More quotes by 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
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
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
I've been happily married to Chris for almost 20 years.
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
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
I actually think there's an incredible amount of self-knowledge that comes with getting older.
Jamie Lee Curtis
We are all born worthy. Worthy of love, worthy of success.
Jamie Lee Curtis

Jamie Lee Curtis
My favorite time of the holidays is when the children have torn open their loot and delivered their verdicts and are looking to you for something else ... memories that have nothing to do with things bought.
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
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?
Jamie Lee Curtis
Getting sober was the single bravest thing I've ever done and will ever do in my life.
Jamie Lee Curtis
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.
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
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
I'm a disciplinarian. I'm the tough love pet owner. I believe in very well-behaved animals.
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
Modern women are just bombarded. There's nothing but media telling us we're all supposed to be great cooks, have great style, be great in bed, be the best mothers, speak seven languages, and be able to understand derivatives. And we don't really have women we're modeling after, so we're all looking for how to do this.
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.
