    Michelle Pfeiffer's quotes

  • “Like all parents, my husband and I just do the best we can, hold our breath and hope we've set aside enough money for our kid's therapy”
  • “Children will respond to this on a different level than they normally respond to animated movies. They won't be entertained in the same way, but it will make them curious.”
  • “I'm a perfectionist, so I can drive myself mad -- and other people, too. At the same time, I think that's one of the reasons I'm successful. Because I really care about what I do.”
  • “Just standing around looking beautiful is so boring.”
  • “For me, getting comfortable with being famous was hard - that whole side of it, the loss of anonymity, the loss of privacy. Giving up that part of your life and not having control of it.”
  • “Somewhere along the line I made the switch and was able to look at the bight side rather than the dark side all the time. Now I look at everything I have and think how lucky I am.”
  • “Why didn't we do this before?”
  • “Could Never Be Your Woman”
  • “I wasn't able to do any press for it.”
  • “I used to smoke two packs a day and I just hate being a nonsmoker... but I will never consider myself a nonsmoker because I always find smokers the most interesting people at the table.”
  • “Having a full-blown company is just something that I don't have the time for now, ... I was just starting to feel really depleted, and the kids are getting older and the demands are different now.”
  • “I look like a duck. It's the way my mouth curls up, or my nose tilts up. I should have played Howard the Duck.”
  • “I like being prepared. When things are going on and I have to learn my lines at the last minute, I'm never quite secure enough to allow it to be spontaneous. So the more prepared I am, the more I'm able to kind of let it go . . .”
  • “They were distracted for a split-second, which was all it took for the other man to jump into the car.”
  • “I have days when I just feel I look like a dog.”
  • “I'm afraid to be alone, I'm afraid not to be alone. I'm afraid of what I am, what I'm not, what I might become, what I might never become. I don't want to stay at my job for the rest of my life, but I'm afraid to leave. And I'm just tired, you know? I'm just so tired of being afraid.”
