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
It's not that I'm retired, I just no longer accept acting work.
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.

With short hair you have to get a haircut every two or three weeks. And if you're coloring your hair, you have to color it that often. Every time I did it, I felt fraudulent.
