There are a lot of parts of who I am that no one in the public has ever known, but the older I've gotten, the more I've appreciated my own strange little self and come to terms with that.

More quotes by Patricia Arquette
In the United States we have more women in poverty than any other industrialized nation.
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.
Patricia Arquette
There's a ripple effect in being underpaid for women. Ten thousand women are turned down every day for domestic abuse shelters. Part of domestic abuse is often economic suppression the male might take your paycheck every week and never give you money or allow you to work because he's too jealous.
Patricia Arquette
It's important for me as an actor to be able to make a living.
Patricia Arquette
I think there can always be beauty in struggle. I mean, as far as childbirth, I had my son in the hospital, but then I had my daughter at home. There's no doubt that there's a struggling in birth, and a beauty and a horror and fear and joy too.
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
You want your partner to objectify you.
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
As a teenager, you have so much energy and hormones and you feel powerless in your life.
Patricia Arquette
We have states that are throwing away the DNA of rapists. How can a woman be so inconsequential, that we as a nation aren't standing up and doing something about this intimate, violent act?
Patricia Arquette
To every woman who gave birth, to every citizen and taxpayer, it's our time to have wage equality once and for all and equal rights for women of the United States of America!
Patricia Arquette
There's tens of millions of families with single mothers who are living at 100 to 200 percent below the poverty level and these are not women that are on welfare, these are working women. How different would there life be if they're making an extra 40 to 60 cents to the dollar. We can't do this to our kids anymore.
Patricia Arquette
There's something I really like about network TV. You have this humongous audience, tens of millions of people, and you really can be in a little hut in Thailand you really can be in the middle of an apartment in Dubai. There's something about public entertainment that I always liked. I like smaller movies, and I like public entertainment.
Patricia Arquette
The United States has more women and girls in prison than any other industrialized nation on earth.
Patricia Arquette
I worry about women globally. When we talk about having a presidential candidate who would tear up the Paris accords, who doesn't believe in global warming, we know that poor women and children are going to be the most vulnerable when we start seeing rapid effects of global warming.
Patricia Arquette
There's no doubt that there's a struggling in birth, and a beauty and a horror and fear and joy too.
Patricia Arquette
The number-one reason women say they returned to their abuser is financial insecurity. Often they have kids with them. 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
Older homeless people are more likely to be women, because they don't have pensions and they are caretakers, so they withdraw from the workforce and end up having no pension if their husband leaves them, so the whole thing is just a nightmare.
Patricia Arquette
Television allows you to actually make a living, feed your children, send them to college and important significant things. To have the ability, the luxury, to make the choices of doing little movies where people cannot pay you.
Patricia Arquette
I don't read my reviews, but I have a bunch of them and I will when I'm 80.
