Good films and good performances will help you go further in your career. You can't get too far by just choosing leading lady roles.

Parineeti Chopra

My favourite performances are by actresses like Bette Davis in 'All About Eve' or Gena Rowlands in pretty much anything - performances that have nothing to do with age.

Winona Ryder

We're in crisis mode as black actresses. It's not only in the sheer number of roles that are offered and that are out there, but the quality of the roles. The quality - and therein lies the problem. We're in deprivation mode because me, Alfre and Phylicia, we're in the same category. Whereas if you take a Caucasian actress, you have the one who are the teens, in their 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s - they're all different. There are roles for each of them. But you only have two or three categories for black actresses.

Viola Davis

There aren't enough meaty roles for actresses. Also, most actresses aren't ready to take risks.

Urmila Matondkar

There are so many talented actresses in Korea right now, but they're not seen because there aren't roles in which they can show their talents.

Song Hye-kyo

Yes, Adam Sandler is a good kisser, and other actresses have said the same thing to me. They've come up to me - other actresses who've kissed him - and said, 'Hey, so good, right?'

Brooklyn Decker

People often ask me why I don't take up more heroine-oriented roles. My question is, 'Where are these roles?' I really appreciate actresses who sign only films with meaty roles. However, there aren't too many of them. The industry is simply male-dominated.

Samantha Akkineni

I still feel, when I meet actresses, no matter how high-profile they are, that they are starved for good roles.

Susanna Fogel

People assume actresses are afraid to get older; the truth is the roles get a whole lot more compelling once you're too old to play dumb.

Olivia Wilde

I wanted to start with a very small role, to get my feet wet. I'm sure I'm not as good or as experienced as other actresses, but everybody has to start somewhere.

Claudia Schiffer

I think I just do what I feel is good to do. Everybody can give me their suggestions, but at the end, the final risk is mine because it's my name on the magazine. So I only do what I really feel. Everybody tries to influence you, of course: "Oh, this is the right moment to do this" and "This is the right photographer to choose," and "This is the right model to have . . ." I listen, but I must go my own way. When you take risks, it means that you know every month people are there to judge you.

Franca Sozzani

Really good leading roles are few and far between, and there is so much competition because there are so many fantastic actresses in this country.

Georgina Campbell

I'd love to be remembered as a character actor who brought illumination to roles in wonderful plays and who delivered performances that made people think and rethink those roles.

David Suchet

This film [ Into the Forest], it was special for that reason, because as an actress, you usually don't get to work with other actresses because you are usually up for the same roles, and you don't get to hang out that much.

Evan Rachel Wood

Every time there's a really good story, there's women in it. We may not get as many roles, but the roles we get are really good, I think, for the most part.
