1. "I still think people will find out that I'm really not very talented. I'm really not very good. It's all just been a big sham."
2. "I act for free, but I demand a huge salary as compensation for all the annoyance of being a public personality. In that sense, I earn every dime I make."
3. "Ultimately, I believe the only secret to a happy marriage is choosing the right person. Life is a series of choices, right?"

5. "For me, getting comfortable with being famous was hard - that whole side of it, the loss of anonymity, the loss of privacy. Giving up that part of your life and not having control of it."http://www.quotelucy.com/quotes/michelle-pfeiffer-quotes-2.html
