Faye Dunaway Quotes

• Between two evils, I always choose the one I never tried before.

• Do you know what I'm working on now? My first feature as a director.

• God bless McNally, it's got some fantastic stuff in it, but it's no easy task to make a movie out of.

• He became one of the greatest artists that will ever be. Ever, ever.

• I called her because I wanted it to be modeled a little bit after her because she's such a charismatic person in the field, ... You know, this great-looking woman with lots of blonde hair who really made a big success out of almost anything she's attempted to do.

• I just go to movies, or see my son, Liam. He's 23 and he's got to find his own way, but I try to be there and give him guidance.

• I mean, I was always interested in people like Lenny Bruce, people who are breaking the old rules and making new ones.

• I often say the last role I played that really touched me and where I was able to access what I really am was Bonnie, which is kind of sad when you think how early in my career that was.

• I still have, I hope, a lot of years and there are still a lot of things I want to do.

• I'm still the little southern girl from the wrong side of the tracks who really didn't feel like she belonged.

• It's interesting as one grows older to keep in touch with the cutting edge.

• It's true, I did a lot of great movies, and I'm happy. It was what it was, and now I think all of that has fed into where I am now, and I think it has taught me a lot.

• I've been working on this feature script for Master Class, a play by Terrence McNally that won a lot of Tonys.

• My mother's passion for something more, to write a different destiny for a dirt-poor farmer's daughter, was to shape my entire life.

• Since Star Wars, that film's success led to bigger budgets, more hardware, that the great movies like the ones I did, which were studio movies, are now independent movies. They range from half a million to several million, and a lot of those have very interesting roles.

• So Liam and movies are obviously big passions, and I read and write.

• So many people are called but few serve as actors, you know what I mean?

• The whole era when I was busy being a big movie star was terribly disconcerting. I was cared for and cosseted, and yet I was totally dependent.

• Well, softness and femininity like yours people don't expect of me; so when they find me emotional and capable of real vulnerability, they're surprised.

• When you're younger they always try to get you to do every ninny role that's going.

• Years are not important, my dear.

• You are an athlete when you're onstage. You can't get tired.

• You just sort of let them go for a while, but it was time to have something done to my teeth. I'm glad. It's going to be good. Tom Cruise has braces now, too. I'm right in style.
