Here's the thing with the business, is that when people like your work, and you make them money, you're set. When the critics like you, and you make the studios money, doors opened.
Andie MacDowell -
I think sometimes we seem to obsess on negativity.

Everybody perceives me because of my career that I'm a movie star, or I'm this model, but I'm still the same person I was when I was a little girl.

In 1984, I starred in 'Greystoke: The Legend Of Tarzan,' my first movie. My lines ended up being dubbed by Glenn Close, supposedly because my accent was 'too southern'. It was completely humiliating at the time. I became a laughing stock. I'm amazed that I managed to pick myself up and dust myself off.
Andie MacDowell -
I don't go to enough movies.

I think every time in your life is valuable, and you need to exist in that moment. Because if you don't - you lose it.
Andie MacDowell -
I've had some really big hits with 'Groundhog Day' and 'Michael,' 'Multiplicity,' 'Four Weddings and a Funeral.'
Andie MacDowell -
I realize that I'm in the top one percent of the world. I've traveled a lot. I've seen immense poverty in the world, and I can't live with everything I've had and be comfortable with everything I have unless I do something for the rest of the world.

My high school experience was kind of like 'Mean Girls.' It was very much like a bad B movie. 'This is where the jocks sit, and this is where the cheerleaders sit.' And I never really fit in. I guess I was sort of a theatre geek, but the activity that I was most invested in was speech and debate.
Andie MacDowell -
Do I really need to prove anything to anybody? I don't feel that I have to prove anything. The only thing that I have to prove is to myself, that I have value.
Andie MacDowell -
I've always been a very active person.

The thing is, we live in a contemporary world, and being able to make yourself the best person you can possible be can be difficult. But as long as you're trying to figure it out, and you're really looking in the right direction, everything's going to be all right.
Andie MacDowell -
I was six when my parents divorced, and that was tough for me.

I've heard that George Clooney did something like nine pilots before 'ER' was picked up, way back when he was doing TV. It's just the way the business works. There are a lot of pilots that we've never seen. It's protocol.

I was from a little rinky-dink town - to be a model... it looked like a lot of fun. I'd look at the girls, and they always looked happy.
Andie MacDowell -
I remember what I was like as a teenager, with an enormous amount of energy and hormones. You have to be able to release it, and dancing is really an innocent way.
Andie MacDowell -
I'm sorry, but in my generation and where I came from, only sailors got tattoos. Not ladies.
Andie MacDowell -
When you are authentic, you create a certain energy... people want to be around you because you are unique.
Andie MacDowell -
With all that's going on in our lives and the world, reducing stress is important, and it's a factor in heart health.
Andie MacDowell -
I eat an enormous amount of fruits and vegetables.

We don't need any more reality TV, women yelling at each other. I can't watch that stuff.
Andie MacDowell -
The problem with my mother is that she didn't go to the doctor. And I think by the time she started to show symptoms that something might not be right, and finally went to the doctor, she was so close to her death that she couldn't get the care she had needed. Her big issue was not going to the doctor.
Andie MacDowell -
I'm not aiming for an Academy Award.

I love being an advocate for women as we get older so that we can feel comfortable with ourselves.
