“I’m a character actress, plain and simple...Who can worry about a career? Have a life. Movie stars have careers - actors work, and then they don’t work, and then they work again.” - Frances McDormand

Fame can be just so annoying because people are so critical of you. You can’t just say “hi”. You say hi and people whisper “Man, did you see the way she said Hi. What an attitude.” - Juliette Lewis

“I was always brought up to say please and thank you and always tell the truth, and people were saying, “Oh my God, what’s going to happen with your character next year [on Prison Break (2005)]?’ and I wasn’t allowed to say, so I felt really guilty because I was lying to all these people, including my neighbors.” - Robin Tunney

The all time greatest western star turns 94! ❤️
