Famous quotes by Mira Sorvino:

"We're going to be a family of four."

"There was a sort of diagram. Everything else that was said was really stuff that came out of our own heads."

"We felt she should have her own history of sexual abuse . . . which makes her feel very deeply about what she is doing, because she's having to look backward into her own vulnerability as well as using all her training and strength,"

"The way that trafficking is stopped is just ordinary people become aware of it and they see something awry and then call in a tip, ... And until people can fathom that their next-door neighbor might have a slave in their house, they're not going to see the signs and think to call the police."

"These are women who are beaten, raped, sold . . . mentally dominated, threatened that their families will be destroyed, ... They have no other options."

"I (didn't) want to feel embarrassed doing this really zany character."

"You know how in high school you do these plays and people come up after the show and they're really excited for you? Well, that's what's happening to me right now."

"Yeah. They're never easy to do. I don't like doing sex scenes! I feel they're really miserable to make."

"I had a Christian upbringing - it was all about sin and guilt. I was very happy just kissing people. I was like the make-out queen - not even second base."

"There's a side of my personality that goes completely against the East Coast educated person and wants to be a pin-up girl in garages across America...there's a side that wants to wear the pink angora bikini!"

"I assume that if people get to know me, they'll like me. If they don't, it's not my problem."

"My major in college was Chinese Studies. It was very intentional."

"I'm doing things that are more artistic again, more close to the material that I love. I don't disparage those things that I did. They're just not as much reflective of who I am."

"There was something about being in front of audiences when I was in elementary school plays that gave me a thrill. It was like the rush you get from a roller coaster drop."

"Sometimes I feel limited by people's perceptions of what I can and cannot do, or what I do or don't look like."

"My father taught me how to substitute realities."

"I was offered one of the roles in a big project that shall remain nameless. I thought the whole thing encouraged violent sex crimes toward women. It made horrible, ghastly rape violence seem sexy. I just didn't want to sign my name to it."

"The Oscars have become such a big deal these days that it's just used as adjective."

"I had been looking for a New York apartment, but I said, Why not give LA a go?"

"I wanted to do something far from my intellectual and physical home, so I went to live in Beijing for eight months and took Mandarin Chinese."
