Quotes·Quotations by Phoebe Cates

Celebrity

¶ I was only 17 when I did my nude scenes in Paradise (1982). They were serious and more difficult because they were not easily justified. But the topless scene in Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982) was funny, which made it easy.

¶ If the film, play or any project I`m involved in requires some sort of violence or nudity to advance the plot, scene or character in any way, then I would be considered unprofessional not to oblige. Of course, I want to make sure -- and I think I always have -- that the scenes are shot in good taste. I try to have some control; now that I know what I`m capable of including in a contract, I can continue that control. Nudity is not something I necessarily want to avoid and yet it`s not the most fun thing in the world to do. It`s part of the job as far as I`m concerned because you bare yourself emotionally and that`s just as terrifying as baring yourself physically. It`s all part of acting.

¶ In this business, if a girl wants a career, she has to be willing to strip. If you`ve got a good bod, then why not show it?

¶ Young people are more sophisticated today, thanks to magazines and movies and even porno cable television. As a New Yorker I think I`ve matured faster than other young people. I`m street smart.

Kid

¶ Kids today are much more independent than their parents were. We`re really into getting jobs and we mature sexually much earlier than a generation ago. Or, at least, we are involved in sex earlier.
