More quotes by Halle Berry
I never even think about the physicality of roles, until honestly I get the gig and I think, 'OK, now what do I have to do in this one?' Like, I approach it thinking more about the character - do I respond to it? Is it something I think I can play? Does it seem like it'll be fun?

People win 'Oscars', and then it seems like they fall off the planet. And that's partly because a huge expectation walks in the room and sits right down on top of your head.
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
My mother always said to me, 'You're going to have to work harder and have to be better, and you can't take no for an answer'.

Halle Berry
When I think, where did I laugh the most, where did I eat the most, where did I just feel good all the time, I would say making the Bond movie 'Die Another Day.' To be part of such an iconic franchise and to travel to exotic places - that was the most fun I ever had.
Halle Berry
By the time I left school, I had a lot of tenacity.
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'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'm just going to live my life and be who I am.
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
The fact is that I like thrillers and action movies. But what really fulfills me is getting out of my comfort zone, taking chances.
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'm not the girl for superhigh fashion because I don't have the right body. When I want to get dressed up, I'm a Roberto Cavalli girl.
Halle Berry
Just to be true to myself, which is why I did this movie. I figured everyone was going to freak out and say, 'Why would you do that after Dorothy Dandridge?' My answer is 'Because I can.' And that feels really good to be comfortable saying that.
Halle Berry
My daughter doesn't want to go to school because she knows 'the men' are watching for her. They jump out of the bushes and from behind cars and who knows where else, besieging these children just to get a photo.
Halle Berry
