More quotes by Michelle Pfeiffer
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
I've never met a person who has more integrity than my husband. I respect that. There's his humor and intelligence, too, and he's really cute, all those things - but if you don't respect your partner, you'll get sick of him.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I even had breasts that had mechanisms that could make them droop. It was a shock in the beginning. Talk about special effects!
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
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
I'm good at disguising my feelings.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I'm a perfectionist, so I can drive myself mad - and other people, too. At the same time, I think that's one of the reasons I'm successful. Because I really care about what I do.
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 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
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
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.
Michelle Pfeiffer
You can have it all, but you can't do it all.
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
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
Just standing around looking beautiful is so boring.
Michelle Pfeiffer
When I wasn't working I didn't know what to do with myself and sort of didn't exist, in a way, when I wasn't working, so I was like two different people. I am not like that anymore.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I am basically very private, and I'm really nervous about doing publicity.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Men do not take to vanity, because they are taught at an early age that it is wrong to be vain.
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
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.
