Jennifer Aniston quotes: actress and film producer shares words on relationships, working hard, pushing forward, livin’ life.
“What inspires you, what excites you when you wake up in the morning?”

“Life is about making mistakes. Death is about wishing you made more.”
“People who avoid the brick walls – all power to ya, but we all have to hit them sometimes in order to push through to the next level, to evolve.”
“I support women, men, anybody who is in a place that’s not their strongest and who is ready to push forward.”
“You just have to work really hard to tune out the noise and the static. Because it gets louder, and people really have an opinion, and you don’t want to shy away from taking chances for fear of what people will say, or living in the wreckage of the future of what may be if I do this.”
“I love the unknown. I love the discovery of what will be happening and just kind of sitting back and not knowing.”

“I just want to keep trying to surprise myself and I want to keep challenging myself.”
“I think you miss out on a lot of stuff when you’re so protected and isolated.”
“I think we have to change our perspective. I don’t think life stops after 50 – if anything, it gets more and more exciting. For some reason, we don’t honor or pay respect to aging. It’s something that we look at as a negative, and yet every single person on this planet does it. I don’t understand why it’s not something that’s celebrated, why there’s some sort of an expiration date on who you are as a person worth watching and a story being told about you. It makes absolutely no sense.”
“It’s all about being comfortable, being easy and having you be able to wear something and not having it wear you. It’s classic. Every time I’ve tried to be bold and crazy, I feel like a Japanese animated cartoon character.”

“As women, we do feel like we have to live up to an expectation, whether it’s on camera or going to the market or whatever it is. And the truth of the matter is, that’s not always the way it is. We don’t always have our high heels on, we don’t always have our makeup on.”
“Women are realizing it more and more knowing that they don’t have to settle with a man just to have that child. Times have changed and that is also what is amazing is that we do have so many options these days.”
“The women that inspire me are the ones who have careers and children; why would I want to limit myself? I’ve always wanted to have children, and I would never give up that experience for a career. I want to have it all.”
“I remember being seven and asking my mom if I was as pretty as Monique (my best friend in grade school). And with all the love in the world, my mom looked at me and said, ‘Oh, honey, you’re so funny.’ So, she doesn’t lie to me… she answers the question by not answering and instead tells me what she thinks is my greatest strength.”
“Thirties. Go to therapy. Clean up all of the sh*t. Clean up all of the toxins and the noise. Understand who you are. Educate yourself on the self.”
“Being this side of 40 feels like what I should have felt being this side of 25: in my body, in my heart, happy with my life, and okay with whatever bumps in the road present themselves.”

“What I look for is a man who can be a friend, someone who is an equal and one with whom I feel comfortable. I want to be happy and loved, and not settling for something second best and less than I deserve. But a relationship of and by itself is not what is going to make this gal survive – a relationship is the cherry on the top of the cake.”
“Most of us fall in love with someone’s persona and spend the next three to five years discovering who that person really is. If you can stay connected through that process of raw vulnerability, I think you have a shot at the prize of knowing and accepting another human being for who and what they really are after years of highs and lows.”

“I’ve never sat there and plotted out how I was going to become successful or famous.”
“I spent my first paycheck on a vintage Mercedes.”
“You have to be really comfortable in your skin. You have to start with being in love with who you are, who you’ve become.”
“You can undo a lot of things. If you’re not happy, you can become happy. Happiness is a choice. That’s the thing I really feel.”
“Am I lonely? Yes. Am I upset? Yes. Am I confused? Yes. Do I have my days when I’ve thrown a little pity party for myself? Absolutely. But I’m also doing really well. I’d be a robot if I said I didn’t feel moments of anger, of hurt, of embarrassment… but you joke and say, ‘What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.'”
“I’m really happy. Really! I think people honestly just want to see me as a mum and married and barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen. And I just want to say, ‘Everybody, relax! It’s going to happen.'”

“I wouldn’t change my childhood, I wouldn’t change my heartaches, I wouldn’t change my successes… I really love who I am.”
