I do seem to have a bit of a predilection for movies that say something transgressive.

Maggie Gyllenhaal 77 quotes

I remember people saying, "Be...

I remember people saying, "Believe me, everything in your life is going to change..." And I thought, "Why? That's such a bourgeois way of thinking." And then you have a child and yes, everything changes. It affects the way we live, what we do, and where we go - everything. And I wouldn't have in any other way.

I think most human beings, even if you're in a situation that's constricting or complicated or hard, they try to survive.

Maggie Gyllenhaal 77 quotes

Being a mother has absolutely...

Being a mother has absolutely forced me. You have to write things down and have systems for all of it. And then you set up systems and you realize they don't work.

Maggie Gyllenhaal 77 quotes

Sometimes things go really we...

Sometimes things go really well, and sometimes they don't, and it's not ultimately the most important thing.

Maggie Gyllenhaal 77 quotes

What I think is new is the we...

What I think is new is the wealth of roles for actual women in television and in film. That's what I think is revolutionary and evolutionary.

I would like to have a home in the country that I could go to. First in this country and the other in the Mediterranean.

Maggie Gyllenhaal 77 quotes

Sometimes I'll read things in...

Sometimes I'll read things in the script and think, "That's not how humans behave," or "I don't understand how to do that role and make it seem like I'm not some kind of strange alien or on a sitcom." I don't get it, and when I feel that way, I have to listen to my instinct. My initial instinct does lead me in a direction that I can trust.

These past couple of years have been about learning to not sabotage myself in a subtler way - for instance, even just by putting moisturiser on when I get out of the shower. Learning to honour myself and believing that I'm worth taking care of.

Some people would say you need what you need to work, but I need very little to work, because I learned how to make movies on tiny movies. It's all kind of easy for me.

Maggie Gyllenhaal 77 quotes

I don't feel that way now. I ...

I don't feel that way now. I don't want to make movies for the 10 people who feel exactly the same way about the world that I do. I want to make movies that many, many people see, and I want to say something that I believe is important in a way that people who don't agree with me can hear. And that involves making different kinds of choices, but it's not like a compromise that I'm making. It's that something else interests me, something else is appealing to me.

Who can I trust? You have to i...

Who can I trust? You have to invest in somebody and chances are you're probably going to invest in somebody who's going to deceive you. I've been conned a couple of times, but now I'm a little more savvy.

A play is much easier to maintain your personal life with because if you're rehearsing, you're working like from 11 to 6 or 11 to 5 and you get to have your whole morning and your whole evening. When you're doing the play, you have all day.

I don't see that many movies lately that are actually about something, that are trying to challenge something about the way that people interact.

I have a couple of girlfriends who are like, healing. We take care of each other. They know when I need to be taken care of.

Maggie Gyllenhaal 77 quotes

If I've learned anything as a mom with a daughter who's three, I've learned that you cannot judge the way another person is raising their kid. Everybody is just doing the best they can. It's hard to be a mom.

I'm 37 and I was told recently I was too old to play the lover of a man who was 55. It was astonishing to me. It made me feel bad, and then it made feel angry, and then it made me laugh.

I've noticed a lot of people talking about the wealth of roles for powerful women in television lately. And when I look around the room at the women here and I think about the performances that I've watched this year, what I see actually are women who are sometimes powerful and sometimes not. Sometimes sexy and sometimes not. Sometimes honourable and sometimes not. And what I think is new is the wealth of roles for actual women in television and in film. That's what I think is revolutionary and evolutionary and it's wh

There was something to me that was really compelling about that woman, already knowing she couldn't get pregnant. When I made that movie I was maybe 24, and to be 24 and already know you can't get pregnant, that was really interesting to me.
