The three things I said when I came out of school were I want to work consistently, I want to do good work and I want to be paid fairly, and that's happened. But I didn't become an actress for the money. I do it for other reasons.
Angela Bassett

There aren't any hard women, only soft men.
Raquel Welch

We've never had nannies. We've had great grandparents, great support from family, and the kids have been on every set: they've seen me play Gollum, King Kong, Captain Haddock, the lot. They totally get it, and they want to go into the business. Ruby, my daughter, is very keen to become an actress.
Andy Serkis

A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
You absolutely feel, as a black actress, that you've got to ride the wave because there's just so few roles. I hate to play that card, but it's the truth. There's not a lot of roles.
Viola Davis
Image
You have to understand being an actress, and being an African American actress of a certain hue, I think that you have to be bold with your choices. Even when you're not bold with your choices, have people see it as bold.

I got to work with Jennifer Tilly, she was amazing. Such, such a smart actress.
April Bowlby

Everything that I play as an actress is a different aspect of me.
Virginia Madsen
Image
Some critics saw fit to say that I was a great actress. I thought that was a foolish, wicket thing to say because it put such an onus and such a responsibility onto me, which I simply wasn't able to carry.
Vivien Leigh

I'm not a film star I am an actress. Being a film star is such a false life, lived for fake values and for publicity.
Vivien Leigh
Image
I'm a character actress, plain and simple... Who can worry about a career? Have a life. Movie stars have careers - actors work, and then they don't work, and then they work again.
Frances McDormand
Image
I still battle with my deeply boring diet of, essentially, yogurt and breakfast cereal and granola bars. I hate dieting. I hate having to do it to be the 'right' size. I'm hungry all the time. I think I'm a slender person, but the industry apparently doesn't. All actresses are hungry all the time, I think.
Julianne Moore
Image
I don't have any regrets. When I quit college and moved to Los Angeles to become an actress, it was so that I would not look back and have any regrets.
Amy Weber
Image
Don't associate me with comedy. And please don't say actress. I would never call myself any of those things. I hate it when people call me that.
Amy Sedaris
Image
I call myself a comic.But I started as an actress. I did plays since I was 5.
Amy Schumer

It’s believing in those dreams and facing our fears head on that allows us to live our lives beyond our limits.
Amy Purdy
Image
I really liked the idea of playing that kind of optimistic, super-intense, go-get-'em spirit combined with being a little bit of an outsider. I am really drawn to girls of that age in general, who believe they can be a waitress, scientist, actress, a dentist, a zookeeper...and who really aren't boy-crazy.
Amy Poehler

My mother told me I should be a secretary, but I wanted to be an actress from when I was very young.
Barbra Streisand
Image
Right now the music is more of a hobby since I'm making a good living as an actress.
Amy Jo Johnson
Image
My job as an actress is to make things work and come up with reasons of my own and not just fill in the blanks for anybody else, you know what I mean?
Amy Adams
Image
Being an actress hasn't made me insecure. I was insecure long before I declared I was an actress.
Amy Adams
Image
As an actress people always tease me like: if there's anything you can do to make yourself unattractive you will do it.
Amy Adams
Image
Someone I've always admired is Catherine O'Hara... I think she's one of the best actresses in the country, not only comedy. I just think she's just a step aside from everybody, she's just wonderful.
Fred Willard
Image
Being an actress is a very physical thing. If I didn't look the way I looked, I would never have started in films.
