More quotes by Reese Witherspoon
God, America is a country predicated on listening to everybody. When did we stop listening to one another?
Reese Witherspoon
I always let my husband read the script so he knows what's about to happen to his wife. When I played Cheryl Strayed in Wild, I'd get really mad about certain things, I'd say really profound things, and I'd curse out of nowhere. He'd say, Are you you, or are you Cheryl?
Reese Witherspoon
Being a Southern person and a blonde, it's not a good combination. Immediately, when people meet you, they think of you as not being smart.
Reese Witherspoon
I had someone correct my grammar once on a blind date, and within the first 10 minutes the date was over. You just don't correct somebody's grammar. That's just not okay. I'm from Tennessee, so I probably say everything wrong. I might have said ain't, or something like that.
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
Kids are the best part of my day. I don't wake up to make movies. I wake up to hang out with my family.
Reese Witherspoon
I thought I was going to go back to Stanford, and then I got Election. I loved being an actor.
Reese Witherspoon
Art is art. Television has elevated itself, in certain ways, but it's always pushed people's consciousness.
Reese Witherspoon
I don't want to discount the beautiful work that the fashion houses do, but somehow, just focusing on what you're wearing feels reductive.
Reese Witherspoon
I'm just chatty. But I do express my opinion.
Reese Witherspoon
It's fun chasing boys, especially when you're young, but I think it takes time and life experience to notice the other boys.
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
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
Well I always wanted to be Dolly Parton when I was a little girl. I was obsessed with her.
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
It was definitely a scary situation and I was frightened for my husband, but that is no excuse. I was disrespectful to the officer who was just doing his job. I have nothing but respect for the police and I'm very sorry for my behavior.
Reese Witherspoon
This is a movement to say we're more than just our dresses. ... It's hard being a woman in Hollywood or any industry.
Reese Witherspoon
Exploring female rage on film doesn't frighten me - it might frighten a lot of people in my business, but, gosh, I know a lot about that, from personal experience and friends' experiences.
Reese Witherspoon
But with the right kind of coaching and determination you can accomplish anything and the biggest accomplishment that I feel I got from the film was overcoming that fear.
Reese Witherspoon
We each own one car, and we have a reasonable house. It's a lovely place to be, but it's not extravagant.
Reese Witherspoon
