Elizabeth Marvel's quotes

• I'm dying for people to let me be funny!
• I think being a mom changed me, and now it's not just about what I want to do and what's sort of interesting, but what I absolutely have to do.
• When I finished high school, I didn't have much direction - I was a Deadhead kid who ended up bumming around London seeing a lot of theater. That's where I saw the performance that made me want to act: Vanessa Redgrave doing 'A Touch of the Poet.'
• My God, I have so much bounty in my life.
• If I'm asking people to give me two hours of their time, it's because I really feel like they need to listen to what the writer is talking about.
• If you can see it, you can be it. And I believe in that.
• I've been around the block.
• I never had any preconceived ideas about acting, because I always thought I was going to be a visual artist.
• Personally, I don't want to do theater that's very stylish, when it's just stories on stage that are basically the same as TV or film.
• I was a spooky kid; that was just my nature.
• In some ways, I missed my era because I'm big and messy and have big feelings and take up space on a stage rather than being diminutive and childlike in my woman-ness.
• I get to play a lot of powerful, smartest women in the room. And that's deeply satisfying.
• Tim Burton is an artist who has had a huge influence on me. I definitely share his sensibility. It's a joyful approach to darkness.
• As an actress, you have to be very naive.
• Whenever I approach any character, I try to find examples to draw upon.
• I love seeing people in their mess. I find that heartwarming. Charm just doesn't interest me. If I want to see charming people, I can watch TV.
• Trying to find a way to represent something that is truly frightening on stage is a fascinating challenge.
• When I was nursing my son, you're up all the time during the first year, and you're sort of brain dead. So I'd find myself watching Turner Classic Movies at odd hours.
• When I work onstage, I want to play roles that have real, deep theatricality, that aren't the sort you would easily see on television and in the movies.
• There are lots of rats. It's a dirty little secret at the Delacorte Theatre.
• I think every actor has those performances they've seen, the person who made them realize that's what they wanted to do.
• If someone can make money from you, you can do more things, and eventually, you can do things you come up with.
• There comes a point in any project where you have to say - whether you like or understand the character, or the whole play for that matter - 'I believe!'
• I've been told I'm bright. But when I act, I get incredibly stupid. I feel my intellect slowing down. I feel it happening physically. And that's not negative in acting!
• I have no ability or interest to play that weak, beaten person.
• I know all my tricks, and I'm pretty bored with them, so if that's all someone wants, I'd rather wait for TV money and not work so hard.
• I just love the idea of doing an all-female play on Broadway.
• Every time I do a play, I'm like, 'When do I get to do the one where I wear a gown, sit in a chair, and say funny things?' I'd love to do that.
• I see a lot of art; we see a lot of music, films at Sundance... that influences me and informs me more than theater just because I make a bigger effort to see other art forms.
• The audience has its own gestalt, and it becomes another character - a character that changes each night.
• The first play I ever did was with Michael Langham, Brian Bedford, and Colm Feore, at Stratford Festival. That was my first professional job, and I got to work with Garland Wright and so many great artists.
• We have to be able to use our imaginations to make the character's experiences real to us.
• I will happily work anywhere they need me to if they pay me well.
• I'm not familiar with an unaccepting family. But in my profession, nothing can be foreign.
• Who wouldn't want to play the leader of the free world?
• I have to say, it seems to be the older I get, the better the work gets. When has that been true?
• I was in several Shakespeare in the Park productions in my younger years, but I've been busy with other things for a while.
• I went to an art school in high school and got in a little trouble like you do when you're a teenager and not being closely supervised. I did. I followed the Dead around, and it was fun. It was great. It was kind and sweet and lovely.
• It's really interesting because I'm a Quaker... so it's been radical to me to be hired by the Department of Defense under contract.
• We are in this amazing age of television where there's an incredible amount and an incredible quality of television, of long-form narrative.
• You always hear about the disempowered actor, their fate in other people's hands. It's just really wonderful to experience it the other way around.
• How do you stand tall and strong as a woman while trying to be the smartest woman in the room and try to remain non-threatening?
• I don't believe in saying no.
• It's all really nice to have my pretend Secret Service people paying me respect, but the moment I walk in the door, it's back to being 'Mom.'
• OK, so I'm a working mom that also gets to kiss George Clooney. That's a little bit of a perk of the job.
• I think there is a certain gravitas about me. My energy can be very big and yet contained.
• You know, the '80s, as crazy as the '80s were, that was a surprisingly kind and generous environment that I found myself in as a teenager.
• By nature, my default place is a very introverted one, so it's funny to be in such an extroverted profession. I'm a little inappropriately in it.
• I don't look presidential. I don't wear, you know, three-piece suits and have my hair perfectly coiffed.
• I'm a hypervisual person.
