Paula Patton Quotes

1. I think the age we're living in is starting to get scary.

2. (about her singing) I love to sing, but I have no talent. I'm not Beyonce. I'm not even Milli Vanilli.

3. As a little girl I always dreamed of having a cosmetics contract, which was the cherry on top of "making it" in my opinion.

4. The older I get, the more I accept and appreciate myself.





5. I try not to have too many opinions; I just marvel at the world we live in.

6. A movie is painting, it's photography, it's literature - because you have to have the screenplay - it's music. Put a different soundtrack to a comedy and it's a tragedy. A movie combines all those forms and forces you to pay attention for two hours with a group of people.

7. Becoming a mother is the best thing that's happened to me.



8. I really do think that all of us are beautiful when we're happy and in love. I know it's cheesy but it's true.

9. I still get butterflies before having the first day of a movie.

10. First off let me say, I've wanted to be an actress since I was a little girl.

11. If you have the capacity to love, you have the capacity to love anyone.

12. I love cola.

13. (about the anxiety of doing a love scene) Well you always joke. There's that countdown to the sex scene. Like: "Okay, five days until sex scene. No more carbs."


14. If you're an actress and even one person knows your name, you're lucky.

15. Unfortunately, I sound like a frog. I love to sing, though! I mean, I love to sing in the shower, in the car. But I just wasn't gifted with that talent.

16. I find (the term biracial) offensive. It's a way for people to separate themselves from African-Americans…a way of saying: "I'm better than that." I'm black because that's the way the world sees me. People aren't calling Barack Obama biracial. Most people think there's a black president…People judged me because I was light-skinned. (They'd assume) I didn't want to be part of the black race.


17. Making African American films are hard in Hollywood. We need to rely on a support network and bring more cohesion to different filmmakers, actors, producers etc. It's a very difficult business. There aren't a lot of Africans Americans or people of color in high positions in Hollywood that we can green-light films.

18. (about handling a gun) I liked the feeling of power, the adrenaline rush.



19. Sometimes I do yoga, sometimes it's kickboxing, sometimes it's weight training, sometimes it's pilates.
