More quotes by Jamie Lee Curtis
I'm a performer. I've just been one since I was a little girl. I used to pretend all the time.
Jamie Lee Curtis
My husband once said he'd never met anybody who walked so fast and ran so slowly. As I said, it's a little hard for me to try new things, and this was me facing a fear that I'd had my whole life. Since I had no experience running, I felt like a failure before I'd even begun.
Jamie Lee Curtis
I'm one of those people who does a lot of things. I'm lucky. I get up and I have a lot of energy. I have a great work ethic.
Jamie Lee Curtis
I have to be careful to get out before I become the grotesque caricature of a hatchet-faced woman with big knockers.
Jamie Lee Curtis
My mother was the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. There are moments when I remember her beauty, unadorned, unposed, not in some artificial place like a set or a photo call but rather captured outdoors in nature, where she took my breath away. When those moments surface, I miss her the most.
Jamie Lee Curtis
Getting sober just exploded my life. Now I have a much clearer sense of myself and what I can and can't do. I am more successful than I have ever been. I feel very positive where I never did before, and I think that's all a direct result of getting sober.
Jamie Lee Curtis
I believe that life is hard. That we all are going to walk through things that are hard and challenging, and yet advertising wants us to believe that it's all easy.
Jamie Lee Curtis
I don't ever want to make taking pictures into another way of saying 'Here I am'. Because I'm as here as I want to be.
Jamie Lee Curtis
By the way, food and rent aren't the only things around here that cost money. You sleep on the couch.
Jamie Lee Curtis
Being a parent is a weird juggling act - and nobody does it right. Everybody does it wrong.
Jamie Lee Curtis
All the work built my fame and certainly made me more money, but the toll it took in my home was not good.
Jamie Lee Curtis
I think I felt that I was very well known for my figure and needed to keep that up for my work. And I regret all of it. I felt fraudulent and very shameful.
Jamie Lee Curtis
You'll never see me in the front row of a fashion show. I'm uninterested in it I find it trivial and banal and boring.
Jamie Lee Curtis
Hollywood is the backdrop of my family, and I know that the movie business is incredibly cruel as you get older.
Jamie Lee Curtis
I'm a layperson. I barely got out of high school. I have no business telling people what to do or my big philosophy on life. I'm certainly not going to write any sort of memoir.
Jamie Lee Curtis
The media nowadays has given the message to adults. Don't try new things, don't look foolish because we will catch you and then broadcast it to the world. I think children don't have that.
Jamie Lee Curtis
I'm not a prophet. I'm not a teacher. I have no degrees. My degree is from the University of Life.
Jamie Lee Curtis
My husband and I are very different. Our company is called Syzygy Industries, which can mean a pair of opposites. And that's exactly what we are. Yet there is obviously a very strong pull toward each other.
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.
Jamie Lee Curtis
The system is only as good as the person programming it. If you don't have the follow-through, your system is useless. And by the way, it's that way in parenting it's that way in marriages.
