Edie Falco quotes - page 2

I love to hand sew. I sometimes make clothing for my children, which of course they grow out of in a matter of minutes. I thoroughly love it. (Edie Falco)

It's hard to notice things without people noticing me and that takes some getting used to.

Edie Falco

Being a single mother was the right thing for me. But I have a tremendous amount of help from my friends. They're in love with my kids, and my kids are in love with them.

Edie Falco

There's a little good and bad in everyone. Everybody I've ever loved is very complicated.

Edie Falco

The high-grossing films are not all that interesting to me, I have to say. It's not stuff I would want to be in. Yes, you would want the big paycheck, but that's never really been my concern.

Edie Falco

I sort of love reading the scripts and going, 'Oh wow, what a great idea. I never would have thought of that.'

Edie Falco

I never really wanted kids. I didn't not want them, but motherhood just wasn't something that pulled at me.

Edie Falco

It's a very complicated issue, this fame thing - I was not really cut out for it. There are some really fantastic things about it, but it's difficult for a private person like myself.

Edie Falco

My friends started having children after college, while I was pursuing this crazy acting career and living hand to mouth. Plus, all my boyfriends were artists struggling to make a living. Having kids didn't make any sense - why would I take on more of a financial burden when I couldn't even afford a dog?

Edie Falco

I have lots of friends and, like me, they're not married. So my kids have lots of godparents - men and women, gay and straight. My loft is always filled with people helping me out with them and loving them.

Edie Falco

My kids have never seen me scream at anybody. They've never seen an argument. There's never been even a cold silence. And those are things that I grew up with because my parents did end up divorcing. (Edie Falco)

I really am profoundly grateful just in general in my life. I've had an embarrassing amount of good fortune.

Edie Falco

I think there was a time when I considered myself a work addict, but that's no longer accurate. My life has changed so dramatically over the last number of years, especially having a family now. My priorities have shifted.

Edie Falco

I don't watch a lot of television.

Edie Falco

I've also learned to no longer feel guilty if I'm invited out and don't want to go. If I start to say to myself, 'What's wrong with you that you're staying in five nights in a row to watch 'Forensic Files' instead of going out with your friends' I remind myself that it's what I need to do for myself at that point.

Edie Falco

I don't have examples in my life of people who are all good or bad; I have deeply loved many people who are both, and I relate to those kinds of people on a far greater level.

Edie Falco

The common misconception is that as an actress you have to learn what you're doing. No, you just have to make the audience think you've learned it.

Edie Falco

Writers, actors, anybody working on an ensemble-type thing, there are going to be some creaks in the beginning. It seems like there's tremendous potential in just letting things sort of breathe a little bit. It's tremendously important.

Edie Falco

I don't know what it must be like to be a writer in general, but to be a comedy writer, it's got to be something - it's a very special kind of talent.
