Oscar Quotes

I married first, won the Oscar before Olivia (sister Olivia de Havilland) did, and if I die first, she’ll undoubtedly be livid because I beat her to it! Picture Quote #1

I used to say that winning the Oscar means being back at the Beverly Hills Hotel at 1 A.M. feeling empty. It’s the industry voting. It doesn’t come from God. It doesn’t change your life, really Picture Quote #1

The guy who wins the Oscar for Best Actor has a much higher bar to clear than the woman who wins best actress Picture Quote #1

As an artist, I didn’t think I was gonna get an Oscar. I’ve never said this, but I’ve never looked at it like, We’re gonna win Best Supporting Actor Picture Quote #1

I want to be the best daughter, sister, friend and wife I can possibly be - because when I die, I am not going to be buried with my Oscar Picture Quote #1

Looking back now, thinking about that moment in the lights, with my heart pounding, Oscar in my hand, all I can say is I am grateful and humbled - still to this day. Next to marrying my husband and the birth of my children, it is one of the best days ever Picture Quote #1

Before Midnight is one of the years best movies. Full to the brim with humor, heartbreak, and ravishing romance. Richard Linklater directs with ardor and artistry. Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy shine brilliantly. Heads up, Oscar. This ones a keeper Picture Quote #1

Argo,’ ‘Lincoln,’ and ‘Zero Dark Thirty,’ three films honored with Best Picture Oscar nominations, lionize their Washington-anchored protagonists as crafty, competent, and virtually incorruptible Picture Quote #1

Winning an Oscar is an honor, but, between you and me, it does not makes things easier Picture Quote #1

The other puppeteers are really good, often when they are singing together, they go left, right, left... But if they are all moving to the left, I’m moving to the right. Big Bird and Oscar, that’s okay, because they are individuals anyway Picture Quote #1

I was asked to be on ‘The Colbert Report’ last year as Big Bird and Oscar. But when we got there, we discovered they wanted both characters on at the same time. Stephen Colbert didn’t know one man plays them both. We called Joey Mazzarino, our head writer, who’s a very good puppeteer as well. He agreed to zip over and do Oscar Picture Quote #1

When I’m lying drunk at an airport the press call me Irish... but when I win an Oscar, I’m classified as British Picture Quote #1

I was raised on the brothers Grimm, but my favorite fairy tales in the world are Oscar Wilde’s - ‘The Nightingale and the Rose,’ ‘The Selfish Giant.’ The latter is probably my all-time favorite Picture Quote #1

For me, a male image that I’m really moved by is somewhere between of Oscar Wilde type of a male: the fop, the long hair, the suits, too witty for his own good, incredibly smart, scathingly funny - all that. But then my other ideal is more like the Buddhist monk - the shaved head, actually someone who sublimates their sexuality Picture Quote #1

In the entertainment business, the biggest gift you could ever get is not an Oscar, it’s not a Grammy, it’s longevity Picture Quote #1

One of my favorite - well, my favorite, favorite, absolute favorite event to go to is Alfre Woodard has a party that I call the blacktress party. It’s, like, black actresses that either have been nominated for an Oscar or should have been, and it sort of is just a night where we all get in a room and we get to celebrate each other Picture Quote #1

There’s a lot of money in doing score music. You can get a chance to get nominated for an Oscar; I would love to get nominated again Picture Quote #1

I really don’t think that the Oscar changed my career much because I didn’t want it to Picture Quote #1

People believe in you more after you’ve won an Oscar, but it’s up to you what choices you make Picture Quote #1

How did the Oscar change my life? What it did was that it gave me a new reality. And it let me know that an award wasn’t going to change my life - that I had to be in control of changing my life Picture Quote #1

I feel that if you really want an Oscar, you’re in trouble. It’s like wanting to be married - you’ll take anybody. If you want the Oscar really badly, it becomes a naked desire and ambition. It becomes very unattractive Picture Quote #1

I’m definitely interested in taking on roles where I don’t look like myself. But I’m not saying I’m going to go out of my way to play a disabled person in order to win an Oscar Picture Quote #1

A year after winning the Oscar, almost to the day, I was directing a dog food commercial Picture Quote #1

I hope to God I don’t win an Oscar tomorrow night. It would really depress me if I did. I really don’t deserve it. It wasn’t that important a part anyhow Picture Quote #1

I went to drama school. I’m classically trained; I studied Shakespeare, blah blah blah. But I always preferred to do Oscar Wilde, or Shakespeare’s comedies over his dramas Picture Quote #1

I was essentially trained by Oscar Hammerstein to think of songs as one-act plays, to move a song from point A to point B dramatically Picture Quote #1

If they didn’t have an Oscar for people to shoot for, all they’d do is be making ‘Dumb And Dumber’ again and again Picture Quote #1

I love jeans and T-shirts, but for red carpets, I like Oscar de la Renta, who is timeless. Marchesa celebrates the female form in an ethereal way. Donna Karan does an Urban Zen collection, which is eco-friendly. I love socially conscious fashion Picture Quote #1

My eldest brother Atticus just won an Oscar some years ago, as he wrote the music for The Social Network Picture Quote #1

Oscar is the exact opposite of how I think you should behave. I just think of it as a negative view of the positive mind I have. Big Bird is sweet and nice and also sympathetic, as kids can identify with him even though he looks like such a bizarre character - great 8 feet 2 inches, a beak 18 inches long Picture Quote #1
