Famous quotes by Maggie Gyllenhaal:

"[He's making] a memorial service, honoring what happened. That is how it feels. ... It's all these feelings — it's numbness, it's anger, it's fear, it's pain, it's so many things. And you go through it, as Oliver demands that I do."

"I'm excited to be a part of this important project. Will and John are genuine heroes and I think their wives, Allison and Donna, are heroes, too. I feel privileged to be part of a project that will remember how we all came together on that day."

"You're invited to tons of parties, and you'll wear these shoes and that dress, and it can be enticing, but I think it also sucks you dry. If you do it a little, sure, it's fun, but too much and you start to lose your footing."

"I want to have some effect on the way the world works in whatever way I can, and I also want to have the power to help get the movies that I think are important made."

"I made a movie where I played a girl that just got out of prison and we shot it very very quickly but very intensely-that took me a long time to get over."

"On a film, I was always acting. I was either changing my clothes really quickly and wiping off the lipstick and putting on the other lipstick and then working constantly, constantly."

"There was something to me that was really compelling about that woman, already knowing she couldn't get pregnant. When I made that movie I was maybe 24, and to be 24 and already know you can't get pregnant, that was really interesting to me."

"I don't see that many movies lately that are actually about something, that are trying to challenge something about the way that people interact."

"I studied English literature; I took 2 independent religion classes, but I wasn't a religion major really."

"Ten years ago, it was really difficult for a young actress to walk onto a set and disagree with the director and having that be OK and have a conversation about it and everyone be cool with it."

"I feel so gratified about having finished college. I learned how to articulate myself. It gave me confidence more than anything. And also the ability to analyze the text."

"Having an education is invaluable."

"We were lounging around in this beautiful house in LA, and I'm coming from NY, so sometimes when we weren't working I would just sit on those folding chairs."

"I think Secretary's funny, it is about sex, and there's a lot of sex in it, sex is the key, but you're talking about a lot of other complicated things."

"I feel there is no shortage of real interesting women's roles. But I found them and did all of them just now."

"I think sex is very interesting for most people, but I'm interested in sex as a way of communication, I'm not that interested in the fantasy version of a sex scene."

"You have a right to your opinion about the work that you're doing. An artist is as equally important as the director. If you believe that, you can work in any circumstances."

"I liked that idea. Someone who's trying to perform herself and not succeeding."

"You're not going to do good work if you're not choosing something because it inspires you."

"Who can I trust? You have to invest in somebody and chances are you're probably going to invest in somebody who's going to deceive you. I've been conned a couple of times, but now I'm a little more savvy."

• Just The Way You Are - Maggie Gyllenhaal
• Maggie Gyllenhaal - Maggie Gyllenhaal
• I Can't Wait - Maggie Gyllenhaal

Don't go changing, trying to please me
You never let me down before
I don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore
I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are
Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care
I don't want clever conversation
don't want to work that hard
I just want some someone to talk to
I want you just the way you are.
I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
What will it take till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you.
I said I love you and that's forever
And this I promise from my heart
I could not love you any better

(Happy Endings Soundtrack)
How lucky am i
I'm young and i don't even care,
How lucky am i
I'm young,
With the few bucks to spend,
And i don't even try
No, it's all in my mind
How lucky am i
I can't believe all my good fortune,
I count my blessings every day,
Should hurt to be so fun loving
My life must be a crime.
How lucky am i
I'm young and i don't even care,
How lucky am i
I'm young,
With the few bucks to spend,
And i don't even try
No, it's all in my mind
How lucky, how.
How lucky... how...
How lucky am i
How luky am i

I get so excited just to see your face
For the first time I have found my place
And everything about this feels so strange
Used to be so easy to get myself through
Made it different now I don't know what I'm gonna do
And everything about this feels so strange
And I'm just hoping that you feel the same
But I can't wait for you to change
No, I can't wait another day
Everything you do makes me crazy for you
Baby, I can't wait
