Ive always had a fascination for animals. I loved watching them, and even then I thought of them as beings rather than pets. I call it a birth affect!

More quotes by Tippi Hedren
I use every single thing that Alfred Hitchcock taught me in my acting career I am very grateful for the education he gave me in making motion pictures.
Tippi Hedren
Birds I am fine with - spiders are an entirely different matter.
Tippi Hedren
When you love someone, you treat them well.
Tippi Hedren
You don't see sick animals in the wild. You don't see lame animals in the wild, and its all because of the predator: the lion, the tiger, the leopard, all the cats.
Tippi Hedren
I had to have help getting up these stairs because I've been tackled by so many lions and tigers. Really. I'm like an old football player.
Tippi Hedren
I was at the end of the studio system so when I walked into movies, I had a magnificent suite in which I had a living room and a kitchen and a complete makeup room. I had everything just for me. With the independents, you're kind of roughing it, literally.
Tippi Hedren
I kind of look at my modeling career and the Alfred Hitchcock years as stepping stones to what I'm doing now.
Tippi Hedren
To be the object of somebody's obsession is a really awful feeling when you can't return it.
Tippi Hedren
I can look at myself in the mirror, and I can be proud.
Tippi Hedren
Self-belief? My parents gave it to me.
Tippi Hedren
It's going to be very interesting to see somebody playing me.
Tippi Hedren
I really need to work. People think that I'm no longer interested in acting and only interested in work-ing with the animals. Obviously I have given that impression, but it is not how I feel. I think I'm a good actor. I think I look OK. I don't understand why I'm not working all the time.
Tippi Hedren
Because of 'The Birds' and 'Marnie' I was, as the expression goes, hot in Hollywood and producers and directors wanted to hire me.
Tippi Hedren
My light shines when things get really tough.
Tippi Hedren
Marnie was ahead of its time. People didn't talk about childhood and its effects on adult life. It was taboo to discuss sexuality and psychology and to put all that into a film was shocking.
Tippi Hedren
I would love to work with Ron Howard. I think he is brilliant. I love the stories that he chooses. Theyre always very personal and intense. He loves a lot of emotion, and hes so well equipped to pull all of that out of the actors. I really love that kind of thing and I think thats what movies should be about.
Tippi Hedren
I know so many people who are eaten up by regret. It manifests itself in so many ways. They either become mentally a bit off, or they get very fat, or they are just horribly depressed.
Tippi Hedren
I shouldn't be married.
Tippi Hedren
In fact, I think I have had a ghost in my house. Although not active lately, unexplainable things would happen and the kitties were particularly sensitive - especially, Marlon Brando... the cat not the man.
Tippi Hedren
I was studying my 'Bold and Beautiful' script the other day, lying in a hammock, when one of my Siberian tigers walked up and grabbed it out of my hand - she wanted to play. See - teeth marks!
