Here's the thing - you can't be careful about what you pick because what looks like on paper is going to be a great script has often turned out to be a disaster, so there's no way to know what's going to work or to pick the right thing.

Anytime you put a movie out it's subject to such scrutiny and such criticism.
Halle Berry
Image
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
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.

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
Image
By the time I left school, I had a lot of tenacity.
Halle Berry
Image
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
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 think I've evolved into someone pretty confident - in myself and in my skin.
Halle Berry
Image
There have been so many people who have said to me, 'You can't do that,' but I've had an innate belief that they were wrong. Be unwavering and relentless in your approach.
Halle Berry
Image
You have to get the audience invested even if you're doing something that they think is dumb, it's kind of what these movies are all about.
Halle Berry
Image
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
Image
I am a hopeless romantic. And I won't stop till I get it right.
Halle Berry
Image
I'm not a fanatic about exercising. For me, it's about moderation and balance.
Halle Berry
Image
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.
Halle Berry
Image
I realize as you age the less makeup you wear the younger you look.
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
I never wanted to be a model. My modelling career was nothing but a stepping stone to my acting career and that's all I ever saw it as. A pointless rock in the river that has to be stepped on in order to get to the meaningful oasis of acting.
Halle Berry
Image
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
Image
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.
