More quotes by Michelle Pfeiffer
Most people in the world have seen more of me on-screen than my kids have.
Michelle Pfeiffer
There's always an imbalance with actors and actresses in the industry. And I think because there are just fewer movies overall being made, it's that trickle down effect.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I went to court-reporting school to study stenotyping. After awhile, whenever anybody spoke, in my mind my fingers would be punching it out. Even two years after I quit, my mind still did that.
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.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Acting is kind of brutal.
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
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
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 . . .
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
When I go to work and when I'm in the public eye, I take much better care of myself. Because when I'm not working, I do indulge more.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I used to smoke two packs a day and I just hate being a nonsmoker.... but I will never consider myself a nonsmoker because I always find smokers the most interesting people at the table.
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.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I never wanted to have to take a job because I didn't have any money.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I was considered the black sheep of the family, neighbours didn't want their kids playing with me.
Michelle Pfeiffer
You can have it all, but you can't do it all.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I don't really know what Hollywood is. I've never really known.
Michelle Pfeiffer
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
It's harder to live the way I live. There are certain places I like to shop and eat where I simply don't go. The paparazzi follow you.
Michelle Pfeiffer
There have been people in my life who have told me I have to put myself out there more. But it's so hard for me to do that.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I've been working since I was 14, and my father, being very conservative, has always been strict about my having a savings account.
