The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Holly Hunter

  • I’m from Oklahoma City, and there’s a statue across from the site of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building of Jesus. It’s called ‘Jesus Wept.’ And I love this statue because it’s a statue of Jesus with his head in his hand. And his sadness and his pain at some of the choices that are made here – that just breaks his heart.
  • I get cold really quickly, but I don’t care. I like weather. I never understand why people move someplace so that they can avoid weather.
  • Good female parts are hard to come by, so I go all over the place to find them: cable TV, network movies of the week, foreign films, independent American films, studio films, the stage.
  • I’m almost 60. I’ve been doing this for a while. In order to do this for that long, you have to make decisions based on lots and lots of different criteria, you know. I mean, the criteria has to shift, especially if you’re an actress.
  • I’m not a great Maureen Dowd fan, because I really find her poisonous, on the record.
  • I was born and raised on a farm, where boys had chores and girls did not, i.e., drive tractors, bale hay, take care of cattle.
  • People don’t come to New York out of resignation. They come here with a dream. Mine was to be an actress.
  • Privacy is paradise.
  • I heckled somebody at the U.S. Open once. And you know, tennis, it’s not a good place for that.
  • I heckled somebody at the U.S. Open once.
