Getting sober just exploded my life. Now I have a much clearer sense of myself and what I can and can't do. I am more successful than I have ever been. I feel very positive where I never did before, and I think that's all a direct result of getting sober.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I'm uninterested in superheroes. I am only interested in real stories, real people, real connection.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I think happiness comes from self-acceptance. We all try different things, and we find some comfortable sense of who we are. We look at our parents and learn and grow and move on. We change.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I've been going through photos of my mother, looking back on her life and trying to put it into context. Very few people age gracefully enough to be photographed through their aging.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I'm not a prophet. I'm not a teacher. I have no degrees. My degree is from the University of Life.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I never represented glam. That's the thing, you'll never see me in the front row of a fashion show. I'm uninterested in it. I find it trivial and banal and boring.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I've had a little plastic surgery. I've had a little lipo. I've had a little Botox. And you know what? None of it works. None of it.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I'm a human being who lives a flawed, contradictory life. And I have all sorts of problems and all sorts of successes.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I'm age-appropriate. I dress age-appropriately, I choose mates age-appropriately. I'm a big believer in people should act their age.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I used to dream of being normal. For me, if Kirk Douglas walked into the house, that was normal.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
All the work built my fame and certainly made me more money, but the toll it took in my home was not good.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
And I was ashamed of myself for feeling like I had to do that in order to look a certain way. I felt misshapen, just not natural anymore. And I think it was a big stimulator of my drug use.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
Being an actor, you are recognized for being somebody else, whereas these books are distilled from me.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
Hollywood is the backdrop of my family, and I know that the movie business is incredibly cruel as you get older.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I think I felt that I was very well known for my figure and needed to keep that up for my work. And I regret all of it. I felt fraudulent and very shameful.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I think my capacity to change has given me tremendous happiness, because who I am today I am completely content to be.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I try to go to the gym three times a week. And I have to watch what I eat. I'm a normal person.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I was doing a children's book on self-esteem, and I really felt like I wanted to shed the shame I'd been feeling - and maybe make it easier for women my age who had probably felt bad about themselves.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I work with The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University. I sit proudly as one of only two recovering addicts on their board.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I'm a layperson. I barely got out of high school. I have no business telling people what to do or my big philosophy on life. I'm certainly not going to write any sort of memoir.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I've been in showbusiness all my life, but as an actress I have never been overly driven.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
My marriage? Up to now everything's okay. But it's a real marriage - imperfect and very difficult. It's all about people evolving somewhat simultaneously through their lives. I think we've emotionally evolved.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
Now all of a sudden I'm so less interested in pretending to be a lot of other people, and much more interested in being me.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
So, am I friendly with my daughter and her friends? Yes. Am I their friend? No. Does she shut the door? Yes, and I very much support the shut door.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
The parameters are such that I don't get offered a lot of work. I'm sure most directors hear my list of don'ts and say forget it.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
Well, I could do it for a day, but I wouldn't want to be a teenager again. I really wouldn't.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
With short hair you have to get a haircut every two or three weeks. And if you're coloring your hair, you have to color it that often. Every time I did it, I felt fraudulent.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I attempted various types of plastic surgery, minutely but enough to stave off this encroaching middle-aged body. And every time I did, something went wrong. I felt misshapen, just not natural any more.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I'm going to look the way God intends me to look... with a little help from Manolo Blahnik.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I'm a performer. I've just been one since I was a little girl. I used to pretend all the time.
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I barely got out of high school, and I look back at my life often and go, 'Wow, this was awesome!'
Quote by -Jamie Lee
I've etched out who I am through myriad haircut attempts, outfit attempts, beauty attempts, diet attempts. It's been an evolution.
