Reese Witherspoon
Art is art. Television has elevated itself, in certain ways, but it's always pushed people's consciousness.

Reese Witherspoon
I'm lucky to find a person to share my life, and the best friend I'll ever have.
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 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.
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
My husband is my biggest supporter on earth. He encourages me to put myself out in the world in ways that feel scary, and he's like, I'm always gonna catch you. I'm always gonna be there for you. My supportive mother and family. Honey, it's such a village.
Reese Witherspoon
To be courageous , you have to have an army of people holding you.
