More quotes by Halle Berry
I'm done with men... I'm going to be alone. I have no luck with relationships. I don't think I'm made for marriage.
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
I believe that you can experience very profound moments of change in life...I never would have become an actress if I hadn't dropped out of high school. As a teenager, I was so driven to pursue my dreams that I made a decision to quit school at 17 so I could find my voice as an actress and eventually the profession embraced me.
Halle Berry
It is very hard to separate one's self from a character. Sometimes the people closest to me have to be very understanding.
Halle Berry
But I just don't think it's an abyss of nothingness [after death] and that we fall off and that our journey stops. I think it's circular and we go and we go and we go. I know that there are civilizations that I think are way more sophisticated than we are and I think more sophisticated civilizations lived before us.
Halle Berry
Anytime you put a movie out it's subject to such scrutiny and such criticism.
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
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
I think I've evolved into someone pretty confident - in myself and in my skin.
Halle Berry
The day I saw my mom eating the Santa cookies on the plate was one of the most horrific days of my life.
Halle Berry
During really difficult times in my life when I start questioning why I am struggling with something, I often turn to books to understand myself better.
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
My whole life I've had the fear that I was going to be abandoned.
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'm not sad at all about turning 40.
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 don't think I'm unlike a lot of people. I am just someone who is trying to find that mate, and I think it's a really hard thing to do.
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
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 also have been called that terrible N word straight to my face and not known what to do about it because it was just in like 1993 that someone called me that.
Halle Berry
