More quotes by 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
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
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
You hope you're saying the right things - but also, as a kid becomes a teenager, you feel like there's a ticking clock for you to tell them everything they need to know.
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
There's something timeless and important about making people laugh, about being the right spot in their day.
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
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
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.
Reese Witherspoon
It really bothers me when people don't use coasters. Particularly on my table.
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
Every day you have to choose and cultivate your own happiness.
Reese Witherspoon
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.
Reese Witherspoon
God bless that women are free in America. We can say what we want, and I do think women will heal the world.
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
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
Never drink to feel better, only drink to feel even better.
Reese Witherspoon
I take the kids to church and Sunday school. They love it. I really think it's important for a child to feel that there are things that are bigger than your life out there.
Reese Witherspoon
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.
Reese Witherspoon
