"I grew up in a mostly Buddhist environment."

Buddhist

Quote_1.png
Uma Thurman
"When asked if I consider myself Buddhist, the answer is, Not really. But it's more my religion than any other because I was brought up with it in an intellectual and spiritual environment. I don't practice or preach it, however."

Religion

Quote_1.png
Uma Thurman
"Before I had my child, I thought I knew all the boundaries of myself, that I understood the limits of my heart. It's extraordinary to have all those limits thrown out, to realize your love is inexhaustible."

Love

Quote_1.png
Uma Thurman
"It's hard sometimes if you think a character should look a certain way and you're being pushed to do it differently. I've had fights over that. That's why it's so important that you work with good people."

Work

Quote_1.png
Uma Thurman
"Desperation is the perfume of the young actor. It's so satisfying to have gotten rid of it. If you keep smelling it, it can drive you crazy. In this business a lot of people go nuts, go eccentric, even end up dead from it. Not my plan."

Business

Quote_1.png
Uma Thurman
"Modeling is basically 'Buy more stuff! Don't you want some more stuff? It will make you look ten years younger and men will like you!' If I'd wanted to be a salesperson, I would have got a job selling."

Men

Quote_1.png
Uma Thurman
"I was an escapee of childhood. I always wanted to grow up."

Childhood

Quote_1.png
Uma Thurman
"I had to go to a mirror and look at it. I couldn't picture myself in my own head. I had no image beyond a stick figure. I wasn't a mean person as a kid, or dumb, and something has to be said to justify excluding you."

Dumb

Quote_1.png
Uma Thurman
"Fun wouldn't be the right word... it was the most difficult, challenging, physical, extraordinary stretch I've ever had to make, in all those wild regards."

Fun

Quote_1.png
Uma Thurman
"I was not particularly bright, I wasn't very athletic, I was a little too tall, odd, funny looking, I was just really weird as a kid."
