Lily Rabe's quotes

  • It's very hard when you're doing a new play that you believe in, and you want to tell the story in the best way possible.
  • It's sort of scary to work with your parents when you're in the same business. But there was something so very safe about that. Acting with her was just like working with a wonderful actress who just happens to be my best friend and also my mother.
  • Listen, a cable series is a beautiful thing because there's such amazing writing happening on television, and it's a schedule that allows you to do a play or two. There's a reason everybody wants that job!
  • I can't actually think of a job where I was relaxed the whole time. I don't think I would want to do that job. When I break into a cold sweat when I'm reading, I think, 'Oh good. That's what's supposed to be happening.'
  • I did have wonderful things to draw from, from my own experience and also just from friends and people I'd gone to school with who were very much immersed in this world right now.
  • I will say that I've been lucky enough never to have to do a job I didn't want to do, or a play I wasn't in love with.
  • Before I ever start a job that I'm really excited about, I usually have some sleepless nights or weeks or months. But that anticipation for a person like me... I don't do so well with a lot of time off.
  • When I was teeny tiny, I definitely had a voice that didn't quite match the way I looked at five.
  • All I really want to do is someday be in a western. If I could be on a horse with a rifle, I would be a really happy camper.
  • I think every script I read has something that sends me into a state of panic but that usually makes me want to do it.
  • Mark Conseulos is so amazing.
  • When I was in high school and college, my other real focus was, actually, fiction writing. So in college, I had done all these seminars with these various writers-in-residence.
  • Being a part of the theater community has been important to me from the time I was a child, through my parents.
  • I am my parents' daughter, and I always want to be. But I first wanted to make sure that I was standing on my own two feet.
  • So, for the most part, I really like when I read a scene that scares me and makes me sweat a little bit, thinking about doing it. That's usually a good sign to me.
  • Truthfully, I don't know how those special effects people do it.
  • You want to feel like people are hiring you because they want to work with you, not because of who your parents are.
  • For a long time I was cautious of working with my parents because I wanted to feel separate from them in the community. Now there's no more wasting time.
  • I know it's such a boring interview sometimes with us at 'American Horror Story', but I just can't say a word. I would certainly love to be back, that's for sure. It's such a great job.
  • The focus of our family life was homework and what was for dinner; getting to ballet rehearsal and getting my brother to soccer.
  • To be working in the theater steadily and to be recognized and appreciated by the community means the world.
  • The only thing that matters is the theater!
