Debra Winger Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Debra Winger:

In the early part of my life I carried the flame for fiery women: perky women who were not dumb.

People who make lots of money at what they do should just shut up about it.

Debra Winger

I think it's a little irresponsible for women who choose surgery to then say they can portray the average woman on the street, because if the average woman can't afford those treatments, then she's going to say, 'I'm 53 and I don't look like that,' and start thinking she's ugly or inadequate.

Debra Winger

It's inconceivable to some people that that wouldn't be the sexiest thing to do in the whole world: to be a movie star, and make money, and be pampered, and whatever.

Debra Winger

Just because we're on schedule is no reason to shoot bad acting. Someone once said to me, 'You're inconsiderate.' And I said, 'Inconsiderate? Bad acting is the ultimate inconsideration.' It's a collective slap to a million faces at the same time.

Debra Winger

When I was younger I probably didn't understand something basic about tact, but I think it kept faint-hearted people at arm's distance and that's not such a bad thing, because life is short and I know the kind of people I want to work with.

Debra Winger

I just want to sleep, and eat, and learn about what's going on in the world.

Debra Winger

You see people on TV flying in to places just to pick up a baby, or brush some flies away. That's great if they can bring that issue to public attention. But that's not what I wanted to do. I was interested in committing to something that I could function in whether I was Debra Winger or not. Because nobody might care about that next week.

Debra Winger

I do admit to being challenging, but it's always for the work, it's never personal. I will walk out on a scene if it's all lit and ready to go but it's not happening.

Debra Winger

My grandmother gave birth to 13 children and I come from a long line of women who gave birth in their 40s.

Debra Winger

Granted there are only seven stories in the universe. And I agree with that. But give me a great variation of those stories. And literate.

Debra Winger

If I could have one prayer answered, I would pray for patience. I move so fast sometimes. I try to slow down.

Debra Winger

I just live in the truth and think that every moment counts.

Debra Winger

Never say never, but the thought of electively cutting oneself is beyond my grasp, and I also object to it politically. Denying the lines on our faces makes a comment about age and wisdom I don't care to make.

Debra Winger

I think when it comes to Botox and surgery, actresses should do it or not do it, but be honest about their choices.

Debra Winger

I don't think that I'm that easy to live with. I have to be reminded that I can have fun. I need my family to remind me in a loving and nice way to lighten up.

Debra Winger

I don't believe in careers. I believe in work. I'm not interested in some 'big picture that would be really good for me'.

Debra Winger

I used to love going on a junket and promoting a film when it was not a 24-hour news cycle, and when there weren't so many media outlets. You could actually talk about the film.

Debra Winger

Most bad behavior comes from insecurity.

Debra Winger

I am one of the happiest people I know. And that's a weird place to have arrived at from being a depressed Jewish kid.

Debra Winger

I was the all-American face. You name it, honey - American Dairy Milk, Metropolitan Life insurance, McDonald's, Burger King. The Face That Didn't Matter - that's what I called my face.

In the early part of my life I carried the flame for fiery women: perky women who were not dumb.

Debra Winger

When you connect with a cause, it's like falling in love.

I always loved working as an actress, but I didn't understand why I couldn't just opt out of being famous. And then I realized you can, and I think I did. And eventually, I came to understand that you can do that and also keep working.

Debra Winger

If you want to get a facelift, get a facelift. Don't sit there and talk about why you got it because of the pressure.

Debra Winger

I had a very insightful friend who warned me back when I stopped reading scripts, 'It's easier to change directions while you're still moving.' If you stop, it's harder to get started again. I still don't think I made the wrong decision, but he was right.

Debra Winger

I never lost my interest in acting but I did lose my interest in the business and what I had to go through to make a film. I felt saturated, you know, like a sponge when it's saturated - it's not good.

Debra Winger

I want to start a trend of women as we really look. Some good things, some not so good. I am tired of looking at frozen faces.

Debra Winger

I was never afraid of failure after that because, I think, coming that close to death you get kissed. With the years, the actual experience of course fades, but the flavor of it doesn't. I just had a real sense of what choice do I have but to live fully?

Debra Winger

Show me the story. I just want to tell a story that pulls me forward.

Debra Winger

I became an actor because I couldn't not.

I happen to be interested in watching a face age. I like faces of women aging so it makes me personally quite sad. That's a beautiful gift from God. If people don't want to see that anymore then I won't be in anymore movies.

Debra Winger

I need my family to remind me in a loving and nice way to lighten up.
