The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Lili Taylor

  • When it’s working, what acting is really about is getting into the essence of a moment in a creative, joyous way – through whatever frees you up.
  • If someone puts up $100 million on a movie, they’re gonna be concerned about whether they’ll get it back. So they’re not gonna make a movie about three girls, you know?
  • I see my job as an actor to be as good a channel as I can be. Acting is a gift, and I have respect for it.
  • Cannes is a very strange place. I tried to show up as best I could and to try not to be cynical.
  • As a woman, a lot of stories haven’t been told and we’ve got a lot of catching up to do.
  • There’s been a slow death in a way. On the positive side, there are films getting into the Academy Awards that wouldn’t have, but on the negative side, financiers are now dominant and making all the decisions. I can’t count the ways a director’s vision is compromised.
  • I love Central Park. I spend a lot of time in there. I try and get in there whenever I can.
  • It’s been very important for me to follow my gut or my heart, or whichever organ you want to go by.
  • I tried to do the commercial thing. But I don’t want to keep shoving Twinkies down everyone’s throat. People are hungry for something of more substance.
  • The weird thing about this business – and I’m sure this operates in many other things, but it’s very present and acute in this business – is that a lot of people don’t realize that they have power. Particularly actors.
