More quotes by Halle Berry
Being a black woman, I've often felt I've been judged by my sex and my race, and I have always known that it shouldn't hamper me.
Halle Berry
My whole life I've had the fear that I was going to be abandoned.
Halle Berry
Growing older is not such a big deal for me, despite the fears that older actresses have in Hollywood. When I hit 40, for example, I didn't feel 40 - or whatever that is supposed to feel like.
Halle Berry
I chose a sunflower because when darkness descends they close up to regenerate. But I really wish I'd never had the tattoo in the first place. Clean, clear skin is always better.
Halle Berry
I'll never get married again, and I always hate to say never to anything, but I will never marry again.
Halle Berry
I want to do roles that are fun and challenging and I want to try different things. I don't want to keep doing Monster's Ball over and over and over again. I want to keep doing my career the way that I was doing it before I won the Oscar.
Halle Berry
By the time I left school, I had a lot of tenacity.
Halle Berry
Most people I know of that mix have a real ability to be in a room with anyone, black or white.
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
Motherhood sort of puts things into perspective, and it's bout real life, and life is about people, what we give, what we take, what we share.
Halle Berry
Let me tell you something - being thought of as a beautiful woman has spared me nothing in life. No heartache, no trouble. Love has been difficult. Beauty is essentially meaningless and it is always transitory.
Halle Berry
Facials are my biggest beauty indulgence. Looking good is about having a good base. It's about taking care of your skin.
Halle Berry
I think I am at my best when my hair is short. It's easier to take care of and more of who I am. Women are conditioned to think we need long hair.
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 think my feet are my sexiest body part. People I find really sexy include Angelina Jolie, George Clooney and my mum.
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 wish all men were like dogs.
Halle Berry
I've become really comfortable with my sexuality and making no excuses for it anymore.
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
Actors always have to fight for the good parts. There are so few good roles written for women each year, and when one is written like this every actress in town covets the role.
Halle Berry
