Quotes

Lucy Lawless

Edit
  • Treat everyone the same until you find out they're an idiot.
  • Usually? I don't even consider myself usually. Soccer mom, that's what I consider myself. Yeah, I think I'm a funny person. I started out in comedy. You know, I remember the moment I realized the value of comedy [ . . . ] I was eight years old and I was sitting in class and I realized that if I just acted really stupid, I could get away with a lot of stuff. And it would defuse a lot of tension and the teachers would focus on you. I just found out the value of being a funny dunce at times.
  • I don't take business seriously, I take acting seriously. I take my job really seriously, but a lot of the job is not about acting, but I don't take business seriously.
  • We live at the edge of the world, so we live on the edge. Kiwis will always sacrifice money and security for adventure and challenge.
  • My plan is to shock people with what I can do, because I've got a few sides to me that I've never used on screen.
  • I am waiting for a sign that will indicate to me what meaning I must give to my life, but right now my existence is satisfactory.
  • For the first time in my life, I put my body and reputation on the line to stand up for my beliefs and do the right thing. I hope I've encouraged other people to do the same.
  • I was black-and-blue for about two years, but it's paid off tremendously. You know, if you get enough whacks, your reflexes pick up, and I've become quite good--if somebody throws keys or something, I can catch them.
