More quotes by Debra Winger

  • "I happen to be interested in watching a face age. I like faces of women aging so it makes me personally quite sad. That's a beautiful gift from God. If people don't want to see that anymore then I won't be in anymore movies."

  • "Never say never, but the thought of electively cutting oneself is beyond my grasp, and I also object to it politically. Denying the lines on our faces makes a comment about age and wisdom I don't care to make."

  • "People pay to see movies with women looking beautiful, but I think there will be a place for me to play women looking my own age."

  • "There's a small club of women who are willing to age."

  • "I hope to find the roles that are age appropriate but not yearning to be younger, or parenting ad nauseam."
