Holly Hunter

“I'm not that big a fan of marriage... as an institution. And I don't know why women need to have children to be seen as complete human beings.”

“I think it's a gift to be an actor, and I have a real passion for it.”

“I have no desire to be a star.”

“I don't mind being a professional. I don't mind working and I don't mind being paid for it.”

“It's always been about trying to do work that I'm proud of.”

“I think that my career has been a series of chapters.”

“I don't think of myself as a southern woman. I think of myself as a woman.”

“I like being a character actor. I like to do what I want to do.”

“For me, the most important thing is the story. Not the script, but the story.”

“The thing that I'm most interested in is the protection of children.”
