More quotes by 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.
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 just feel passionately about the horses and I will until it's no longer a tradition in New York.
Kim Basinger
I love to see somebody who wants to be the best they can be.
Kim Basinger
I'm my own worst enemy sometimes when I pick projects.
Kim Basinger
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.
Kim Basinger
I just want to thank everybody I have ever met in my entire life.
Kim Basinger
As far as I'm concerned, I don't eat meat.
Kim Basinger
I think any girl who comes to Hollywood with sex symbol or bombshell hanging over her has a rough road.
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
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 love to be nervous before a scene.
Kim Basinger
I feel there are two people inside me - me and my intuition. If I go against her, she'll screw me every time, and if I follow her, we get along quite nicely.
Kim Basinger
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
I grew up on soul music. I was a dancing little creep.
Kim Basinger
I still eat sushi, though I'm trying my best to have my last sushi roll.
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
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
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
It can hit at any time [anxiety/panic attack]. You feel like you're in an open field, and there's a tornado coming at you. And you're just consumed by it.
Kim Basinger
