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.

More quotes by Patricia Arquette
I grew up in a hippie commune so I have a real hippie part of me.
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
As a teenager, you have so much energy and hormones and you feel powerless in your life.
Patricia Arquette
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.
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
In the United States we have more women in poverty than any other industrialized nation.
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
What I did find out because I grew up with a lot of chaos early on: sometimes, you're born into a family, and their norm is already in your red zone of dangerous feeling or feeling too chaotic. You don't get to really do anything about that when you're a kid.
Patricia Arquette
The good news is that we have a very active part of America that wants some radical progress.
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
It's going to take from 40 to 118 years for the pay gap to close for women if we just go along with the status quo, so we need some serious, radical change.
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
The United States has more women and girls in prison than any other industrialized nation on earth.
Patricia Arquette
To be a woman in law enforcement on television, I think, is sort of important. It's a powerful position for a woman to be in, but also to be looking at these new technologies, exploring these new technologies.
Patricia Arquette
I'm the only nerd with a piece of paper.
Patricia Arquette
It's important for me as an actor to be able to make a living.
Patricia Arquette
I find that men are far more vain than women.
Patricia Arquette
A lot of being an actor is being something that people imagine you to be.
Patricia Arquette
I think there can always be beauty in struggle.
Patricia Arquette
I don't have a goal but I just want to work on movies that I really like.
