I have to live for me. I have to do what I need to do for me, and I have stopped concerning myself with what people say.

More quotes by Halle Berry

Image
I've become really comfortable with my sexuality and making no excuses for it anymore.
Halle Berry
Image
I've pretty much learned I can let that [being black] hinder me if I want to ... or I can fight for different kinds of roles.
Halle Berry
Image
I am a hopeless romantic. And I won't stop till I get it right.
Halle Berry
Image
I realize as you age the less makeup you wear the younger you look.
Halle Berry
Image
I'm not a fanatic about exercising. For me, it's about moderation and balance.
Halle Berry
Image
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
Image
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
Image
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
Image
This moment is so much bigger than me. It's for every nameless, faceless woman of colour that now has a chance because this door tonight has been opened.
Halle Berry
Image
I love a character that gives me a chance to grow and do something different.
Halle Berry
Image
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
Image
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
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I carried my Oscar to bed with me. My first and only three-way happened that night.
Halle Berry
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Facials are my biggest beauty indulgence. Looking good is about having a good base. It's about taking care of your skin.
Halle Berry
Image
I don't know why, but I respond well to tortured characters.
Halle Berry
Image
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.
