Actress Quotes

Education is huge for me. I went to public school until I turned thirteen, and was lucky enough to afford college once I became successful as an actress Picture Quote #1

In high school, I wanted to be an actress. Until I got to college and took some creative writing courses. Then I decided I wanted to become a novelist Picture Quote #1

There is no model, no actress, no Miss America contender that can outshine a happy, confident, secure woman Picture Quote #1

I still love coming into work everyday after so many years working as an actress. I’ve been working more or less continuously and I find I have to really want to do the project to make it work because you have to put such an enormous amount of effort into it Picture Quote #1

Oh, I just love being a character actress. You have a lot of fun, and not only that, you save tons on cosmetic surgery because you never have to have liposuction Picture Quote #1

I realize now that I’ve hoped to be great - as an actress, as a mother - because I want to embody the greatness of women who didn’t get to be all they could have been. Their dignity, their courage, and their brilliance make me strive to be better. They’re a part of me Picture Quote #1

I love Joan Collins. She’s a wonderful lady. She has such courage. She’s such a good actress Picture Quote #1

When you’re portraying someone that really existed, there has to be a time as an actress where you leave reality and move into the fantasy world so you can do your job of creating a character Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to be famous as a movie star and have the whole world love me, I want to be a creative actress Picture Quote #1

My dad was a very funny man - he’s the one who taught me life would be awfully hard without humor! I’m sure his Irish wit in some way influenced my decision to become an actress Picture Quote #1

I want to be a lawyer, a dancer, an actress, a mother, a wife, a children’s author, a distance runner, a poet, a pianist, a pet store owner, an astronaut, an environmental and humanitarian activist, a psychiatrist, a ballet teacher, and the first woman president Picture Quote #1

I was out dancing with one actress or another. And that got press. Even when it didn’t, the whole town knew I was a dancing fool, and since I couldn’t very well dance with a man, they saw me dancing with a lady, and they assumed the rest Picture Quote #1

I wouldn’t date an actress. There’s only room for one actor in my life and I’m it. Too difficult. On the one hand, they understand the job. But on the other hand, it’s very competitive within the relationship. Two actors, say one becomes a mega-star and the other doesn’t Picture Quote #1

I always say that in my career as an actress, I’ve always worked with people like David Lynch or Guy Maddin or Peter Weir who are considered not mainstream directors and that could be because they are like my dad. They are pioneers, and pioneers, by definition, invent something new Picture Quote #1

I announced to my mother one day when I was 8 that I wanted to be a serious actress Picture Quote #1

I love playing serious! That’s a relief for me. It means something. It sounds dead corny and cheesy, but on a day-to-day basis, you can’t just let loose and cry. So as an actress playing those gritty roles, I can play it quite decently Picture Quote #1

My mom graduated from the University of Michigan, which is a great school. Then she got her Master’s from NYU. She wanted to be an actress, so when she graduated, she had a dream, and she started following it. She moved to New York and took acting classes with people like Denzel Washington Picture Quote #1

I enjoyed acting growing up; I did musical theater. I had a secret desire to be a television and movie actress, but it wasn’t something I admitted to myself that I wanted to do, I guess Picture Quote #1

I came to Los Angeles only after filming ‘A Good Day to Die Hard,’ when I was cast in the independent movie ‘Delirium.’ Director Lee Roy Kunz was looking everywhere for a Russian actress. He saw my photos, and only then he learned where I starred before! Eventually, I spent several months in the U.S., and we made the film quickly Picture Quote #1

In the life of any actor or actress, there is inevitably a time when they will be eligible to act in a Tom Stoppard play. He has written a lot, and they are revived often, and there are so many characters of different ages that it was more likely I’d end up in something of his than that I wouldn’t Picture Quote #1

There’s no such thing as too late. There are different roles for different ages, assuming an actress has something to offer. There aren’t many Helen Mirrens and Meryl Steeps, and it takes a lot of talent to get to that level. I hope I have it. That’s the model I aspire to if I’m lucky enough. It’s all about luck Picture Quote #1

I find it very difficult to be two different characters at the same time - actress and mother Picture Quote #1

I sometimes feel like I could do another job. Anything. Maybe because as an actress you’re playing different characters, everything feels possible Picture Quote #1

The road Cordelia has travelled, the journey she has taken up to now has been such a joy to play as an actress, because there have been so many chances to do so many different emotions Picture Quote #1

The acting part of me is not me. The music side is who I really am and what I want to talk about. It’ll be hard for people to differentiate those different sides but I think it’s possible. Once the music is out there, people will start to realize how serious I am about it rather than, ‘Oh God, another actress making an album.’ Picture Quote #1

In the beginning, I didn’t know if I was still a model, if I was an actress. I knew I wanted to be an actress, but it was so difficult to be believed Picture Quote #1

To be perfectly honest with you, having a mother as an actress - who I watched struggle tremendously during my childhood - and to watch fluctuations of ups and downs is difficult. She did mainly television, so I think I associated that with a life of inconsistency. As I’ve come into my own, I realize it has nothing to do with the medium Picture Quote #1

Ten years ago, it was really difficult for a young actress to walk onto a set and disagree with the director and having that be OK and have a conversation about it and everyone be cool with it Picture Quote #1

I feel being an actress is probably not half as difficult as being a mother, and I do not know when I will be ready for that kind of a decision Picture Quote #1

As an actress people always tease me like: if there’s anything you can do to make yourself unattractive you will do it Picture Quote #1
