Famous quotes by Meg Tilly:

"I think it is important to say that though, of course, it is wonderful to have children, it is a disservice to others not to also say how hard it is to do it alone."

"I wasn't really interested in doing television. I don't have that much ambition. My agent, Eileen Feldman, has all the ambition for me."

"That is why it's so fun to make movies... you get to do lots of things you would never do in your normal life."

"I'm the type of person who likes to know exactly how many steps she will have to take and when she should look up."

"Acting's not my whole life. My children definitely come first."

"I really enjoy acting. At home I can't even finish a sentence, and here I am reading these wonderful lines. I think it must be every housewife's dream, to be an actress part-time."

"My career is every housewife's dream. Someone drives you to work, when you get there they make you look beautiful, they feed you... and they bring you anything you want. And you get to finish sentences, something it's simply not possible to do around three children. I'm so lucky!"

"I paid more attention to the way I looked before my children were born. Afterward, it wasn't important to look exactly right."

"I limited myself to introduce a change in my way of thinking and the way I see things. When I look at my child, I do it in a different way then when I'm contemplating a chair. They are different... the child is a living being, and the chair is an object."

"Now I feel like one of those Rodeo riders. I'm on top of a wild horse that won't stop jumping and kicking, and it is really exciting but I grab on to his ears and his mane and I'm screaming. The result is fun, but it's also scary!"

"I know that in order to be considered successful, you're supposed to do two or three movies a year. I only work once every year-and-a-half, sometimes two years. I have children to raise."

"If they have covered your face with latex, you have to control yourself mentally so you won't think. If you start thinking, you will succumb to panic. I had a bit of a cold, and frankly I didn't have a good time."

"It helps when 1 can send the children off to their fathers so I can support my new book with a national publicity tour. I started writing the book when my daughter was 5. It took me almost four years."

"I still have a problem with nuns. I follow them around like a kitten with a ball of yarn. After a while, all my characters become very close friends."

"I'm not that fashion-conscious. A lot of times, when women are appearing to be so perfect, it's because they're a mess underneath."

"I didn't plan to act, but I'm glad I'm doing it - and I just want to keep getting better."

"I wanted to write something from a child's viewpoint... Five of the characters I have played in movies have either been abused or became abusers, themselves, and I just kind of felt like there was a need."

"If you meet people who have been successful in Hollywood, or look a their photographs, you see a haunted look in their eyes, you sense a trapped feeling."

"Horror movies can be very interesting because they can deal with intangible subjects that are full of emotion."
