Quote

I thought it was a cool parallel. Being replaced by the young thing. I know that definitely happens in Hollywood. It's harder to find good roles, and suddenly there's new girls. I'm at that age I've been warned my whole life about.

I'm not into older guys. To tell you the truth, Richard Gere is not the sexiest man alive, in my book.

I remember when I was doing Mermaids [1990], I was 16 and they gave me a B12 shot once. My parents weren't there, and when they did come, they freaked out. They were terrified, because of the Judy Garland stories. I know it's just vitamin B, but it did give you a boost.

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?

My father believes that Western religions are death cults, which I agree with.

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

You try to get out there and live. I've always had good friends who've been very supportive and help make me feel good and grounded because I've never felt attached to the film industry.

I, myself, am strange and unusual.

In America, I don't know how much longer the environment is going to exist. I sort of strongly believe that we're in danger.
Winona Ryder

There are actors I know personally, or I've heard them say, The less known about me, the better, because I just want people to think of me as the character. I think Matt Damon said that recently. He has a point and I think I get that.
