More quotes by Jamie Lee Curtis
I barely got out of high school and I look back at my life often and go, Wow, this was awesome!
Jamie Lee Curtis
And I was ashamed of myself for feeling like I had to do that in order to look a certain way. I felt misshapen, just not natural anymore. And I think it was a big stimulator of my drug use.

You can't live a truthful life without regret.
Jamie Lee Curtis
Fifty is a big corner to turn. It used to mean being put out to pasture, but it's the opposite with me. I feel more vibrant I'm more active than I've ever been. The F-word really is freedom. It's the freedom to have dropped the rock-the rock of addiction, of family, of comparisons with other people. It's being fit and focused and kind of furious.
Jamie Lee Curtis
I'm age-appropriate. I dress age-appropriately, I choose mates age-appropriately. I'm a big believer in people should act their age...
Jamie Lee Curtis
To make new friends you have be willing to put in the time.

I am appalled that the term we use to talk about aging is 'anti'. Aging is human evolution in its pure form. Death, taxes and aging .... We are ALL going to age and soften and mellow and transition.
Jamie Lee Curtis
We look at adoption as a very sacred exchange. It is not done lightly on either side. I would dedicate my life for this child.
Jamie Lee Curtis
The only two questions that need to be asked each day are: Did I live wisely? Did I love well?
Jamie Lee Curtis
I have a rule: Pretend you're going on a trip for two weeks, and pull what you'd wear on that two-week trip, and get rid of everything else.

For years I stopped reading beauty magazines because I couldn't look at one without wanting to blow my brains out. How can those women look so good?
