In our world of sleek flesh and collagen, Botox and liposuction, what we most fear is the dissolution of the body-mind, the death of the brain.
A. S. Byatt
I never want to be in that stage where a band ends up playing state fairs and casinos. I am not willing to go out shooting up Botox and eating corn dogs while judging pig contests.
Al Jourgensen
Of course, like any woman, I look in the mirror and think, 'Oh, wouldn't I look better with a bit of Botox?' But you've got to find comfort in your own skin. I've watched women stretch themselves year after year until their faces are no longer recognisable.
Amanda Donohoe
A West Virginia 10 is a California 4. Or at least that's what legend tells us: The Legend of Dr. Feelgood. Plastic surgery has a permanent home here, which is why Nancy Pelosi loves our Botoxed beaches. Beverly Hills looks like a moving Madame Tussauds.
Ben Shapiro
Instead of eating, I do Botox. I have about 1,100 pounds of Botox all over my body. It's a body Botox and if it ever cracks, I'm in trouble.
Bob Einstein
Thank God for Botox.
Bonnie Tyler
I've definitely over-filled and I've definitely had some bad Botox where your eyes drop but, y'know, there's no shame in my game.
Brandi Glanville
Yeah, tons... fillers and botox and I've definitely made some mistakes but it's hard to watch yourself get older on television.
I've done little bits of Botox for a long time. If I wasn't on TV, I probably wouldn't.
Brooke Burke
I don't like Botox. It makes a very strange forehead.
Carine Roitfeld
I tried Botox, but I don't want to be hooked on that stuff.
Cherie Lunghi
I didn't get attached to Botox. It is costly, and you have to remember to keep doing it.
I had a go with Botox but looked both scared and surprised at the same time. I don't like to be either.
Claudia Winkleman
You see these actresses who have had Botox or something else done, and it takes you out of the film.
Clive Owen
Botox? I think it's fantastic and also horrible.
Courteney Cox
Sometimes I use Botox. Compared to most, I use it very sparingly. One time I did too much, though. I feel weird if I can't move my face, and that one time I overdid it, I felt trapped in my own skin.
My hope is that if I take good care of my skin and use Botox, I won't have to use anything else.
Courtney Thorne-Smith
I don't want to be 45 competing with 20-year-olds, running to go get Botox. I want to be an expressive actor hired for the age that I am, portraying women who are my age: 40. I'm just hoping I can find some of those roles to play. Otherwise, I have to find something else.
Debi Mazar
I did have a go with Botox, but I couldn't move my eyebrows. I also, at one point, had that filler stuff injected, but I looked like a hamster with wodges of food in its cheeks, so I stopped that.
Deborah Moggach
I think when it comes to Botox and surgery, actresses should do it or not do it, but be honest about their choices.
Debra Winger
I obviously don't feel under pressure to look young, because I have had no Botox or surgery. I don't judge people who choose to have it, but I don't want to erase who I am.
People say I look so happy - and I say, 'That's the Botox.'
Thanks to Botox and fillers, as well as the work that I've already had, my face pretty much maintains itself.
I tried Botox once. Never again. It made my forehead freeze.
Like the diminishing beauty returns for a facially paralyzed Botox addict, the more forcefully we attempt to stop the passage of time, the less available we are to the very moment we seek to preserve.
In L.A., you see a lot of women who get into these trends for inner happiness while putting most of their energy into looking younger. It's Botox on Tuesday, laser on Wednesday, some weird juice cleanse having nothing to do with health and everything to do with losing weight the next day.
In this business actors who have Botox or surgery make you very aware of age. It's awful.
I think women in Hollywood who don't do Botox and plastic surgery are revered. I revere them... My plan is to never go there. I'm too vain to get plastic surgery because I don't like how it looks, and I want to look my best.
I haven't done fillers or Botox for ages. There comes a point where you have to match bits of you with the other bits; otherwise, you get a terribly random situation.
I haven't done Botox. Although there are a few women on screen who do, and if you don't do it, which I don't, you look pretty rough by comparison.
If you choose to be Frankenstein with Botox and plastic surgery, you've bought your own private mask.
I love my grey hair and wrinkles. I love the fact that my face has more of an edge and more character than it did when I was in my twenties and thirties. No Botox for me.
I keep thinking: 'Georgia O'Keeffe wouldn't have had Botox.'
Funny enough, if you are looking at people these days who are putting Botox in their face and getting all sorts of plastic surgery, we look at them and go, I can tell you've had Botox. I can tell you've had plastic surgery. You look really strange to me. But no one's saying anything. We're just accepting the fact that they're strange-looking.
I'll take my wrinkles. I don't like the Botox thing.
Because I am married to a surgeon, I do Botox and I do some fillers. But I truly believe that the best beauty secret is happiness. I know that sounds sappy, but I'm just telling you it comes from the inside and spreads out. The happier and more satisfied you are living your life, the better you will look.
No Botox. I don't think I will go there. I don't want to say never, because who knows? Maybe in 10 years I will.
I get Botox and fillers; I don't think there's anything wrong with it.
You read about poor people having Botox go wrong and you think: 'Well, what the bloody hell were you doing?' Why would you inject yourself with poison? And why are we spending so much time looking at ourselves? I just don't get it.
I'm not interested in Botox or getting a facelift. There comes a point where you have to let go and accept that you are no longer the youngest and that you have other things to offer.
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.
I hope I never become that person who is all about getting Botox.
I think the good thing about my face is it has always been expressive. With Botox that goes - not what you want as an actress.
A lot of actresses I've worked with recently have done so much Botox their faces don't look real anymore. If you freeze everything on your face, you can't emote.
You know, I've had Botox. The woman who does it is very good, obviously. Very conservative.
Every six months I fly to Dallas to get botox and I also get collagen injections.
I was the first to sign up for Botox when it first came out.
I've never had Botox. But I like people to imagine I have.
I see pictures of myself BB - before Botox - and I see the ones after and I am happy. I am on television 1,500 times a year and it is a very small way, and a safe way, of looking a little bit better than I used to.
Botox, I think, is poison, I would never put it into my face, and I'm needle-phobic. I spend a lot of time keeping my face out of the sun and taking care of my skin and wearing make-up.
