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
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
The older you get, the more you've done.
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
The minute we have a pain, we want a diagnosis. So I think the minute we feel love, it's very hard to just let it be. We want to identify it, we want to catalog it, we want to keep the thing and create the environment it happened in. That's where marriage comes from! Let's make an institution out of it!
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
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
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
I hope to find the roles that are age appropriate but not yearning to be younger, or parenting ad nauseam.
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
It's inconceivable to some people that that wouldn't be the sexiest thing to do in the whole world: to be a movie star, and make money, and be pampered, and whatever.
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
I just live in the truth and think that every moment counts.
Debra Winger
Actors always want you to believe something else even though that's the truth and to do that well it's almost a dying art.
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
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.
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
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 used to love going on a junket and promoting a film when it was not a 24-hour news cycle, and when there weren't so many media outlets. You could actually talk about the film.
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.
