I just want to thank everybody I have ever met in my entire life.

I've been so blessed because I've had such longevity. I'm not a big red carpet girl. But I love the work. In this business, you can be at the top of the world and at the bottom of the barrel, and you're grape juice. I've been at both ends. It can make you become what you really are.

My dad studied at the American Conservatory in Chicago, so he lived on all those streets. He said the war probably saved his life because he'd have ended up a dead musician, with all the crazy stuff they did on Rush Street back in the day.

Once you become a mother, your heart is no longer yours...My daughter is the greatest thing I'll ever do in my life.

I've played a mother many times, even in tragic things like, I Dreamed of Africa, so I know how it is to lose a child cinematically. I have so much compassion on so many fronts, for women who have lost children or tried for years and couldn't have them.

I'm all for anybody having a party who wants that. The funny thing about me and birthdays or any kind of celebration where it brings attention to you in that way is that it's never been anything that I've thoroughly enjoyed - even as a little kid.
Kim Basinger
Image
I just thank god that I didn't grow up with so much money or privilege because you had to create ways to make it happen.
Kim Basinger
Image
Watching myself still makes me uneasy - and when you're younger, you're even more unforgiving.
Kim Basinger
Image
As a child, I was very shy. Painfully, excruciatingly shy. I hid a lot in my room. I was so terrified to read out loud in school that I had to have my mother ask my reading teacher not to call on me in class.

Image
Children need to grow up and make their own decisions - how they want to pierce their bodies or do whatever they need to.
Kim Basinger
Image
I'm a very determined person.
Kim Basinger
Image
If you look at this generation of selfies and selfies and selfies, it seems a little bit scary. I like to see a driven kid, somebody who wants to come from the ground up.
Kim Basinger
Image
I think my mother had a lot of opportunity when she was a kid. She was a model, and she did a lot of things in her life, but she had no real ambition. I think my mother really did want a home and kids and all of that.

I'm my own worst enemy sometimes when I pick projects.

As far as I'm concerned, I don't eat meat.

I love to be nervous before a scene.
