More quotes by Michelle Pfeiffer
If you think hitting 40 is liberating, wait until you hit 50 and I was surprised at how liberating it was. The anticipation of something is always much worse than the reality.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I don't really know what Hollywood is. I've never really known.
Michelle Pfeiffer
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.
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.

I think all actors have a sadomasochistic streak, because acting is kind of brutal, you know.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I'm a Taurus. To the bone.
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

Michelle Pfeiffer
Acting is kind of brutal.
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
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.
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
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
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'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
Ultimately, I believe the only secret to a happy marriage is choosing the right person. Life is a series of choices, right?
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.
Michelle Pfeiffer
I guess I sort of just feel like I am lucky.
