More quotes by Winona Ryder
It's really good to be able to think about past loves without having a pit in my stomach, or cringing or feeling heart-broken, or like they hate you. Don't you think?
Winona Ryder
Scapegoating will go on forever. We need someone to blame - illegal immigrants, single moms, people in prison. We need someone to victimize.
Winona Ryder
The fact that I got into acting at all was kind of fluke-ish. I loved movies, but I can't remember ever really wanting to be an actress, and I certainly didn't imagine ever being in a movie. I think I wanted to be a writer.
Winona Ryder
Dear Diary: My teen angst bullshit now has a body count.
Winona Ryder
I'm not interested in playing the girl that's just there to make the guy, you know, give him a talking to.
Winona Ryder
My dad took me to all the best rock and punk shows when I was growing up and music has always been a part of my life. So I'm very interested in the music scene and I suppose that's why I've ended up going out with musicians. Dave Pirner is still one of my best friends.
Winona Ryder
It would be great if teenagers could make movies. It's sad how some writers think they can write about stuff they don't understand.
Winona Ryder
I feel my best when I'm happy.
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
I don't believe I am influencing anybody but myself.
Winona Ryder
Remember, I'm the kind of kid who used to get stuffed into a locker by school bullies. I've never felt like I'm a big star at any level of my life.
Winona Ryder
I'm a really private person. I just love my work. I feel like celebrity has changed so much, in this culture. Ever since they started with those reality shows and people that aren't actors but they're really famous, it's gotten very different from when I started out. So, the idea of ever becoming more than what I had is not really what I want.
Winona Ryder
Bette Davis in All About Eve was huge for me. Her acting was staggering.
Winona Ryder
What's great is my parents aren't stuck in the '60s. My dad is so into the culture of today.
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
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
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
As an actress, you go where the stories are. I don't really care where it's seen, at this point. I just want to tell good stories and do good roles that I haven't done before.
Winona Ryder
One thing you have to have when you act is energy.
Winona Ryder
Focus should be on the art of film, not on the business of film.
