More quotes by Reese Witherspoon
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
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.
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
I'm trying to make it cool to be a good girl.
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
I love to cook comfort food. I'll make fish and vegetables or meat and vegetables and potatoes or rice. The ritual of it is fun for me, and the creativity of it.
Reese Witherspoon
I got a role in this movie called Freeway playing this really angry, aggressive, violent young woman who believed wholeheartedly in the truth. I had such satisfaction afterward, and I thought, That's what I want to do.
Reese Witherspoon
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.
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
I grew up in Tennessee. We didn't know what Louis Vuitton was. I had to order all my prom outfits out of catalogs.

One honest voice is louder than a crowd.
