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.

Dear Diary: My teen angst bullshit now has a body count.
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
It's interesting because First Wives Club was the first movie that made a shitload of money that starred all women over a certain age. That was a milestone that made you think, Oh, things are going to change.
Winona Ryder
If a film is well made, then great, whatever it's about.
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
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
Crazy isn't being broken, or swallowing a dark secret. It's you or me, amplified.
Winona Ryder
I write pretty much every day, but I don't have any desire to publish anything.
Winona Ryder
I remember realizing, when I did Little Women [1994], that that was the only time girls that age were being written about. It was always boys - from David Copperfield to Lord of the Flies to Holden Caulfield. There were never young women going through adolescence or teen years there were only little girls.
Winona Ryder
But I've always felt a need to have a life which is completely separate - at least as far as possible - from the kind of illusory lifestyle that comes with being a celebrity.
Winona Ryder
I feel my best when I'm happy.
Winona Ryder
I'm not into wrinkles.
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
The actors that I do know are people who I think have souls, you know?
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
I've read the Bible. I think the Bible's a great book, but it's a novel. It's beautifully written and la-di-da, but people really took it the wrong way.
Winona Ryder
One thing you have to have when you act is energy.
Winona Ryder
As an actress, you want to try new things. You don't want to repeat yourself. That becomes more important to you, as you get older.
Winona Ryder
You're lucky if you're in three great movies, or even one great movie. I've been so lucky. But if you rely on the business to dictate whether you're happy, it gets really complicated. You just can't do that. There have been times in my life that I've done that, and I've found it depressing.

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?
