Quote by Vera Farmiga

“I really don't feel a need to be famous, but I do feel a need to make a difference, to shed light on human emotion through acting. It sounds strange, but I don't recognize myself in the women in most films. And I should be up there somewhere. We all should.” quote by Vera Farmiga — Download Open image
