Amanda Schull Quotes

I know that there is absolutely good in the world Picture Quote #1

Every time I get a script in my inbox, it’s like a little Christmas present. It’s so exciting to see what they’ve cooked up Picture Quote #1

I give myself a Pilates/yoga hybrid mat class almost every day. I also continue to take ballet classes. Both of these practices help me to be aware of my body, my center, and how I move, both with my physical space and my mental space Picture Quote #1

I think it would be fair to say that most female dancers have dealt with, whether it’s an extreme, or minor complex in eating disorders. So the first thing I would say to girls who are feeling that way is you’re not alone. You’re far from alone. You’re the majority. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with what you’re feeling Picture Quote #1

I left home at 14 and I have friends who joined the navy and the army performing troops at 9. I know people [like that]. It’s a very straightforward character Picture Quote #1

In order to dance professionally, you have to start at a young age. No matter what, your muscle structure and your bones have to be groomed from a very young age. Nobody wakes up at 17 and decides to become a ballet dancer Picture Quote #1

I think one of the big challenges about science fiction is finding truth to relate to as an actor Picture Quote #1

Center Stage focused on the drive and what it’s like to be a student, and this is what it’s like to be an adult and what you need to give up in the pursuit of that passion and that focus Picture Quote #1

Nicholas Hytner, who directed Center Stage, is a huge ballet fan. He was completely open, as was Bruce Beresford, to get our perspective. No, we wouldn’t do this. Yes, we would do that. That’s not realistic. So, I feel like Center Stage did well in that respect Picture Quote #1

What a person feels within themselves and about themselves radiates from them. Trust me, I have worked with people - both men and women - who are not what most would consider conventionally attractive, but who exude such a magnetism about them that people are compelled to watch them on stage or screen Picture Quote #1

In high school ethics, they went around and asked what everyone thought their classmates were qualified to do. For me, everyone said actress. But to me it was very much ‘if it happens, it happens.’ Picture Quote #1

Every dancer has injuries, and your injury could happen that season that you were getting that one part that you’ve wanted to do your whole career. So you have to appreciate every single moment until it happens Picture Quote #1

I enjoyed acting growing up; I did musical theater. I had a secret desire to be a television and movie actress, but it wasn’t something I admitted to myself that I wanted to do, I guess Picture Quote #1

I think there is a wonderful trend of strong female characters on television right now Picture Quote #1

Acting is fascinating to me. I love unlocking the mysteries with characters and finding out what would be the most intriguing aspect of that character to exist in. Figuring out a person and getting to be a different person every day, hey - that’s pretty lucky. I don’t have to wake up and be Amanda if I don’t feel like it. You know, that’s fun Picture Quote #1

When I first came USA, I didn’t feel this was my home. This was where I was studying, and then my home was now rejecting me Picture Quote #1

I’m a really good cook. I bake a lot. I cook dinner most nights. I cook everything from Italian food to Mexican food. But if I’m going to some place and it’s a potluck, I’m always the one to bring dessert! Picture Quote #1

I think that’s it’s really important to have good friends. Nowadays, you can text 24 hours a day and be in constant contact, but every once in a while, it’s nice to just get out with your girlfriends and have fun Picture Quote #1

When I am confronted with emotional pain, I try to allow myself the time to properly grieve. We are caring, emotional beings, and attempting to suppress pain will only cause it to negatively manifest itself in other ways Picture Quote #1

As a dancer, I know couples that have stayed married but separated to dance on different continents. Dance in general, but ballet in particular, is such a finite career. You can’t do it later in life, and it’s something that I think a dancer has to have some selfishness to fulfill Picture Quote #1

A lot of professional dancers become professional when they turn 15 or 16 years old, when they’re still children. So you’ve trained every single waking moment up until that point for a career that could maybe only last 10 years, maybe longer if your body holds up, if your injuries are kept at bay Picture Quote #1

I love to work. I know that sounds ridiculous to say because all people love to work, but I love the homework that goes into acting. I love figuring out different ways of playing a scene. I love the energy of being on set. I love not getting enough sleep because I have to wake up early in the morning Picture Quote #1

It’s hard with ballet because your aesthetic really is important. It’s different from acting and from film. Nobody wants to watch somebody who is sickly thin. And it’s interesting because I have danced with people who are ill, have eating disorders, and a light goes off within them Picture Quote #1

Love for me is comfort. I feel most loved and most capable of giving love when I am around people or in places that make me comfortable Picture Quote #1

I also have a routine with breathing and visualization techniques that I go through when I feel overwhelmed or nervous Picture Quote #1

I have different routines for different types of chaos. When I find myself swamped with work and surrounded by people, I try to carve out time to walk my dog alone so I can organize my thoughts Picture Quote #1

That being said, I am not one to feel sorry for myself. I believe it is healthy to honor one’s feelings and do the best we can to learn and grow from them moving forward Picture Quote #1

Every time I get a script in my inbox, it’s like a little Christmas present. It’s so exciting to see what they’ve cooked up Picture Quote #1

Science fiction is one of the smartest genres around because you have to have so much forethought Picture Quote #1

I wouldn’t necessarily consider myself the typical sci-fi genre fan. I do have a lot of sci-fi shows that I enjoy, but I wouldn’t call it my favorite genre of all Picture Quote #1
