Quote

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.

More quotes by Halle Berry

Image
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
Image
My mother never wanted me to focus on my physical self. She always said that beauty is what you do.
Halle Berry
Image
I am so ready to be a mommy. I can't wait. I notice every little baby dress, every little baby toy, every little baby thing.
Halle Berry
Image
Nature has got it all wrong: When you are younger, it should be harder to get pregnant, and as you get older it should be easier.
Halle Berry
Image
I'm not sad at all about turning 40.
Halle Berry
Image
I no longer scramble blindly through hardship. I no longer emerge from a bad time feeling relieved just to have survived. Instead of despairing, I try to find the lesson within the experience.
Halle Berry
Image
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.

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
Image
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
Image
I'm just going to live my life and be who I am.
Halle Berry
Image
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
Image
I'll never get married again, and I always hate to say never to anything, but I will never marry again.
Halle Berry
Image
As a woman, when you embrace where you are in life, then I think the struggle [life] isn't so hard. If you're 42 and still think you're an ingenue, then you've got a problem.
Halle Berry
Image
When I got to be about 16,17 I got into a beauty pageant and I was allowed to start playing around with makeup.
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.
Halle Berry
Image
I know that I will never find my father in any other man who comes into my life, because it is a void in my life that can only be filled by him.
Halle Berry
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I love a character that gives me a chance to grow and do something different.
Halle Berry
Image
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.
