You can have it all, but you can't do it all.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
I still think people will find out that I’m really not very talented. I’m really not very good. It’s all been a big sham.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
I was considered the black sheep of the family, neighbours didn't want their kids playing with me.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
Just when you think you've got your kids figured out, they change on you. For somebody who's controlling, you can't control it. Of course, I don't think I'm controlling, but that's what I've been told!
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
I never wanted to have to take a job because I didn't have any money.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
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.

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.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
I like being prepared. When things are going on and I have to learn my lines at the last minute, I'm never quite secure enough to allow it to be spontaneous. So the more prepared I am, the more I'm able to kind of let it go . . .

What's interesting is, there's always a lot of talk to young people about finding their passion, following their passion. But I remember reading somewhere that a lot of people don't have a passion. And there's this pressure to have one. It's perfectly fine not to have one.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
I feel less pressure to dress youthfully. I'm 50 and everyone knows I'm 50 - who are you kidding? Jeans are my uniform. I have about 15 pairs.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
I am basically very private, and I'm really nervous about doing publicity.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
I guess I sort of just feel like I am lucky.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
I do sometimes feel like the paparazzi are really what ran me out of L.A. They're just giving everyone a bad name.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
You know, when I am working, I take really, really good care of myself. I eat really well, and I exercise, and again, I have this team of people pulling me together every day.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
Most people in the world have seen more of me on-screen than my kids have.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
Being a parent is the hardest thing in the world... the psychological toll it takes on you because these lives are in your hands. I take it very seriously.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
I have days when I just feel I look like a dog.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Image
For me, getting comfortable with being famous was hard - that whole side of it, the loss of anonymity, the loss of privacy. Giving up that part of your life and not having control of it.
Michelle Pfeiffer

When I first started out, I said to myself, if this doesn't happen there will be something else that I can do. That seemed possible because I knew how to do so many different kinds of jobs.
