If you are lucky, there is a moment in your life when you have some say as to what your currency is going to be. I decided early on it was not going to be my looks.

About This Quote

People often say that their looks are either the currency of their life or they have no currency. For Jennifer Aniston, she decided early on that her look was not going to be an issue. She has said in interviews that she knew at the age of 10 that she wanted to be an actress. But, even though she had her mind made up, she didn’t know what her looks would be like.

At first glance, you might think Aniston has no currency because of her looks; however, this is untrue. She is still very popular today and has starred in some of the most popular movies of all time like “Friends,” “The Good Girl” and “Horrible Bosses.”
