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.

More quotes by 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
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 believe ambition is not a dirty word. It's just believing in yourself and your abilities. Imagine this: What would happen if we were all brave enough to be a little bit more ambitious? I think the world would change.
Reese Witherspoon
One honest voice is louder than a crowd.
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 had parents who believed I could do anything - and I know how that made me feel. I think both my parents, having careers in the medical profession, feel they are helping people on a daily basis, and that was inculcated in me as a value. I had to struggle with giving up the idea of becoming a doctor myself.
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
If something seems frightening or horrible, I should probably do it.
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
It's funny that it all becomes about clothes. It's bizarre. You work your butt off and then you win an award and it's all about your dress. You can't get away from it.
Reese Witherspoon
People seem to really enjoy laughing at me.
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
For our first date, I made Ryan Hamburger Helper, which is basically what I grew up on. I make my own version of it now, with macaroni and cheese and hamburger meat. And the kids - it's their favorite dinner.
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
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
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
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
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.
Reese Witherspoon
I grew up in Tennessee. We didn't know what Louis Vuitton was. I had to order all my prom outfits out of catalogs.
Reese Witherspoon
The truth is... I gave my heart away a long time ago, my whole heart... and I never really got it back.
Reese Witherspoon
