More quotes by Winona Ryder
That's an aspect of this business which can be very frustrating and aggravating. Most of what is written about you is wrong and so much of what does get printed is often about personal things that you don't want to have other people read about.
Winona Ryder
I was raised to believe that religion is a beautiful thing, but it's fiction.
Winona Ryder
As a character, it's very interesting to play someone who wants to change their life and have him change it.
Winona Ryder
What's awful about being famous and being an actress is when people come up to you and touch you. That's scary, and they just seem to think it's okay to do it, like you're public property.
Winona Ryder
Well, yeah! Now they're considered golden oldies, which is awesome. I was watching Little Women recently, and I didn't want to get up for fear of missing something. And Heathers is like my own Rocky Horror Picture Show I recite the lines when it's on. It may seem odd, but I think it's because they're really good movies.
Winona Ryder
I was never strategic really, but back when I was starting out no one cared. In the acting community, box office didn't matter. I really think it was a mistake when they started paying people like $20 million to do a movie because now it's all people think about. Is she worth it? Is he worth it?
Winona Ryder
I think it's important to have as much as a normal life and take the time to get perspective because it only helps your work in the long run.
Winona Ryder
I'm not a big one on - I don't know what to call it - getting all glamorous. I don't really worry about my looks, and I don't worry about getting old. Exterior beauty doesn't mean a lot to me.
Winona Ryder
I was inspired by lots of people, certainly in acting and in writing and stuff, but I never wanted to be somebody else.
Winona Ryder
There was a time when I was 19 when I really, really, really thought I was going crazy. I was exhausted and going through a terrible depression.
Winona Ryder
A woman who wears high heels is very different, I think, than a woman who wears sandals.
Winona Ryder
I'm very attached to movie theaters and I love going to them. Nothing will ever replace that. It's very romantic and beautiful. I used to want to live inside of one, with a bathtub, a bike and a bed, and just watch movies.
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 binge-watched this show Damages. Glenn Close and Rose Byrne are so good. Lily Tomlin is in it. You see all these great actors and the writing is terrific. There are a lot of shows like that. And there are all these conversations right now about roles for women and being paid equally and all of that, but I think what it really is, is opportunity.
Winona Ryder
One thing you have to have when you act is energy.
Winona Ryder
For a long time, I was almost ashamed of being an actress. I felt like it was a shallow occupation. People would be watching my every move.
Winona Ryder
I love westerns. John Ford is one of the 10 best directors.
Winona Ryder
If I showed you scripts from my first few movies, the descriptions of my characters all said 'the ugly girl'.
Winona Ryder
I don't use the Internet, but apparently you can find out everything on it.
Winona Ryder
I was so spoiled in a way. I worked very hard, but there was just a wealth of great roles.
Winona Ryder
