Courteney Cox Quotes - Page 3

I would like to do a movie where the moments could be extended and you could have the freedom of that, but I'm not precious, if it moves the story and doesn't take away from it.

I don't find the whole cougar word that offensive.

I don't think I'm too thin at all. I understand when people say, 'Well your face gets gaunt,' but to get your bottom half to be the right size, your face might have to be a little gaunt. You choose your battles.

So many people have so much trouble having kids.

I think it's hard, the fact that there's a certain age that we can't have kids anymore.

I just am a snob when it comes to humor.

I'm not a huge fan of romantic comedies - my taste goes much more to the offbeat and dark. I'd love to sink my teeth into something like Fargo.

I'm much more of a realist. I'm really practical. I'm the kind of person that calls my business manager and says, OK, if it were all to end today, how many months do I have to live?

When I was a kid I didn't feel like I fit in because - this is really silly and I probably shouldn't say it, but, I didn't think anything was funny. So I used to go home and literally cry to my mom and my step-dad at the time and I didn't think anything was funny. I couldn't laugh.

At one point my dad called me and said, 'You have always been a great salesman. I think it's time you come home and sell swimming pools.'

If I like myself at this weight, then this is what I'm going to be. I don't have an eating disorder.

I get pregnant pretty easily, but I have a hard time keeping them.

Botox? I think it's fantastic and also horrible.

I think I look very healthy. You've already seen what I've eaten, so I couldn't be anorexic, and I wouldn't throw up if you paid me $1,000, so I'm not bulimic. Okay, for $1,000 I would stick my finger down my throat, but throwing up is the worst thing in the world.

I'm not comfortable leaving my house. If someone invites me over, I would go but it's not like I'm one to say, 'Hey, let's hang out at your house tonight.'

One trick I swear by: I pour a little neroli or lavender oil onto a hot towel and use it to wipe off my makeup. It opens up my pores, and then my face cream sinks in better.

I have a lot of glass in my house, and I remember saying as a joke once that I clean my stuff with Windex while my friends are over, but then I found myself actually doing that the other day. It's horrible.

A lot of my humor does come from anger. It's like, you're not gonna pull one over on me - which is pretty much my motto anyways.

I'm kind of all over the place, and I need grounding.

You know that you're going to invest so much of your time on a movie when you direct it that it's something that just really has to jump out at you and pull at your heart, and nothing has.

Coco is the greatest part of my life. I love everything about being a mom, but our talks and walks on the beach are my favorite moments.

I'm a real people person and I'm very sensitive, and I've just noticed how other actors that I've worked with, as an actor, take direction from people.

I want to change a lot.

Happy Memorial Day! Thank you to all our service men and women past and present. You are not forgotten!

I feel weird if I can't move my face, and that one time I overdid it, I felt trapped in my own skin.
