More quotes by Winona Ryder
Bette Davis, she was so brilliant and one of my heroes, but she worked a ton, and then she didn't get All About Eve [1950] until the last minute. Claudette Colbert was supposed to be Margo Channing, but then she broke her back and couldn't do it. That allowed Davis to play her age.

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
I was exhausted and going through a terrible depression.
Winona Ryder
I'm not into older guys. To tell you the truth, Richard Gere is not the sexiest man alive, in my book.
Winona Ryder
I think that as actresses - and I've definitely gone through this in a really bizarre way, because I worked so much and was really lucky with the roles that I got when I was younger - I remember hearing the older actors saying, It gets tough, and thinking, Really? I can't imagine.
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
It's an indication of how cynical our society has become that any kind of love story with a sad theme is automatically ridiculed as sentimental junk.
Winona Ryder
Certainly with The Crucible, what I love is that every role in that is so crucial.But there's something almost comic. I remember there's that line where she says, I am 18 and a woman, however single, which killed me every time!
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
One thing you have to have when you act is energy.
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.
Winona Ryder
I would love to someday do a play. I did one when I was very young in San Francisco, where I grew up. A girl can dream.
Winona Ryder
I think it's important to have as much as a normal life and take the time to get perspective because it only helps your work in the long run.
Winona Ryder
I definitely believe in legalizing drugs. It does take the mystery away. It takes the money away, so suddenly there are no drug wars. If you're a junkie, you can get help easier.
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
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.
Winona Ryder
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
I don't use the Internet, but apparently you can find out everything on it.
Winona Ryder
I'm not a drug user myself. I'm too little to take drugs - my body can't take it.
Winona Ryder
I have this sense that I didn't really start growing up until my twenties.
