from evi ;
My goal as an actress is to be able to work for as long as I want to work with as little attention and fame as possible.
My idea of true happiness is greeting the sun as gloriously as the sun greets me every day. I really believe that if you can wake up and feel the sunshine pouring in the window and you really feel that it warms your heart, then you feel happy. And it doesnt matter what's happening in your life, your whole world could be falling down, but if that warmth can pierce into you, you're happy.
I tend to appreciate the tiny moments and they make me the happiest.
It's not your circumstances that make or break your day. It's your attitude!
I'm doing everything in my power just to continue to tick along as a normal girl. And fighting the weird, surreal insanity of what my life has become in just a single year.
I am an oddball. So it was nice to finally be a part of something where I felt like I fit. I have very "out there" ideas about life and spirit and energy and living and where we should be directing our energy.
I am a sex symbol in spite of myself.
You can be anyone you want to be now. Nobody knows you. Nobody has an expectation of you. So you choose who you want to be.
I have so much respect for womanhood and femininity and I really believe that as naturally that you can present that, the better..
[On Kate] Yeah. She has completely flipped on her head. She used to be the person everyone else had to take care of, and now she is taking care of everyone else. It is good though. It is fun to see that arc.
But I'm like a man - you know, 'I can do anything.
&& about evi ;
My favorite person to greet when I get to work.. that would have to be Evangeline. She's a great hugger.
- Terry O'Quinn
She deserves it. She's a hottie.
- Matthew Fox
Evi is incredibly charming, and she's fun to be around.
- Matthew Fox
It's all genetics. She doesn't have to work. She's just lucky. No, I'm kidding [laughs]. She is a little machine.
- Josh Holloway
One of the things Evangeline has handled so amazingly is the pressure of the whole thing. I just want to help her in any way I can and make sure nobody is getting in the way of it.
- Matthew Fox
She's so beautiful it's hard to concentrate around her.
- Matthew Fox
She's a Christian, but she's a pottymouth.
- Dominic Monaghan
I saw her videotape that was sent in from an agency in Canada, and I just knew from the audition, by the little choices she made...I have had the experience on Alias and Felicity working with people who had never been given the lead before. And it was clear that this was someone who had a natural gift even if she didn't have a résumé of a dozen roles, let alone one.
- JJ
She knows what's important to her, and she isn't willing to have those things change.
- Dominic Monaghan
Isn't she pretty?
- Dominic Monaghan
She's a wonderful, natural actress. And she ain't ugly.
- Josh Holloway
She's a very, very attractive woman. She's just very real. You know, what you see is what you get.
- Dominic Monaghan
We've scratched beneath the surface of the public persona of Evangeline Lilly and found quite an impressive and authentic young woman who's independent, adventuresome, a goal-setter and a caring humanitarian. She possesses extraordinary qualities and has great integrity and we already see many parallels between her and the Karastan customer who seeks out a distinctive, unapologetic lifestyle.
- David Duncan
She has an absolutely filthy, filthy mouth. She can swear like a sailor and dress provocatively, but that doesn't reflect her beliefs. She's a walking oxymoron.
- Bryan Burk
She ain't ugly, is she? She's a beautiful young lady.
- Josh Holloway
There's a lot of that Christian good girl in her, but sometimes certain things come out of her mouth. She's got the devil mixed in there too.
- Jorge Garcia
When JJ said 'Stop!' and we saw Evi read the scene for the first time, we were all like, 'Get that girl on a plane immediately!'
- Damon Lindelof
I'm madly in love with her.
- Art Streiber
She was beautiful, but there was a goofy quality about her. It didn't feel like she wasn't a human being.
- JJ
She is the most down-to-earth girl and has a wicked sense of humor.
- Lisa Storey
That was awesome! She's like the best, I will say this... I do not believe that there is a better actor in television at climbing trees and picking mangoes than Evangeline Lilly.

° ° ° ° ° °  Connie
Evangeline plays Connie James in this movie where an elite Army bomb squad unit is forced to play a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse in the chaos of war. They must come together in a city where everyone is a potential enemy and every object could be a deadly bomb. One of those men happens to be her husband, Staff Sergeant William James, played by Jeremy Renner. He has successfully disabled 873 devices, approaching the job with the no-nonsense grit of a Bigelow hero and the recklessness too. But as the unit faces tougher challenges with each new bomb, the men start to fight James's bullish methods. They have only thirty-eight days left in their rotation. They want to live to see day thirty-nine, and Connie along with their young child agrees.  Claire
In this movie Evangeline plays a character who is trying to move on after losing a child and becoming estranged from her husband Nathan. He's a brilliant New York lawyer who leads a life of professional success, but his private life is pretty dismal since he divorced Claire - Evangeline Lilly - his only love. Until he meets Doctor Kay, a mysterious doctor who introduces himself as a "Messenger." He claims that he can sense when certain people are about to die, and that he is sent to help them put their life in order before it's too late. Nathan doesn't believe a word of this, but soon afterwards he witnesses some disconcerting scenes which seem to confirm the doctor's claims.
