I didnt understand how you could be an actor if you didnt also study philosophy and study political science, astronomy. And also just go out and live life and have experiences. – Brit Marling
As an actor, you have an accumulated knowledge base. But theres also something about it that every time you really feel like youre doing it for the first time you have no idea whether youre capable of it. – Brit Marling
A lot of people think, Ill give acting or poetry or filmmaking a try. And if it doesnt work out Ill go get a law degree, do something else thats more practical. For me I went the reverse way. I lived the back-up plan. – Brit Marling
I feel like Im a much better person when Im developing my imagination and my innocence and my vulnerability. I like that version of me better than the version where Im just working on my analytical mind. – Brit Marling
