Piper Perabo Quotations

There's no changing your mind about whom you love. That's part of the tough thing about being in love - it's sort of undeniable.

In Texas it's always hot, dry, sunny, not a cloud in the sky.

I got lost a lot, and I was a really bad waitress I got lost on the subway.

I think that you love who you love, and there are people who you love that people aren't going to understand why, and that sort of doesn't really matter.

I'm NOT lost, they just moved my street.

I was never the girl who walked down the centre of the hallway snapping people out of her way.

She tries to get a waitressing job for a while - I mean, she's looking for a while before she finds Coyote Ugly - and it's hard to get a waitressing job in the city.

I've never been one for sitting on beaches.

I was bookish and dorky in high school, so the best part of this movie was getting to be on the other side.

It's like a blind turn on a highway: You can't see what's coming, so you don't really know how to prepare.

So I started to learn guitar right away.

Well, love is confusing at all ages, but especially when you're 17.

But Paulie gives all of herself away, and so to create a love like that and a person who would give themselves away was what I thought was going to be difficult. I was little scared of such a challenge.

I mean, its hard to be an actor in the city - trying to make it as an actor - because you waitress all night, you get home really late and you're super tired and your feet hurt.

There are a lot of people who wait tables. And especially because you can do it at night and you can do your work in the day, she and I had a very similar experience.

It takes a lot of guts to get up on top of a bar and dance.

I live not too far from it in New York City.

Let me tell you who I am: I'm a girl from New Jersey who moved to New York and worked in a bar while trying to make a living at what I really wanted to do, which was act.

To me that was interesting. A lot of romantic comedies, it's so obvious she shouldn't be with X and she should be with Y. This is more complicated than that.

What is wrong? This train is supposed to stop here!

Violet: You always said I could grow up to be anything. Mr. Sanford: I never said "songwriter in New York.

The choreography was specific to be moves any girl could pull off just jumping up on the bar.

One of the great thing about New York is the neighborhood - you go for your walk in the morning and you know your dry cleaning lady, you know the guy in your coffee shop - that's your neighborhood and I love that.

I had just done what she does in the story just about a year earlier - I moved from New Jersey and came to New York and was working at a bar, and you know, trying to make it.

I really like the idea of restaurant life, especially in New York where everyone has small apartments - that restaurant culture where you sit at a table for a long time and the afternoon goes by and you're kind of living there. I like that more than nightlife.

I believe in following your instincts with the people that you like and who you like to be with.

And so when I graduated I moved to New York, and I was waitressing here and auditioning - and I got my first job pretty soon after.

I invest because I'm really a firm believer in letting the artist make their work, if you choose to work with an artist then you give them the go-ahead.

But at school, I wasn't athletic, and if you're not athlete in high school, it's kind of hard to find your place, so play practice seemed perfect, especially if you were as uncoordinated as I was.

Well, usually when I finish one character, I'm looking for a role that's really different.

To me, a great love story is a great love story, and it doesn't matter what gender is involved,

I was glad to have had some dance background because some of the dances are pretty wild.

I can understand in some sense, having played the character, how unimaginably frustrating it is for people to tell you that you can't love who you love, because you ain't going to change it, and so they have to get out of your way

It was intimidating to play a deaf character. There's a whole culture in the deaf community and I really wanted to know a lot about that and honor it in the work.

That's what I think we're all looking for - an honest love wherever you can find it.

I don't want to brag, but I'm a pretty good driver.
