Quote

I just felt like, Why would you discuss my body as if it's an object? People will come up and say things like, Are your breasts real? I mean, people will come up and discuss my body as if I'm not human.

It's funny, honestly, by rights, with a lot of the stuff that's happened to me I should be running down the street with my hair on fire, but instead I want to shape things, and I want to shake things up. There's nothing wrong with being an agitator.

When I get my feelings hurt, or when things scare me, or freak out my sensibilities, or when my feathers get ruffled, it takes me aback, of course, but then I think, I'm grateful that I have a mind that can want more for people and want more for the planet. It's not that hard. It's really quite simple.

I'd never even seen orange cheese. I mean, who decided to make that orange? And so there was something different about me that they wanted to crush. I don't think it had anything to do with my physicality, but every single day in school it was, You're the ugliest thing I've ever seen.

I was never nervous directing. Not once. I'm more nervous acting. I'm far more nervous on set, before I say my lines, than I ever have been, as a director.
Rose McGowan

I see so much beauty in people and in the world and when I see ugliness I try to either expose it or fight but also remind myself that it's mostly just people who can't spell who say mean things.
Rose McGowan

I still say I can do whatever I want as long as I'm not hurting anybody else. I don't understand why more people aren't like that.

I did a cover for Rolling Stone the other day and it was a kind of crazy lack of outfit. I thought, Oh, Lord. I'm never going to be Jane Austen in a film now! 'Cause that's what I'd really like to do.
