Kim Basinger's quotes

I work in a strange business, and trust is a word that's not even in the vocabulary.
I think any girl who comes to Hollywood with sex symbol or bombshell hanging over her has a rough road.
I feel there are two people inside me - me and my intuition. If I go against her, she'll screw me every time, and if I follow her, we get along quite nicely.
You have to be a little unreal to be in this business.
[on kissing in the movies] There's an absolute art to it. You have to think it's as good as what's coming later.
[on performing in the nude] I thoroughly enjoy it, actually.
I don't really live in a time zone. I don't abide by the rules here on earth.
A lot of women are intrigued by a man who doesn't do the normal things a man would do. It makes them think from different parts of their body. Sexually, emotionally, they just go someplace else.
Physically, I was always so uninhibited. As a gymnast and diver, I was confident about my body. Just let me keep my mouth shut. I had a lot of problems and I never opened my mouth. People thought I was bitchy or stuck-up. But really I was petrified.
Believe me, I'm no Mother Teresa. I've done a lot of wild ass things in my life. It's just that I can be wild without drugs or alcohol. And so can anybody.
I became an actress in my own eyes in 9Â½ Weeks (1986). I did what I wanted to do emotionally. I built myself up and tore myself down so many times that I was electrically disturbed after it was over; marbles were rolling off the table.
I really want what I want. And - you know - I'm getting what I want! It's that simple.
Let's face it, we all got big egos. And we need to have 'em fed.
There's so much said about people and so much of it is bullshit. Sometimes there will be a writer who has written something so outrageous that I want to hire him for my production company, because his imagination has to be dealt with.
I have great respect for every part of the body, believe me!
The truth about beauty is if you always have it, you always know it. I know people are attracted to me. It's just there. But, Jesus, if you are going to take the package, take the whole package.
When I see need, I understand it. Whether it's emotional or physical or mental need, we all need. Not that we necessarily have to stand for being needy.
I love men. And I love sex. It's very important to me--the romance part and everything else. You can have wild and nasty, wonderful, crazy sex, and you can be romantic too, all in one. You can have the whole package, man. You have have anything you want!
Love scenes are the pits. You're sweating like a pig, asking for water. Baby oil is all over everything. I mean, does that sound romantic?
With every project I've ever done, I've always treated it like I'm still in school. Each time you try to go a little further, get a little deeper, feel a little more, sculpt it a little better.
Women are important, and they have to be in the movies. So, what are you going to do? All we have to do is all hold our hands and stand up and say "No." We can stop having babies, we can stop having sex, everything. And then women will rule the world.
I never had to be a waitress. I never had to do a job that I really didn't wanna do.
The highest compliment a performer can receive is when someone stops you and says, 'You were so real.' That's what I'm after now. I want to hear those words a lot.
[on playing a nymphomaniac in The Man Who Loved Women (1983)] Getting into character was easy. I simply thought about sex all the time. I thought about where we could do it and how. I scared myself. 'Kim,' I said, 'You'll be OK.'
[on Final Analysis (1992)] I was in my own world for that film. I never saw it.
[on Vincent Perez] He's a marvelous actor. And for the ladies: he IS that good-looking in real life, ok! Ok?
You really have to be an observer to be a good actor. I feel that. If only a lot of actors would only shut up for a little while and watch what's going on around them, they'd be a lot better off.
I don't care about embarrassing myself. I don't censor myself. That's stupid. You have to censor certain things, of course, but everybody does too much of it. It's a lie. It's one giant lie.
I'm extremely competitive with myself. But I'm not actively competitive with other women in the business. Which may have been a mistake. I've never had someone in my life, agent or otherwise, fighting for me.
I never related to dolls or playing nurse. If somebody gave me a doll I'd paint its fingernails and cut its hair.
[recalling her early days as a model] I'd come in weighing 115 pounds, and I'm 5'7Â½" tall and I'd be told I was 10 pounds too heavy! And I still wasn't eating a damn thing!
I don't want to be anybody else. I like being Kim Basinger, and I want to be her for the rest of my life.
[on her role in Fifty Shades Darker (2017)] My character Elena is the woman who came into power early. I know this character. I don't have to read the books, I feel her.
Everyone loves a winner; it validates you to a society that gives you all those ribbons and awards. But success is like wildfire: they throw a little of it your way ...
[on Burt Reynolds] There is another side that people don't know about Burt, and it's a very sensitive side - very serious, sensitive, hurtable, vulnerable.
Sitting at home in this town with nothing to do can make you suicidal. You need to call on all your stick-to-it-iveness, your spirits and tenacity.
[asked how she looks so young] I never laugh and I never cry.
Time should change traditions.
I never stay in character--once the director says "cut," I'm outta there.
[on Blind Date (1987)] It's amazing that that film comes back to me as one of people's favorite as far as rentals.
[on The Real McCoy (1993)] This film was originally a love story that turned into a caper movie. I blame myself in part for this. I fought to get Val Kilmer in the movie, but he just wasn't into it. It just fell apart.
If I'm interested in something and there is fear involved, I will do it.
What I have learned about children is that they are our greatest teachers. You are in their classroom. If you miss out on that, then you have missed out on a full ride.
I don't have a radical or aggressive nature. I just arm myself with the truth and a prayer and go forth. Never have I ever jumped on a bandwagon because it was the "in" thing to do or for self-gain.
