Roles Quotes

After many of years of getting cast in sweet, angelic roles, I’m finally getting to play closer to my real life as a horrible person Picture Quote #1

I think feminism’s a bit misinterpreted. It was about casting off all gender roles. There’s nothing wrong with a man holding a door open for a girl. But we sort of threw away all the rules, so everybody’s confused. And dating becomes a sloppy, uncomfortable, unpleasant thing Picture Quote #1

When you inhabit any of these three roles, you’re reacting to fear of victimhood, loss of control, or loss of purpose. You’re always looking outside yourself, to the people and circumstances of life, for a sense of safety, security, and sanity Picture Quote #1

The biggest mistake was that I didn’t hire all the right people. I should have done better reference checks. I should have defined the roles in a much more professional manner. I hired people who just couldn’t do the job Picture Quote #1

I am not an angel and do not pretend to be. That is not one of my roles. But I am not a devil, either. I am a woman and a serious artist, and I would like so to be judged Picture Quote #1

Connect the dots between individual roles and the goals of the organization. When people see that connection, they get a lot of energy out of work. They feel the importance, dignity, and meaning in their job Picture Quote #1

If the roles were reversed, I would be saying the same thing. As a competitor, you’re tired of the same guy winning. I guess I understand where they’re coming from and what they’re saying... I don’t necessarily agree with it. I think it would be great for someone to win five straight Picture Quote #1

Just now one of the significant historical roles of the primal people of the world is not simply to sustain their own traditions, but call the entire civilized world back to a more authentic mode of being Picture Quote #1

Where constraint breaks people, and mediation makes fools of them, the seduction of power is what makes them love their oppression. Because of it, people give up their real riches for a cause that mutilates them; for an appearance that reifies them; for roles that wrest them from authentic life; for a time whose passage defines and confines them Picture Quote #1

We are rag dolls made out of many ages and skins, changelings who have slept in wood nests, and hissed in the uncouth guise of waddling amphibians. We have played such roles for infinitely longer ages than we have been human. Our identity is a dream. We are process, not reality Picture Quote #1

The essence of my work, and of me, is the softer side of a strong woman, and that goes into a number of different roles Picture Quote #1

I was lucky enough to have a plethora of types of roles before and during the horror movie part of my career Picture Quote #1

I have always felt it a great privilege to be in the theater, and I am grateful to all the playwrights who have given me so many wonderful roles. It’s a terrifying business, but it has its compensations. Where else could I have found someone who for 50 years has given me sheer enchantment? Picture Quote #1

Shamanic healing is a journey. It involves stepping out of our habitual roles, our conventional scripts, and improvising a dancing path Picture Quote #1

We overthrew the feudal system in the 1600s, and the theocracy in the 1700s. But currently, corporations play similar roles in many of our lives, either directly or indirectly Picture Quote #1

The splendors of earth do not simply lie in their roles as human resources, supports of culture, or stimulators of experience Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to be in a position where I’m playing roles I’m comfortable with and making money, but doing it without feeling like I’m growing Picture Quote #1

This is a very challenging moment for educators. Our children are headed for a much more networked existence, one that allows for learning to occur 24, 7, 365, one that renders physical space much less important for learning, one that will challenge the relevance of classrooms as currently envisioned, and one that challenges our roles as teachers and adult learners Picture Quote #1

I’m trying to get away from roles. I used to identify myself strictly in terms of my role, but when your roles fall away, part of you falls with them Picture Quote #1

As you get older, there are different types of roles in people’s lives at certain ages Picture Quote #1

I’m at the transition place myself, still playing high school girls but moving to a stage when I’m playing older roles and going to the places of stillness and wisdom and knowledge and weight. It’s exciting and scary Picture Quote #1

Nurses have new and expanding roles. They are case managers, helping patients navigate the maze of health care choices and develop plans of care. They are patient educators who focus on preventative care in a multitude of settings outside hospitals. And they are leaders, always identifying ways for their practice to improve. Because nurses have the most direct patient care, they have much influence on serious treatment decisions. It is a very high stakes job. Everyone wants the best nurse for the job, and that equates to the best educated nurse Picture Quote #1

The outcome of this culture of discrimination is that young people are routinely denied the roles in society they can, should, and need to be occupying Picture Quote #1

So writing became a way to get to act in things that I thought were meaningful, and hopefully write stronger roles for other women Picture Quote #1

Make your wardrobe as versatile as an actress. It should be able to play many roles Picture Quote #1

Being the person I am, you know, the size I am, being a woman, being a black woman, there’s not a lot of roles for us Picture Quote #1

Someday hopefully it won’t be necessary to allocate a special evening to celebrate where we are and how far we’ve come…someday women writers, producers and crew members will be so commonplace, and roles and salaries for actresses will outstrip those for men, and pigs will fly Picture Quote #1

I always look for roles that make me feel good about being a girl. I have to say that there are a lot of roles out there that make me feel really bad about being a girl. You can imagine what the things are and I shall not go into detail Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to look old and worn, but what can you do? My real focus is being an actor. I care more about having the opportunity to play roles that I haven’t played than I care if my neck looks like someone’s bedroom curtains Picture Quote #1

I’ve been told I’m too good looking for certain roles, but that’s okay. It just motivates me to go deeper Picture Quote #1
