The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Alexa Davalos
- I don’t really have any expectations. For me, it’s all about falling in love with a project and being as present and open as you can while filming it. But once you get on the plane at the end of filming, it’s out of your hands. – On her acting career.
- I grew up very comfortable in this bizarre, circus-like existence, but, as comfortable as I was, I was also aware of the struggles that actors go through. A lot of people who come into the profession with these romantic expectations aren’t being very realistic. And because I often saw the other side of that dream, I avoided acting like the plague at first.
- My normal life is, I love to travel and I travel as often as I can. I don’t stay in one place too long. But I’m an avid reader, I guess you could say, I’m a bit of a bookworm.
- I tend to curse in French more often than I do in English.
- In the third episode, I did most of my work with J. August Richards, and we had so much fun it was hard to believe. He’s fantastic and I so adore him. We would sing between takes and do sit ups.
- It was an absolute nightmare. The red leather pants were one thing, but the latex top was like wearing a balloon. It is incredibly hot to wear plastic, but it suited Gwen. It almost became comical at moments. I’m wearing these tight, unique pieces, and to choreograph the fights was very funny.
- To be perfectly honest with you, having a mother as an actress — who I watched struggle tremendously during my childhood — and to watch fluctuations of ups and downs is difficult. She did mainly television, so I think I associated that with a life of inconsistency. As I’ve come into my own, I realize it has nothing to do with the medium. It has broadened my horizons in my own mind and ultimately it is about the character for me. If I read something and I fall in love with the character, no matter what it is, I’m eager to do it. That is what happened with Gwen [on “Angel”].
- We all do a few things that you kind of look back on and think, no one will remember that; that will be fine. It’s being young and finding your way with everything. The older I get, for me it’s about fear. If I read something and it scares the hell out of me, that’s what I want to do. If it’s a challenge and a massive risk and I’m going out on a limb … those are the ones I want. And they are few and far between. I don’t work very much because I’m very specific about what I want to do.
- I’m such a hermit, I can’t tell you. I love my garden (in Los Angeles). I spend a lot of time there. I travel. My heart really is in New York, in France. I go back as often as I can afford to. I read like a crazy person, I play the piano and I’m a photographer. I always say my photography keeps me sane. I spend a lot of time in the darkroom. It’s a very solitary, quiet life when I’m not working.
- Sidney Bechet. I’m an old-timey gal. I have my granddad’s record collection, which I treasure, and my father’s – The Rolling Stones to Sidney Bechet.
