More quotes by Kim Basinger
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
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.
Kim Basinger
Parents can be very influential in designing those little creepy-crawlers that jump around in your mind for the rest of your life. It's the fear of not being good enough.
Kim Basinger
I grew up on soul music. I was a dancing little creep.
Kim Basinger
You never stop the measuring process because these are oceans that are so deep that they have no bottom, and it takes a long time to know that. It only goes to a higher place after you've gone to the depths where you think there's a bottom - and when you find out that there is no bottom, it just rises up into this plume of euphoria.
Kim Basinger
As far as I'm concerned, I don't eat meat.
Kim Basinger
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
I'm a very determined person.
Kim Basinger
My dad worked very hard for the money he made, and my mom worked very hard to keep this household up and running and all the kids fed and everything. And she did it in a brilliant fashion. They both did. In fact, the work ethic, to me, is so important in this life.
Kim Basinger
When it comes to exchanges with people, I think, the more genuine you can be, the more giving you can be, the more you will, in the end, feel fulfilled.
Kim Basinger
I look at marriage and I think marriage is phenomenal. I think it's great. I don't hold anything against marriage.
Kim Basinger
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.
Kim Basinger
I'm very sensitive to energy and people and life and animals and a lot of things.
Kim Basinger
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.
Kim Basinger
I don't have time to be classified as difficult, and I don't have time to care.
Kim Basinger
There's no doubt that becoming a mother was the greatest thing I'll ever do
Kim Basinger
I'm very thankful that I've had such longevity and variety.
Kim Basinger
With some people, that love of music is just buried in them. It's so deep in them that they would play for free because they have to.
Kim Basinger
Watching myself still makes me uneasy - and when you're younger, you're even more unforgiving.
Kim Basinger
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.
