‘Real Steel’ was this lovely little piece where I held a cup of coffee and talked to Hugh Jackman for three weeks. And that sounded kind of nice. – Evangeline Lilly
To put it simply – you know, a lot of people believe that the benefit of this job is fame and fortune. I believe that you pay for the fortune through the fame. I don’t buy into the notion that being famous is somehow a good thing, or an exciting thing, or a wonderful thing. – Evangeline Lilly
If one day a TV series comes into my head, and that is what I want to write, I’ll write it. It just depends what story is in my brain at the time. – Evangeline Lilly

I’m a good Canadian girl. I miss all that good stuff. I miss tobogganing and I miss snowboarding, but I’ve also learned to surf and I’ve become a water baby which I used to be relatively terrified of the water and I kayak all the time now and I’m able to run year round on the beach which you can’t obviously do in Canada. – Evangeline Lilly

I am an opportunist. When opportunities come, and I see them serving my grander goals in life, I take them. – Evangeline Lilly
I’m very picky when it comes to men. I come across a man who I’m really attracted to about once every five years. – Evangeline Lilly
There’s nothing more frustrating than when fans use a nickname. That’s like people you don’t know using names from people that you’re intimate with. Like if my mom has a nickname and a fan finds it out and starts using it, that’s creepy. – Evangeline Lilly
I do love ‘Star Wars,’ although I’m not one of those crazy fans who knows everything about everyone. – Evangeline Lilly
There are jobs to be created on both sides of the climate argument. Whether we are investing in oil or sun, coal or wind, gas or algae, the economy will be stimulated by the investment. The economy, unlike each of us, is not swayed by ideology. – Evangeline Lilly
My partner doesn’t read. He’s not illiterate – he just chooses not to read – and I love reading. I’m obsessed with reading. – Evangeline Lilly
If you are not a clearly defined human being, it is very hard to define your image… What I’ve realized in my own journey in fashion is that I’m not that defined. – Evangeline Lilly
Your mind and soul are the kings of your physique way more than any exercise you do. – Evangeline Lilly
The difference in my body from pre-pregnancy to post-baby was night and day. I didn’t have the strength, I didn’t have the flexibility, I didn’t have the stamina, I didn’t have the mobility. I felt like I was handicapped. – Evangeline Lilly
If I were to live in Africa, serving the poor, the number-one thing I’d miss wouldn’t be running water or electricity – it would be style… being able to get dressed up and feel beautiful. – Evangeline Lilly
