More quotes by Karen Black
There were all these rumors about me... so I went indoors. No one saw me for years. And since I wasnt around, people believed what they wanted.
Karen Black
I was doing bad movies as a day job. And it almost ruined my life for a while. But I have done 130-odd films, and only fourteen have been spooky ones. Im not spooky! I want life!
Karen Black
I have kept working, even if Ive thrown off the big movies I used to do. I still have three or four wonderful little movies coming out.
Karen Black
Illiteracy is rampant. People are out of communication.
Karen Black
I love playing strong women, even if theyre nuts.
Karen Black
If you didn't know that I am an actress, I don't think you could tell from my lifestyle. I cook and cook and cook. I like to be with my daughter. She's 16, so of course I bore her.
Karen Black
There is no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow
Karen Black
As a teenager I studied opera, believe it or not. But I just couldn't catch on to it.
Karen Black
If I turn on the television, am I to believe that that is America? I'm sorry, I don't believe that's America.
Karen Black
I like to watch people. For example, people at the airport... What is interesting about them is that they dont know what they are like. People at airports are the most brilliant actors in the world, because their attention is elsewhere, and they are idiosyncratic. I like to imitate people. I walk behind them and imitate their backs.
