Dear Diary: My teen angst bullshit now has a body count.
Winona Ryder
You know you're getting older when they're making TV shows, sequels or plays for things that you did. It's very flattering and very humbling, indeed.
Winona Ryder
Life's short, so if you're going to spend months doing something, it's gotta be pretty special... But I'm very happy to enter my Baby Jane years, and hopefully segue into the Ruth Gordon years.
Winona Ryder
I'm quite comfortable looking at myself in movies, probably because I've been doing it for so long, since I was a kid. So I sort of watched myself grow up and go through adolescence, like, basically on camera.

Money doesn't matter on a deeply personal level. It doesn't make you feel any happier. But of course I am very aware that I don't have to worry about earning a living or about those very important practical things that most people have to worry about on a very real level.

One of my friends committed suicide when I was in high school, and it's the most tragic thing anybody can go through.
Winona Ryder

Winona Ryder
My problems seemed so glamorous to other people, and everyone just thought I was so lucky. But then, I was lucky because my family was really there for me. I think I just felt like I really wanted to hold on to who I was as a person, and try to have as much of a normal life as I could.
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
Society makes suicide so romantic. I mean, you watch these TV movies about teen suicide and you want to jump in front of a bus. Because your biggest fantasy is your own funeral. No one will admit to it, but it's true.
Winona Ryder
I was always like, I'm going to be the drunk judge who's like, 'Objection!' 'In chambers!'
Winona Ryder
I want to be a good person, and a person that people enjoy working with, 'cause I certainly enjoy working with other people.
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 don't believe I am influencing anybody but myself.
Winona Ryder
Break-ups are hard for anybody, but it's particularly tough when it's being documented and you see the person's picture everywhere. Most people don't have that added problem when they break up with someone.
