There are things in my life that are hard to reconcile, like divorce. Sometimes it is very difficult to make sense of how it could possibly happen. Laying blame is so easy. I don’t have time for hate or negativity in my life. There’s no room for it.

Reese Witherspoon
Never miss an opportunity to just shut up.
Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon
God, America is a country predicated on listening to everybody. When did we stop listening to one another?
Reese Witherspoon
I'd always ask my grandma, who was so, so smart, why she didn't work, and she would explain that her parents didn't approve of her working after she had children. She didn't feel like she had choices.
Reese Witherspoon
I think women are natural caretakers. They take care of everybody. They take care of their husbands and their kids and their dogs, and don't spend a lot of time just getting back and taking time out.
Reese Witherspoon
I'm at a point in my life where I could make 20 more movies, but I want to make 20 more movies that matter to me.
Reese Witherspoon
I have a history, a long history of being stereotyped as a five-foot-two woman, which is very limiting. I've worked so hard to create characters that have dignity. And I think everybody knows that I have a very pro-woman message in my work - and in my life.
Reese Witherspoon
I'm encouraging these women, like Cheryl Strayed, to take the jump to writing for the screen. She is adapting her book Tiny Beautiful Things for us. They're infinitely capable of tackling the format.
Reese Witherspoon
Your body is just a vessel for who you are as a person. And until you work on what you give back to the world, it doesn't matter what you look like on the outside.
Reese Witherspoon
Everybody needs love. Everyone deserves it.
Reese Witherspoon
I was all of these women. I've been a young mom I've been a divorcée I've been a single mom. I've been the working mom versus the nonworking mom.
