I've been acting all along. I understand that I haven't been in people's viewers, but acting has never not been a part of my life, just more time in between and less high-profile.

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 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
The older you get, the more you've done.
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
People who make lots of money at what they do should just shut up about it.
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
I tend to wear outfits that match the walls.
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 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 became an actor because I couldn't not.
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 will walk out on a scene if it's all lit and ready to go but it's not happening.
Debra Winger
People pay to see movies with women looking beautiful, but I think there will be a place for me to play women looking my own age.
Debra Winger
Never say never, but the thought of electively cutting oneself is beyond my grasp, and I also object to it politically. Denying the lines on our faces makes a comment about age and wisdom I don't care to make.
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.
Debra Winger
It's fun to be loose. Just like on stage, all of your great ideas come from looseness.
Debra Winger
Granted there are only seven stories in the universe. And I agree with that. But give me a great variation of those stories. And literate.
Debra Winger
It's no secret that I didn't love 'An Officer And A Gentleman' then, and I certainly don't love it now, so at least no one could accuse me of being inconsistent.
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.
