More quotes by Pam Grier
Coming from the '50s, things were very violent.
Pam Grier
At the beginning, my ambition was never to break down doors. It was just to earn tuition for myself and work in an industry where women hadn't been allowed or invited.

If you're stupid and you're arrogant, you're going to get hurt.
Pam Grier
As I get older, it's a time to enjoy life.

Pam Grier
Sometimes I'm a little Republican, sometimes I'm a little Democrat.
Pam Grier
I wanted to be in film. I wanted to be a film student, possibly be a director or cinematographer, not an actor. That was my goal. I didn't believe I had the physical beauty that I'd seen projected and advertised in movies, in theater. It just wasn't for me.
Pam Grier
I do a movie once every four years and they call it a comeback.
Pam Grier
Women were victims. Their husbands could beat them up when they wanted to. They couldn't work. They could be maimed and killed by their husbands.
Pam Grier
Out of necessity comes genius.
Pam Grier
I grew up in a family where we weren't allowed to talk about beauty or to put any emphasis on physical appearance.
Pam Grier
I like to do all kinds of films.
