More quotes by Christina Ricci
I feel like some of the best talent is on TV right now, with the writing, acting and great directors.
Christina Ricci
I think I've had a fairly meandering career. Because I did start so young, I think that I've always chosen my parts based on what's interesting to me and what I think would be challenging or fun, or someone I've always wanted to work with or a place I've always wanted to work in or a topic.
Christina Ricci
It's Aslan, the lion from The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe. It's a symbol of my hellish childhood. I struggled through my oppressive teenage years and when I turned 18 I escaped. Like Aslan I was finally free.
Christina Ricci
I think that we need to look at ourselves and look at the way women perpetuate misogyny. Because at a certain point you can't blame other people for things in your life. I've felt that most of the misogyny I've witnessed in my life - a lot of it, yes, it comes from men, but most of it professionally has come from other women.
Christina Ricci
I certainly hope I'm not still answering child-star questions by the time I reach menopause.
Christina Ricci
If I know I have everything prepared for when I get killed by a stalker, then I can go to sleep.
Christina Ricci
The movies I made early on may not have been great, but they were all commercially successful.
Christina Ricci
Our society doesn't want to help girls like that [in Black Snake Moan]. They just want to use them.
Christina Ricci
I feel like some of the best talent is on TV right now, with the writing, acting and great directors. I've also been looking for the consistency of work that TV provides for you. And, I always thought it would be really interesting to live with a character for months, if not years.
Christina Ricci
You have to excuse me because I AM a teenager, so I'm allowed to sound illiterate and make stupid comments like 'I'm not into hard-core feminism.'
Christina Ricci
I think reincarnation is possible. Hopefully, we all get recycled.
Christina Ricci
That worries me an awful lot. If people misunderstand our intentions [in Black Snake Moan], especially regarding my character, then they're essentially exploiting an already exploited and abused woman. So it's a huge concern for me.
Christina Ricci
There are a lot of theories about Shakespeare.
Christina Ricci
My roommate and my boyfriend, they both know I am compulsive and controlling.
Christina Ricci
Any obsession is dangerous.
Christina Ricci
Naturally, my body language changes given whatever environment I'm in.
Christina Ricci
If I hadn't gone into acting, I would have been one of those weird runaways on Hollywood Boulevard. No, it'd be uglier. I'd probably be dead.
Christina Ricci
I hate the things they preach. They found a gimmick that sells. The fact that they're making money off all these teenage kids who actually believe in their message is disgusting.
Christina Ricci
I've been to therapists my whole life. I find the less attention I pay to food, the healthier I am. Any obsession is dangerous. And a whole country that's obsessed with one thing, unless it's, like, jeans, it's very dangerous. Everyone's obsessed right now with carbohydrates in this country. It's ridiculous.
Christina Ricci
When I'm acting in a film that I'm not producing, I stay to myself.
Christina Ricci
