More quotes by June Diane Raphael
[The Women's Room] was the first thing I read that explained a lot of the feelings I was having and a lot of the rage and the feeling uncomfortable in my body and knowing that I was feeling a certain way in the world, but I didn't have the language for it.

It's very hard, I think especially for women, to not take it in and to not be super conscious of the way that you're being seen, which is of course completely antithetical to the work you want to do, which is completely free and bold and truthful and honest and brave.
June Diane Raphael
I read [The Women's Room] in my 20s, and I was like, I understand this now. And now I've become a mom and read it again and truly understand on a different level what one of the main characters goes through as a mother.

I'm not necessarily [into] pricey products, and I'm not recommending super-fancy stuff. It's more the consistency and the sunblock of it all, engaging in that process - I can be a little snobby about it.

That's the only thing I feel like, No, no, no, no - I know the way. I know the way. I know where you are and you need to come with me, and we need to take care of our skin.

[The Women's Room by Marilyn French] was in my house somewhere, blew my mind, I was changed forever. And then I continued to read it at various points in my life, and it sort of opens up in a different way.

I'll keep this as nonpartisan and diplomatic as possible - but for those of us whose heads are kind of spinning off and are really engaged in what's happening right now and trying to effect change where we can, when we can, I think we also need to express ourselves and express our anger and also find joy in things like The Golden Girls right now.
June Diane Raphael
I'm more focused or try to be more focused on my acting and writing and comedy and let the other stuff fall where it may.
June Diane Raphael
I'm not a dermatologist, but I had someone explain it to me, and I've seen the effect on my own skin over the years. So I feel like we need to protect our faces, especially those of us who live in Southern California, from this goddamn sun that's on us all day.
June Diane Raphael
I'm like, You could not wake up in the sixes? Does it really gotta be in the fives? Because the 5 really feels like nighttime. I don't like the day starting at 5.
June Diane Raphael
I love being a mom. Being a mother is my favorite thing ever.
June Diane Raphael
I've referred to [Marcus Lemonis] as my celebrity crush. I'm totally describing my celebrity crush, and that was not the question. But I am a fan of his. I really am.
June Diane Raphael
One thing that I would like to do that I've seen them not do that well is take women all through the process of the postpartum period in a more meaningful way. That would be my agenda.

I'm afraid of death, obviously.

My perfect Sunday is waking up at 10 - which, you know, those days are over for me - but waking up at 10, breakfast with children, hanging out with well-behaved children.
June Diane Raphael
Anyone who knows my professional history has known I've gone through a gazillion managers and agents or whatever. I'm like, This doesn't feel right - moving on. I don't really suffer fools, which makes it easier for me.
June Diane Raphael
I got so into moisturizing, my skin started overproducing oil. That's my story. There's a lot to talk about, for sure.
June Diane Raphael
I do a lot of coaching with my friends on how to get out of relationships with their agents, boyfriends, contractors, whatever, because that's easy for me.
June Diane Raphael
[I think] everybody should see a dermatologist.
