My grandfather was the first feminist in my life. He taught me if a woman can do something, a man will respect her.
Pam Grier
I'm an Air force Brat and I've lived all over the world and this country and there were people in my community who were gay - nurses, hairdressers, designers - people who just had a different way about themselves.
Pam Grier
I like serious films, the moneymaking blockbusters that don't make any kind of sense and John Carpenter films.
Pam Grier
If you're stupid and you're arrogant, you're going to get hurt.
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.

Sex, action, special effects, and violence sell.
Pam Grier
My family was very, very receptive to all all races, religions.

Let's start working towards wellness, a healing in our community, a healing in relationships, so male and female can finally sit down and understand that that young boy or young girl saw behavior exhibited by their parents that was negative and abusive and they're going to pass it on.
Pam Grier
And as I reinvent myself and I'm constantly curious about everything, I can't wait to see what's around the corner in newfound art and entertainment and exploration.
Pam Grier
When you are an actor, you bring a tool in your craft but you are not that person.
Pam Grier
The African-American community is not monolithic. It's liberal and conservative.
Pam Grier
I do a movie once every four years and they call it a comeback.
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
Women are allowed more freedoms and we're fighting for more freedoms, we're experiencing more freedoms won.
Pam Grier
I was able to be distant by portraying another person, another character, if you will, and I found myself not stuttering and not having anxiety attacks when I was portraying another soul, another being, and I found comfort in that. I think many actors do, playing someone other than themselves.
Pam Grier
I've never considered myself to be beautiful, and I still don't.
Pam Grier
When you come from an environment that's military, and they don't stress that topic of aesthetics or beauty pageants and makeup, there are a lot of things you just don't have that city girls have. Or the country girl who goes to movies and dreams of going to Hollywood as an actress.
Pam Grier
The first movie that I saw was Godzilla and I loved it.
