I think Edith Evans is the most marvelous actress in the world and she can look beautiful. People who aren't beautiful can look beautiful. She can look as beautiful as Diana Cooper, who was the most beautiful woman in the world.
Vivien Leigh

When I was at school at Paris, I had special lessons from Mademoiselle Antoine, an actress at the Comedie Francaise, and I was taken to every sort of play. I felt very grand.
Vivien Leigh

I am going to be a great actress.

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

This war is like an actress who is getting old. It is less and less photogenic and more and more dangerous.
Robert Capa

My favorite actress of all times is Bette Davis in Dark Victory. I have seen it six or seven times, and I still cry.

I cannot absorb living in a world where I have an Oscar for best actress and Denzel doesn't have one for best actor.
Julia Roberts

If you really want to help the American theater, don't be an actress, dahling. Be an audience.
Tallulah Bankhead

If you're an actress or a musician, everyone thinks you're hot.
Natalie Portman

I never really thought about being an actress or being anything like that. I was always a bit scared as well because of the thing about models becoming an actress and all that.
Gisele Bundchen

I'm not an actress, you know. I don't know what's going on. And I'm supposed to be the villain.
Gisele Bundchen

Acting is something different to everybody. I just know that if you watch an actor or actress getting better and better, I think that's them just understanding themselves better and better.
Cameron Diaz

I'm a pretty girl who's a model who doesn't suck as an actress.
Cameron Diaz

The most difficult thing in the world is to start a career known only for your looks, and then to try to become a serious actress. No one will take you seriously once you are known as the pretty woman.
Penelope Cruz

I'd like to do a comedy with Emma Thompson. I admire her as an actress so much. I love her. And I didn't know it until recently that her whole career started in comedy.
Gene Wilder

While being called beautiful is extremely flattering, I would much rather be noticed for my work as an actress.
Halle Berry

Another thing that's pathetic is this rule that you have to look ugly to get respect as an actress. Jessica Lange had to make herself look really bad to prove that she had amazing talent.
Kevyn Aucoin

I just knew that was what I wanted to do. I was going to perform as a singer; I was going to perform as a dancer, and I was, you know, going to do movies and be an actress. I was going to do it or die trying. That's what my life was.
Jennifer Lopez

I feel I want to grow as an actress and be better. I want to progress as a singer and songwriter, and produce movies and everything. So there'll be no time when I feel I've done it all.
Jennifer Lopez

I was always a singer and a dancer, and I always wanted to be an actress. For me, it's all just one thing.
