More quotes by Patricia Arquette

They say half of the 66 million women and kids living in poverty in the US wouldn't be if women were just paid their full dollar. That's an enormous impact we could make on child hunger.

Patricia Arquette
When the woman is getting paid drastically less than the male, that whole family is impacted.
Patricia Arquette
Love is a vulnerable thing. Falling in love is like a great drug. But then to really be known and really let someone else be known is very vulnerable. It's a weird thing.
Patricia Arquette
I don't read my reviews, but I have a bunch of them and I will when I'm 80.

The United States has more women and girls in prison than any other industrialized nation on earth.
Patricia Arquette
I find that men are far more vain than women.
Patricia Arquette
I think there can always be beauty in struggle.

I'm very grateful to have my kids in my life they're my greatest teachers. But to pretend it's always easy is just not really true.
Patricia Arquette
Mothering is one of the most beautiful experiences of my life.
Patricia Arquette
A six year old can probably do more on their iPad than you can do and access more. My daughter's swiping away windows and doing all these things that I don't know how to do.

A lot of being an actor is being something that people imagine you to be.
Patricia Arquette
I know that I've had a very fortunate life, but also I think my job as an actor is to connect emotionally to human beings.
Patricia Arquette
Of course, a lot of courtship and dating is about sexual attraction. If you're an attractive person, you have that sort of interest from people, whether you cater to it or not, but when you get older, that's not really the leading thing anymore.
