You can't not be into basketball and grow up in Chicago or live in L.A., because people are so fanatical about the teams. You know what's going on with the games even if you don't watch.

More quotes by Virginia Madsen
I always tell actors, Don't think of it as unemployment when you don't have a job. You have to think of it as being in preparation for your next job. You have to be always preparing for success.
Virginia Madsen
It would be good if you opened your heart to the fullness of time and spirit.
Virginia Madsen
Men, we don't need you in shining armor. We just need you a little bit brave, just a little bit brave.
Virginia Madsen
You cannot believe how hard it is to try and raise money for a film. I did it for six years and it was such a failure.
Virginia Madsen
I spend a lot of time at my son’s school and I really wanted to do a movie that the kids could see. The good thing about being my age and not having to be the ingenue anymore is that I get to be a mom. I get to have kids in my movies.

I like how wine continues to evolve, like if I opened a bottle of wine today it would taste different than if I'd opened it on any other day, because a bottle of wine is actually alive. And it's constantly evolving and gaining complexity.
Virginia Madsen
I was always an actress, even as a little kid, and fantasy, horror, sci-fi stories are really all about playing make believe. I just never grew out of that.
Virginia Madsen
Dune was really my first Hollywood job. It was such a small part, but I opened the movie. I was about 19 years old and I had to make this speech, and I didn't understand most of the words because they were, you know, words from Dune.
Virginia Madsen
I am a proud mother - that's another reason I love doing any kind of animation. When my son was growing up, if he was watching something animated and I was in it, that was way cooler to him than seeing me in a movie.
Virginia Madsen
A radio play actually ended up being the first acting job I ever had. A lot of times when I'm on camera, I'm playing characters that are more like myself, and I don't get to do a lot of real character work. But when you're doing animation, you are the very epitome of colorful characters. I think I'm just really into make believe.
Virginia Madsen
I have to read comic books all first, because now when you get into graphic novels, they are definitely in deep graphic.
Virginia Madsen
You know, we’re not on stage, we’re not doing a play, so we don’t have a relationship with the audience but going through that process and also just hearing how much people love the film, you feel like you do have a relationship with the audience.
Virginia Madsen
I tend to look for a great script.
Virginia Madsen
I've made more movies than anybody now.
Virginia Madsen
I have good genes. My father is Danish and my mother is Irish and Native American. They both have good skin.
Virginia Madsen
When you're the ingénue no one is really interested in you for that.
Virginia Madsen
I really didn't like Batgirl. I was like, No, if I'm not gonna be Batman, I'm not gonna play. Maybe they could write an evil female super villain who takes over Batman, and nobody knows.
Virginia Madsen
To me it meant, just looking at it from a Maya point of view, it meant that Paul Miles is always moving laterally in his life. And she just wants him to take a couple of steps forward, you know?
Virginia Madsen
Once your acting job is over, you just hope they have a good editor and they put together a good film.
Virginia Madsen
I've spent the last few years just really actively pursuing comedy and that's something I always wanted to know how to do.
