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.

More quotes by Jamie Lee Curtis
Recovery is an acceptance that your life is in shambles and you have to change it.
Jamie Lee Curtis
I've been going through photos of my mother, looking back on her life and trying to put it into context. Very few people age gracefully enough to be photographed through their aging.
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.
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
So, am I friendly with my daughter and her friends? Yes. Am I their friend? No. Does she shut the door? Yes, and I very much support the shut door.

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.

My life is so filled with my children, my family, and the charitable work I do.
Jamie Lee Curtis

Jamie Lee Curtis
You can't live a truthful life without regret.
Jamie Lee Curtis
My marriage? Up to now everything's okay. But it's a real marriage - imperfect and very difficult. It's all about people evolving somewhat simultaneously through their lives. I think we've emotionally evolved.
Jamie Lee Curtis
It's not that I'm retired, I just no longer accept acting work.
Jamie Lee Curtis
The more I like me, the less I want to pretend to be other people.
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'm a performer. I've just been one since I was a little girl. I used to pretend all the time.
Jamie Lee Curtis
I work with The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University. I sit proudly as one of only two recovering addicts on their board.
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
If I'm honest I don't think the world would miss me if I never acted again.
Jamie Lee Curtis
I recommend it to all people: Get down on the floor and look at the world from where the child looks at it.
Jamie Lee Curtis
We are all born worthy. Worthy of love, worthy of success.
