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

More quotes by Reese Witherspoon
That said, I'd love to do a musical, either in film or on stage.
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 always say that it's very important not to blame one person. You have to own whatever part of it you're responsible for. It takes a lot of soul-searching. It's important to go through that, because hopefully you won't repeat yourself.
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
Well I always wanted to be Dolly Parton when I was a little girl. I was obsessed with her.
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
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
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
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
Women want to see the truth. They don't want to see some perfect girl.
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
Everything I sang sounded awful. So I went outside and I screamed. Everyone pretty much agreed it was awful.
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
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'm just chatty. But I do express my opinion.
Reese Witherspoon
Never miss an opportunity to just shut up.
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'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
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
My kids make me laugh every day. And they're so supportive. As I get older, they understand those things I worried about - the guilt of being gone - in a way that's so healing for me, when they say, Mom, we know you love what you do. We love to watch you do what you do.
Reese Witherspoon
