I find Hollywood really toxic.
Rachel Weisz

If you tell people your ambitions, they usually laugh at you. When I told my girlfriends when I was 12 that I was going to Hollywood, they all laughed. And here I am!
Helen Reddy

But I did an awful lot of work in Hollywood, and in New York for that matter.
Patrick Macnee

Growing up in Hollywood it seemed like every kid was the child of some star.
Liza Minelli

Hollywood today is all about being consistent. All thinking in mainstream film business takes place in one box.
Dirk Benedict

There are so many things I'd like to change in the industry. Everything from the reliance of style over substance to their reluctance to hire me for big budget blockbusters, but the thing I would love most would be if they understood people don't have to be Hollywood beautiful to be sexy or interesting.
Colin Mochrie

I began to feel that the drama of the truth that is in the moment and in the past is richer and more interesting than the drama of Hollywood movies. So I began looking at documentary films.
Ken Burns

Studio 54 made Halloween in Hollywood look like a PTA meeting.
Lorna Luft

Hollywood... a city I was to come back to time and again, in sickness and in health, in success and in failure, with anticipation and with dread.
Dirk Benedict

I was supposed to go to drama school and then go to New York and do theatre. But I grew up on all those fabulous movies and had read all the bold Hollywood books, and I thought I just had to take a look.
Delta Burke

I was the center square on Hollywood Squares for about fifteen weeks.
Jerry Mathers

Sunset Boulevard opened in August 1950, and it was pronounced the best movie ever made about Hollywood.
Gloria Swanson

Hollywood is very much an industry town. Your life becomes caught up in all of the parties and this list and that list. That's not something that I respond well to.
Don Johnson

If you can believe it, Hollywood wanted to change my birthdate. I was born after Valentine's Day, so they wanted to change it to February 14. A Latin lover should be born on Valentine's Day. I said no.
Cesar Romero

I think I have always tried to do the smaller films. I like to jump around and there is something really nice for acting in a smaller film. But I think now, Hollywood's movies certainly involve a younger generation for the most part and so... I love going back and forth.
Sigourney Weaver

Well, I was getting a lot of money then, and I wasn't getting any Hollywood films, so I just did those. I'd always do a play in between. Whenever I ran low on funds, I'd always rush off to do a movie somewhere.
Eli Wallach

Writers never get a very good deal in Hollywood.
Richard O'Brien

I wasn't campaigning for a role in a Hollywood television series, it was a fluke. So you've got to have a measure of good luck, you really have, being in the right place at the right time.
Patrick Stewart

I always thought the point was to have a bigger life, to meet more people. So I don't understand Hollywood.
Kathleen Turner

At the end. First start off and do your youth thing In Hollywood and then go to New York later. But it wound up being later, later than I thought it was going to be.
