More quotes by Winona Ryder
I think it's really important to have a life outside of this [movie] business and just be the best person you can be.
Winona Ryder
People think that they just want movies like Pretty Woman, when really they - at least the ones that I know personally - have been waiting for something that doesn't completely insult them.
Winona Ryder
I was very depressed after breaking off my engagement with Johnny ten years ago. I was embarrassingly dramatic at the time, but you have to remember I was only 19 years old.
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
When you finally accept that it's OK not to have answers and it's OK not to be perfect, you realize that feeling confused is a normal part of what it is to be a human being.
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 very lucky because Tim Burton really gave me a career. I don't think Hollywood would've known what to do with me. If I hadn't done 'Beetlejuice,' I think I would've just gone back to my school.
Winona Ryder
Looking back - I did have a lot of success and a lot of great opportunities earlier in my career.
Winona Ryder
It's just people should realize that the celebrity aspect of being an actor is very rarely enjoyable for people like me who would always rather go unnoticed and disappear into the crowd.
Winona Ryder
Actors do these really gross, gun-'em-down movies, and I always wonder why. They're not good movies. And it's like, Why are you doing them? Aren't you rich enough?
Winona Ryder
The older you get, the more yourself you can be and the less worried you are about what other people think.
Winona Ryder
I watched this documentary on Madonna. I remember I grew up hearing she wanted to rule the world. Actually, she worked really hard - really, really hard.
Winona Ryder
I don't want to preach, and I don't want to tell people what to do.
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've learned that it's OK to be flawed, that life can be messy, that some days you glide and some days you fall, but most important, that there are no secret answers out there.
Winona Ryder
I don't use the Internet, but apparently you can find out everything on it.
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
My father believes that Western religions are death cults, which I agree with.
Winona Ryder
When I met Johnny, I was pure virgin. He changed that. He was my first everything. My first real kiss. My first real boyfriend. My first fiancé. The first guy I had sex with. So he'll always be in my heart. Forever. Kind of funny that word.
Winona Ryder
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.
Winona Ryder
