This woman is beautiful and clever: but how much cleverer she would have become if she were not beautiful!
When you have a cute outfit on and your makeup looks amazing, the first thing people comment on is your image. When you don't wear makeup, you hear things like, 'Oh wow, you look tired,' or, 'You're so brave for not wearing makeup!'
I was fortunately always offered jobs because I was so pretty. Women used to complain about it!
Familiarity is a magician that is cruel to beauty but kind to ugliness.
Being an ugly woman is like being a man. You're gonna have to work. Yep.
I don't think it's fair for people to put fellow beings down just because they're only known for their looks.
I feel fortunate that I'm not a beauty. I'm not a classic beauty. I feel it is harder for girls who are like that. There are fewer parts.
I realized that everyone was only complimenting me for the way I looked. More than my voice, people focused on how pretty I am.
...she is too beautiful, I think, to not be inherently evil.
Beautiful women get in Hollywood's door quickest and then are shut out when their beauty no longer measures up to whatever it is that Hollywood or audiences decide is beautiful enough; once they're inside, their choices are limited by the same beauty that won them their entree.
There's this unbelievable bias and prejudice against quote-unquote good-looking people, that they can't be in pain or they can't have rough lives or be deep or interesting.
I was never a feminist because I was never ugly enough for that.
Beautiful people are forgiven more often than the rest.
I've gotten work based on how I look, and I've not gotten work based on how I look. It's all good.
I have never been called too pretty for anything. That would be a problem I could get used to.
A beautiful woman must expect to be more accountable for her steps, than one less attractive.
We assume that good-looking people are smarter and more effective than they really are, and that homely people are the reverse.
The stars of yesteryears are the grandmothers of today, so why would they cast a Suhasini Mulay, when they can cast a Hema Malini?
I hate high fashion. I hate that we reward people for being genetic freaks. You hear the guys announcing the runway shows saying, 'A pretty face is your best asset this season.' And what? Ugly girls had a free ride last year?
Life is a little easier for attractive people. Think about it: if a stranger smiles at you and they’re attractive, you think, ‘Oh, they’re nice,’ but if a stranger’s ugly, you’re like, ‘What do they want? Get away from me, weirdo.
When you're good-looking, I think you usually don't have to work as hard.
When someone is beautiful, that gives people an excuse to go out of their way to be mean, as if someone who's beautiful isn't really deep, doesn't really hurt and isn't really a human being.
Beauty judgements are many and while we think that light skin women have no judgements to deal with. There is this filmmaker I love and respect and I really wanted to work with, once told me 'You are too fair to be in my movies.' And then I have also heard 'You are too pretty to play this part.'
I would hate to have gone through life as a beautiful woman because they all too often get discounted.
Women's currency is their looks. Like it or not, the most powerful woman is an 18-year-old woman.
