More quotes by Debra Winger
I started out in stand-up when I was 18, which is really masochistic, and I did it really till I started going in movies. I did it for about three years out in LA.
Debra Winger
I make decisions for my life, not the other way around. Besides, when you have a kid, you must weigh everything against time with your child.
Debra Winger
An actress in a film starts every day with an hour and a half in front of a mirror, with hair and make-up and costumes.
Debra Winger
I remember the old joke, while women are deciding which schools the kids go to, where you're going to live, how the money's going to be spent, and where your health care is coming from, the men are out standing around the barbecue solving all the big world problems. So I think this is a well known fact and we're not breaking any new ground here.
Debra Winger
It's fun to be loose. Just like on stage, all of your great ideas come from looseness.
Debra Winger
A good marriage is different to a happy marriage.
Debra Winger
I don't believe in careers. I believe in work. I'm not interested in some 'big picture that would be really good for me'.
Debra Winger
I tend to wear outfits that match the walls.
Debra Winger
I do not need a lot of money to be happy.
Debra Winger
It's not necessarily that having an affair you get something from the other person that you're not getting from your partner, it's that you created a situation for yourself in which you're unexpressed and so maybe you feel another person allows you to express yourself.
Debra Winger
I hope to find the roles that are age appropriate but not yearning to be younger, or parenting ad nauseam.
Debra Winger
It's such an amazing thing to be loved for who you are.
Debra Winger
I guess what I have to say is, Don't do it. I don't recommend it, because, having said that, the people that should do it will do it anyway, despite the fact that I've said not to do it. Only the ones who've said, Oh, she said not to do it, aren't going to do it, and they shouldn't be doing it in the first place.
Debra Winger
I think that we definitely deal with that issue and don't ignore it, the issue of drink, but that's not where it ends. I just think that what the fear is that you think alcoholic writer or whatever and you forget the intelligence that can be present. I mean so many people just write off someone who drinks as one thing.
Debra Winger
I think when it comes to Botox and surgery, actresses should do it or not do it, but be honest about their choices.
Debra Winger
People who make lots of money at what they do should just shut up about it.
Debra Winger
I had a very insightful friend who warned me back when I stopped reading scripts, 'It's easier to change directions while you're still moving.' If you stop, it's harder to get started again. I still don't think I made the wrong decision, but he was right.
Debra Winger
I have enjoyed a wonderful run in films, so far, and I may, at some point, come back. But it will be in my own time and in my own style.
Debra Winger
Once a Altman's film has been in a town, it kind of wrecks the town. It doesn't even matter what the film is because, suddenly, everybody's hip and stores start doubling prices or whatever.
Debra Winger
Just because we're on schedule is no reason to shoot bad acting. Someone once said to me, 'You're inconsiderate.' And I said, 'Inconsiderate? Bad acting is the ultimate inconsideration.' It's a collective slap to a million faces at the same time.
