I liked getting up at 4 in the morning, driving on the freeway, and going in and stocking shelves and laughing with the stock clerks.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
And I'm a really happy person, I enjoy life. I think you see that on people. I think there's nothing more aging than misery.

Image
Actually, I think that turning 29 was more difficult, because once I turned 29, I anticipated 30 for the whole year, so by the time 30 came around it really wasn't that bad.

I don't really know what Hollywood is. I've never really known.

When you're young and have a dream, it's pretty simplistic. You don't think about or have any way of knowing everything it can be, and anticipate that.

I do sometimes feel like the paparazzi are really what ran me out of L.A. They're just giving everyone a bad name.

Where I came from, the idea of going into show business was just ridiculous in fact I didn't tell anybody because I knew people would laugh at me. So I sort of snuck around and got some pictures and got a resume together and, of course, lied and said I did all kinds of things I didn't do.

I think all actors have a sadomasochistic streak, because acting is kind of brutal, you know.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
One thing that's great about having kids, especially given my career, is that it forces you out of your narcissism. I mean, I'm in a career where my product is me. So it was nice to have something, someone, come along and take the focus off me. I really needed to give myself some distractions from myself.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
It takes years for me to trust I know that about myself. A lot of it is because I am so private, and so reluctant to make myself vulnerable.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
I even had breasts that had mechanisms that could make them droop. It was a shock in the beginning. Talk about special effects!

I have days when I just feel I look like a dog.

If you're working on something that isn't very demanding, isn't very fulfilling, then you have all this energy to burn, and you can go crazy.
