More quotes by Michelle Pfeiffer
I never wanted to have to take a job because I didn't have any money.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I act for free, but I demand a huge salary as compensation for all the annoyance of being a public personality. In that sense, I earn every dime I make.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I do portraits. I usually do live models in a class environment, but I've been painting at home more. I really love the human form, and I love faces. I've tried to do landscapes a few times.

Acting's an odd profession for a young person it's so extreme. You work, and the conditions are tough and the process is so immersive, and then it stops, and then there's nothing. So you have to find ways of making you feel productive when you're not actually producing anything. For a young person, that's really challenging.

Honestly, depending on what stage I'm at in my life, my opinion on plastic surgery changes. I've never been against plastic surgery - I'm against bad plastic surgery. I'm against the overuse of plastic surgery.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I worked so hard for so long - I did a lot of movies. I also worked a lot when my kids were smaller, before they were in school.
Michelle Pfeiffer
There is no question that the older you get, the fewer good roles there are.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Women are brought up to think it's acceptable to pay attention to their faces. Men translate their discomfort into their behavior.
Michelle Pfeiffer
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.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Being from Orange County is in a lot ways very much like being from the Midwest.
Michelle Pfeiffer
If I do a move I don't like, I don't want to get so upset with myself.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I am basically very private, and I'm really nervous about doing publicity.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I guess I do a really good job at covering.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I've been painting off and on since I was in sixth grade. I don't paint when I'm acting - I'm not really able to split my focus that way. I do it intensely when I'm doing it, but I'm reluctant to take myself too seriously as a painter because that would mean there would be pressure to be better than I am.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I think all actors have a sadomasochistic streak, because acting is kind of brutal, you know.
