More quotes by Winona Ryder
My parents are awesome, but they're pretty left-wing.
Winona Ryder
I approached work very seriously. I never went out. I couldn't fathom people who could go out to clubs... But I definitely went through a time where I was just terrified and exhausted and I didn't really understand. Hollywood... It just got to be too much for me.
Winona Ryder
Suddenly you're the mom, or you go from ... You're not an ingénue, you don't want to play an ingénue, but it's like that line in The First Wives Club [1996]: There are only three ages for women in Hollywood: babe, district attorney, and Driving Miss Daisy.
Winona Ryder
Somehow I was invited to visit with Audrey Hepburn. I had this afternoon with her, and she gave me a couple things. She was so gracious and everything you would think that she would be.
Winona Ryder
I really lucked out in terms of how my parents encouraged me to develop my own personality so I didn't just feel incredibly insecure and like I didn't fit in.
Winona Ryder
I grew up in San Francisco. My parents were not hippies they were writers. They were very active politically, but on the intellectual side, not on the taking drugs in a field and listening to the Grateful Dead side.
Winona Ryder
I would love to someday do a play. I did one when I was very young in San Francisco, where I grew up. A girl can dream.
Winona Ryder
Dear Diary: My teen angst bullshit now has a body count.
Winona Ryder
There's like this great thing that Bette Davis said when someone asked her, How do you get into Hollywood? Take Fountain!
Winona Ryder
Certainly with The Crucible, what I love is that every role in that is so crucial.But there's something almost comic. I remember there's that line where she says, I am 18 and a woman, however single, which killed me every time!
Winona Ryder
I watched this documentary on Madonna. I remember I grew up hearing she wanted to rule the world. Actually, she worked really hard - really, really hard.
Winona Ryder
I'm too young to play lawyers. But I've been really lucky because I never got labeled. I never did the John Hughes thing. I did adult movies. I'm not bragging or anything, but I think that I've chosen really good roles. I've played different people and showed that I have a little bit of range.
Winona Ryder
It’s equally as important to me to be a good friend, and a good sister, and a good daughter. I’m very close with my family and friends.
Winona Ryder
Even though I never really had to pound the pavement as an actor, I always worked really hard. But, at the same time, I always felt like people thought that I didn't have to struggle even though I was struggling.
Winona Ryder
I will say, though, that San Francisco is a very friendly city. It's the kind of place where people smile at you and you can strike up conversations on the street, so there's always an adjustment when I come back to New York. If I smile at someone on the street in New York, then they think there's something up - like, Why is she smiling?
Winona Ryder
I've loved making movies. I feel like I've been so lucky because I've gotten to be in movies that are some of my favorites, regardless of my being in them - like 'Heathers.'
Winona Ryder
If something brilliant comes along but I really feel like it's too old for me - that I'm not gonna have the experience it takes - I'm not gonna do it. Even if it's a big mistake for my career.
Winona Ryder
Sometimes I'll watch a movie, and it's got some big star in it playing a working-class person, and the character is in a grocery store, and you can kind of tell, from just watching the scene, that this actor doesn't do their own shopping. So you have to have some sense of reality.
Winona Ryder
When I met Johnny, I was pure virgin. He changed that. He was my first everything. My first real kiss. My first real boyfriend. My first fiancé. The first guy I had sex with. So he'll always be in my heart. Forever. Kind of funny that word.
Winona Ryder
I think I really scored with my parents. All of my friends pretty much came from broken homes, and my parents are still together, but not only that, they're still in love and still write together.
