Keri Russell Thinking Quotations

It's sad when girls think they don't have anything going on except being pretty.

Who knows? Maybe years from now I'll be on a ranch in Colorado with 10 kids. The whole point of life is to experience a little bit of everything, and I think it's better when there are a few surprises thrown in.

I want to be able to raise my kid. I was totally being a martyr about it at first, thinking I could totally do it on my own, which I did for a while. I've hired a babysitter before, but as for a full-time caregiver... for a control freak like me, it ain't gonna happen!

I don't think I ate a green vegetable until I was 30. I didn't grow up with a mom who enforced that at all.

I'm naturally thin, so I don't have to work too hard at it. I love food, but I also love to work out. I think it makes everything work better.

Acting happened to me. If I had pursued it, I think it would have been like someone going to a bar, desperately looking for love and not finding anyone.

I think people like to be thrilled and excited. And a scary movie is a safe way to do that because you're not actually doing it. It's entertainment. You know that you're in the confines of this two-hour space of safety in the movie house.

I think it's quite common and realistic. There are many stories like this [in Waitress]. [Jenna, my character] marriage looks really horrible up on the screen but I think there are a lot of people in bad relationships who wake up and think to themselves: "Wow, how did I end up here? Why am I still here and so unhappy and not satisfied with my life?"

I tend to come home and eat a bowl of cereal. I'm not thinking about baking a pie when I'm off work.

I don't think, as a 15-year-old, you're that conscious about a lifetime career. I didn't think: "I'm a serious actor." I never studied acting or anything when I was that age.

I think the first time I realized I was actually acting was during Felicity. Before that, I was just going along for the ride.

I think I'm probably more passionate about acting now than when I was a kid. When I was young, I didn't know what I was doing.

I do think it [the Waitress] speaks in a positive way for women and it was surprising for me to see it for the first time as a movie all put together with music. I really liked it a lot.

I think love is a great catalyst for many characters to further the story or their own growth.

I think the good stories are those where the character decides to break away and do something different.
