I played a lawyer in a movie so many times I think I am a lawyer. And clearly I'm not a lawyer, because I got arrested.

I was talking to my friend who's a psychologist, who says a woman's frontal cortex isn't fully developed till 25 and a man's till 28. I was almost 34 when we met he was 39. So I wouldn't say either of us has wildly changed I just love him more and more.

I don't know what I would have done so many times in my life if I hadn't had my girlfriends.

Many people worry so much about managing their careers, but rarely spend half that much energy managing their LIVES. I want to make my life, not just my job, the best it can be. The rest will work itself out.

You do the best you can. But it's hard. When I find things egregiously misrepresentative of women, I'll make a point to say to my son, Turn that off. I don't want to see women behave that way.

Everybody needs love. Everyone deserves it.

I started working on trying to sound like June from the very beginning.

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.

I traveled all over the South looking for factories - to keep production in the South. I wanted to give back to the place and people that raised me.

Even people that know Johnny Cash's music really well and know that he was married don't really know that much about June Carter. So finding out about her really helped to inform my performance and to bring her to the front in a way that she has never been before.

Obviously, this isn't the time in my life that I would have chosen to do this, but I feel like life gives you these challenges for a reason. I feel so happy and glad to be in the place that I am. I really feel blessed. This is something I need to face and take control of.

I like my body so much better after I had kids. Is that a crazy thing to say? I'm more womanly. I feel sexier.
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

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.

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.

The joy we get as actors is out of transforming ourselves into something that's not necessarily anything true to ourselves. And it's a power - not being yourself, and being in the role it's just like another prop.
Reese Witherspoon
Image
As an artist, I feel more strongly than ever that my job on earth is to tell the stories of the invisibles, and women have been invisible on film for a long time.
Reese Witherspoon
Image
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
Image
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?
