Going to school, sort of not realising that caring about things was going to make me stand out and make me weird, and I think also being a redhead and being tall, bigger than the other kids... Anything that makes you different at school makes you a target.

I get hit on so much it's not normal. I didn't realize so many men liked redheads.

When I was a kid, my dream was to be a farmer and marry Charlie Brown. I wanted to rescue him and make him happy. Besides, he was always lusting after the little redhead girl.

Redheads get so stereotyped. You're either exotic and wild or totally Victorian.

Alicia Witt

You Wild Victorian

Sadly, I'm not a natural redhead. But, I prefer my red hair to my blonde hair.

Amybeth McNulty

Sad T Sadly

It would be fun to be a redhead... you can get away with being, like, really volatile and fire-y because you're like, 'I'm just a redhead; what can I say?'

Anna Kendrick

You Would Wit

I like to look put together without trying too hard. I don't want to look as if God's made another rainbow - I prefer muted, autumnal colours, like most fading redheads.

Anne Robinson

I'm ready to be an action figure. I'd love that very much. And all the redheaded kids will get to go out and feel loved and be able to buy a redheaded action figure.

Redheads have a lightness, a craziness, a kookiness. Think of Lucille Ball.

Chita Rivera

People were making fun of redheads before I came along.

I am not a redhead, I'm a blonde.

Cynthia Nixon

T Redhead Red

The recognition factor is so much higher when I'm a redhead, so when I'm a blonde I can pass under the radar a lot more easily.

UN T Redhead

In England we burnt redheads at the stake, because we thought they were witches. There are still young redheads in Britain getting ripped for having red hair. 'Oy, Ginger!'

In 1977, while I was performing in a play in Cardiff, a friend introduced me to a striking redhead called Myfanwy Talog, famed for her appearances on Welsh television with the comedy duo Rees and Ronnie. We were instantly smitten and eventually moved in together, sharing 18 happy years.

Quick. Name ten dead redheads.

I really love being a redhead. Even though it's not my natural colour, it makes me feel more like myself.

Eleanor Tomlinson

Love Though Thou

I think I should have been born a redhead. It goes with my personality - I'm fiery, and it's kind of quirky, like me.

Ellie Bamber

Darcy, the heroine of 'Something Blue,' is quite shallow and opinionated. At one point, she commented that she dislikes 'gingers,' i.e., men with red hair. I received several emails from fiery redheads who said they were offended by 'my' comments. I had to remind them that it is fiction.

Going to school, sort of not realising that caring about things was going to make me stand out and make me weird, and I think also being a redhead and being tall, bigger than the other kids... Anything that makes you different at school makes you a target.

I wasn't born a redhead, but I was born to be a redhead.

I wrote 'Ain't It Cool? Hollywood's Redheaded Stepchild Speaks Out,' because in doing hundreds and hundreds of interviews over the past six and a half years, I was tired of the story being half told or a third told or erroneously told.

Children tease each other because you're short or you're tall or you're a redhead or because you're ugly or because you're smart or because you're dumb or all kinds of differences and as parents we have to deal with that and strengthen our children to be comfortable with themselves and also to show empathy and acceptance towards others.

Heather Wilson

When you're younger, being a redhead is... Well, my two brothers teased me no end.

Isla Fisher

You can sleep with a blonde, you can sleep with a brunette, but you'll never get any sleep with a redhead!

Jamie Luner

My mum taught me that redheads shouldn't wear pink, red or orange, but if you choose the right shade, such as a bright orange or a cherry red, it can look fabulous.

Jane Asher

I'm not a natural redhead, but I enjoy having red hair.

Jane Levy

I get a little freaked out when I'm around too many redheads. I only have about one or two red-haired friends, and when a bunch of us get together, I feel like there's going to be a fight that breaks out or something.

Jesse Plemons

I'm a wannabe redhead, definitely wannabe Julianne Moore or Jessica Chastain redhead. But I love being a brunette.

Karla Souza

Deep in my soul, I'm secretly a redhead.

Karren Brady

I'm stronger and sassier as a redhead.

Kate Walsh

Indeed, throughout much of history and in many cultures, redheads have been viewed with suspicion and fear - and even killed - because of their hair.

Kate Williams

Eighteenth-century matrons would have never have dreamed of appointing a redhaired wet nurse for their precious offspring - redheads passed on their horrible characters through their milk.

Kate Williams

Redheads were particularly persecuted during the European witch trials of the fifteenth, sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The colour was associated with the devil, and the pale skin which most redheads have was thought unnatural and deathly.

Kate Williams

Like the protagonist of her 2006 novel, 'Love and Other Impossible Pursuits,' Ayelet Waldman is a Jewish redhead who attended Harvard Law School and is madly in love with her husband. But the obvious similarities end there.

Katie Hafner

People keep asking me if I am having more fun, being blonde, but I always have fun! Whether I'm blonde, redhead, or brunette! I always have fun.

Kelly Clarkson

I love being a redhead. It's a rare thing, so I think there's a bond between redheads.

Laura Prepon

In British culture, redheads get teased at school. But I've grown up enough to realize I love my hair.

Lily Cole

In Holland, there's a song that goes, 'Redheads - they know how to kiss.' But that's obviously not a song I made. I don't know who made that song.

Lotte Verbeek

Once in his life, every man is entitled to fall madly in love with a gorgeous redhead.

Lucille Ball

I grew up in a small town, I was the only redhead other than my brother.

Madelaine Petsch

Even though we were selling more records than a lot of pop acts, we were being treated like the redheaded stepchildren.

Martie Maguire

I am for sure a redhead and there aren't that many of us out there in music.

Melissa Auf der Maur

I'm not just a big-haired redhead country singer who dresses flamboyantly, has this wicked sense of humor and wears rhinestones.

Naomi Judd

I think redheads have more fun than blondes.

Neon Hitch

I'm one of those people who likes to be the only redhead in the village.

Nicola Roberts

When you know what the male species is looking for - 'I'm not into a redhead,' 'I don't want a fat chick,' - I have to tell them that X won't date you unless you're this. I'm just the messenger.

Patti Stanger

I don't hate redheads! The millionaire men - wealthy men - never pick them. Every time I offer them they say no. I could say the most gorgeous redhead in the world and they'll say no, they don't want it. Now if you ask an Irish guy in Ireland, he says 'yes,' because that's indigenous to that country.

Patti Stanger

Looking back, it amuses me that people imagined that I was a very brash, fearless, redheaded young revolutionary when I was in fact a very insecure, mousy-haired, middle-aged man with a deep fear of authority.

Paul Kaye

In college, my friends called me Mr. James Bond 007 because I entertained everything: blonds, brunettes, redheads. I'm across the board.

Paul Walker

I was a redhead when I first came to America.

Poppy Montgomery

I'm pretty sure I could've ended up on 'Real Housewives of Orange County.' They need a fair-skinned redhead.
