If something brilliant comes along but I really feel like it's too old for me - that I'm not gonna have the experience it takes - I'm not gonna do it. Even if it's a big mistake for my career.

More quotes by Winona Ryder
I'm not a drug user myself. I'm too little to take drugs - my body can't take it.
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
You can't pay enough money to... cure that feeling of being broken and confused.
Winona Ryder
I remember the whole thing with the word ambition. I was messed up for a while because I associated it with certain people who just want to be famous. I think, for a while, it was kind of a dirty word for women.
Winona Ryder
Reverend Hale is so interesting because at first he's like, Oh, she's got the mark. Then by the end he's like, You're all crazy.
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
Bette Davis in All About Eve was huge for me. Her acting was staggering.
Winona Ryder
I don't use the Internet, but apparently you can find out everything on it.
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
A woman who wears high heels is very different, I think, than a woman who wears sandals.
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
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
Most of my wardrobe is vintage, and I've worn dresses to the Oscars that I got for $10.
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
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 think it's really important to have a life and have interests outside of this [movie] business, and not rely on this business to validate you as a human being. If you do that, you're really in a dangerous spot.
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
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 feel my best when I'm happy.
Winona Ryder
I was exhausted and going through a terrible depression.
