    Lucy Lawless's quotes

  • Lucy Lawless photo
  • “I really was covering things. They really were going to use the footage that I and my sidekick were taking. Sometimes he was on the camera, sometimes I had the camera, but we were really rolling video. We were making a film within a film.”
  • “Everybody's on edge just by her very presence.”
  • “I certainly want to work with Bruce and Renée and Ted again, ... The point being is that we would love to work together, but these things are harder to coalesce than people might think.”
  • “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.”
  • “[Vampire Bats is slated to premiere Oct. 30.] There will be hoards of vampire bats descending on Beverly Hills, ... We'll see if they can find any real flesh to puncture. I don't know.”
  • “I am not intimidating. I am a woman's woman. I love hanging out with women. And people are really inspired by this show.”
  • “We were shooting video, and they are using footage that I and my crew actually shot. It was really exciting, worrying about the camera angle you are getting, and you were truly being your character and fully concerned about shooting the footage. It was like shooting a movie within a movie.”
  • “It's interesting in this case, because [my character's] a journalist, and Australians have such a reputation for having been such a major presence in the world of tabloid journalism.”
  • “Sunday morning we realized that with a category five [hurricane], the walls would be breached, so we just drove,”
  • “I turned on the television and saw 'category 5,' ”
  • “I'm thrilled that women are encouraged to follow their dreams and I am equally pleased that young men are getting a new view of women: an unapologetic woman.”
  • “There is nothing I would love more than to film near my house in Los Angeles. But if you have to go away, Louisiana is a wonderful place to be. It's such an evocative place, visually and culturally.”
  • “I would have moved there. I totally fell in love with it.”
  • “Then we heard it was going to be a Category 5 storm, and I rang the producer and said, 'Let's get out of here. This is crazy'.”
  • “Yeah. I'm saving the world from vampire bats, ... It's very serious business.”
  • “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.”
  • “Josh Becker came up with this really great storyline for a movie that we'd all love to do,”
  • “It's really fun and the people who make it are fun. They don't take themselves too seriously.”
  • “The traffic was going 1 mile per hour sometimes,”
  • “Treat everyone the same until you find out they're an idiot.”
  • “I've been staying in a lovely little house in the French Quarter, and at first I planned to ride out the storm,”
  • “I think a movie would be great, and I'd love to do it. I've been wanting to do it for years. Nobody can agree who owns the rights, and it's a big fat pain in the ass.”
  • “You haven't heard it yet, you know.”
  • “[Would she do a series based on her character?] Oh, you know producers, ... They're always trying to wrangle something. I wouldn't put it past them. Sure, I'd consider it.”
  • “I've seen photos of locations where we've shot, and there's total, total devastation.”
