Check out the absolutely striking Uma Thurman gracing the upcoming issue of Harper’s Bazaar. Stunningly spendiferous! Here are some highlights from the 37-year-old actress’ interview from the magazine:

Uma on the importance of looks: “I think women have to be extremely talented and very good-looking if they’re going to be allowed to walk on a set; there’s a lot more leeway for talented men to be more interesting.”

Uma on her career over the years: “…no decade has been disastrous, and I’ve gotten away with murder anyway.”

Uma on life’s transitions: “Look, my aim is true. I wish everybody no ill. I don’t really participate in any mudslinging or such. I like people to see their lives blossom and not go poorly for them.”

Uma on motherhood and traveling for her new long-distance romance: “My house is always a disaster. I’m completely uncentered in my tastes. I can never finish anything…Before I had kids, I was even worse. I would constantly move. I’ve made huge strides for the sake of my dear children so they’re not subject to adolescent homelessness from me.”

Uma on the future: “I always thought things would slow down and I’d go back to school. I’d study history, language, culture, psychology. My curiosities are broad; that’s one of my best qualities, if I say so myself…It sounds like bragging.”

Uma on her accomplishments: “You know, I think actresses are imagined to be these subjects of great vanity…Life is change, physicality changes. It’s transient, and that’s a beautiful and a painful thing. When I look into the mirror, I think, What have I really done? Not much, if you really want to know. What do I need to do to do more?”
