Sutton Foster quotes about
I think cheating can inherently mean a deeper problem, someone is acting out.
If you're in a relationship and someone was cheating, it could be a complete reflection of the relationship itself.
I try to have a very optimistic outlook on life, I try not to take anything too seriously, I try to and I do find a ton of joy and happiness in my life and I think that helps you stay youthful.
I try to exercise, I try to think of it less as vanity and more like, how do I stay healthy from the inside out? I try to make my insides happy and healthy and I think that reflects on the outside.
I feel excited about getting older as an actress, too. I think there are some amazing opportunities around the corner and I don't need to hold on to myself or who I was when I was 25.
I love to teach, I love to draw, I love animals. So I don't feel like I am relying on one thing to lead me in my career.
I've never had to deal with ageism - so far - in my career; I have been able to navigate my career and getting older and the roles and opportunities that have come to me.
They say for every light on Broadway there is a broken heart, an unrealized dream. And that’s the same in any profession. So you have to want it more than anyone else, and you have to be your own champion, be your own superstar, blaze your own path, say yes to opportunity, follow your instincts, be eager, and passionate, keep learning, nurture your real, lasting relationships, don’t be a jerk, and free your imagination so you can become all that you want to be.
Even when I’m not working, I’m still working on something because I just want to create something.
I'm used to working hard. Theater can be very grueling, and that's all I've ever known. It's what I've done for 20 years, which is crazy.
It's weird to have leisure - to have time off. I'm not used to it.
I grew up sort of a geeky, tall kid, and I think I was always the one trying to make my friends laugh.
And, as an adult, I tried skiing, and I ended up in tears.
I'd had the theater background for so long that I know that world inside out; I just didn't know the pace of how a TV set works, like how a show shoots.
