More quotes by Halle Berry
By the time I left school, I had a lot of tenacity.
Halle Berry
Being a mother is probably the most important thing in my life right now.
Halle Berry
I am a hopeless romantic. And I won't stop till I get it right.
Halle Berry
While being called beautiful is extremely flattering, I would much rather be noticed for my work as an actress.
Halle Berry
I think a smart person today realizes that you have to be part of the art films that are done just for the sake of the art.
Halle Berry
Career is important, but nothing really supersedes my roles as a mother.
Halle Berry
It's an amazing feeling to know that life is actually growing inside your body. The first time you see the ultrasound and you see the little bones and you realise that it's part of you and it's in your care is life changing and this sort of protective instinct has taken over.
Halle Berry
I don't buy into that pressure to be glamorous all the time. It's impossible, I mean, you get a pimple in the morning, you wake up with bags under your eyes, you see if you can use it in your work, maybe incorporate it into your character.
Halle Berry
I love a character that gives me a chance to grow and do something different.
Halle Berry
I archive a lot of my clothes and have them wrapped up and in boxes. I call them 'little tombs' and keep them in a storage space... I would never get rid of the dress I wore on the night I won my Oscar. When I die, someone can have it, but not a minute before!
Halle Berry
I've learned my tricks. I know what I like. I do not wait around. I initiate. And I'm not all about frequency - I favor intensity.
Halle Berry
I take care of myself, because I learned early on that I am the only person in life who's responsible for me.
Halle Berry
I've also grown as an actor as I've got older in life. I've learnt how to go to work, immerse myself 100 per cent in the character and, at the end of the day, take it all off and go back, get a nice bubble bath, have a nice massage and realise that is not my life. And that feels good.
Halle Berry
If you set out to do something and you give it your all and it doesn't work out, be willing to modify your goal slightly. Have the ability to look in another direction. A small shift could guide you to the real purposes of your life.
Halle Berry
My mother helped me identify myself the way the world would identify me. Bloodlines didn't matter as much as how I would be perceived.
Halle Berry
I would say a magical thing happened on when the big 40th birthday came. I felt like a light kind of just went off, and maybe that's because I felt like at 40 I had the right to say and be who I wanted to be, say what I wanted to say, and accept what I didn't want to accept.
Halle Berry
Here's the thing - you can't be careful about what you pick because what looks like on paper is going to be a great script has often turned out to be a disaster, so there's no way to know what's going to work or to pick the right thing.
Halle Berry
My mother never wanted me to focus on my physical self. She always said that beauty is what you do.
Halle Berry
I knew that I was a good writer in high school and won awards, and I was the editor of my school newspaper. So I knew that I was a good writer and I wanted to somehow capitalize and sort of utilize a talent that I thought I had.
Halle Berry
I think I've evolved into someone pretty confident - in myself and in my skin.
Halle Berry
