While I learned, I hid out largely in the gay community, and overall it kept me very safe.

I love the absurd - kind of absurdist comedy, absurd things in life.
Rose McGowan
Image
People get so burned out on hearing about sexism, but you know what? I would love to burn out on it. I would love to never talk about that again, but until we're all equal I shall have to fight, and remain fighting.
Rose McGowan
Image
I'm not attracted to dangerous men. I'm attracted, apparently, to height. One ex was 6'6 the one before was 6'4, then 6'3. I like freakishly tall people.

Image
I think if I had lived back in Salem, I would have been burned at the stake
Rose McGowan
Image
I think of the kids that live on top of garbage dumps, I think of the ways we could reach out to other countries, I think of certainly climate change. There's so much. The nighttime is that time, is it not?
Rose McGowan
Image
If one person starts crying, I'll cry. If one person has no money, I'll give them mine. If I had a bicycle growing up, I always felt incredibly guilty when I see someone sitting at the bus stop.
Rose McGowan
Image
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

The people that are the invisible ones, the marginalized, the quote-unquote weirdos, the people that get things thrown at them, the people that get harassed every day just for existing . . . I just still strongly align with them.
Rose McGowan
Image
Gosh, if I'm gonna take a big stand on something I would hope it would be for more than flip flops!
Rose McGowan
Image
I love shooting guns. I would never shoot an animal or hunt, but I probably would be a very good hit woman. It's hand-in-glove for me.
Rose McGowan
Image
I was up watching Meet Joe Black at four AM. I was hoping Brad Pitt would die, and he was still alive at seven forty in the morning! I actually felt sorry for once, for critics.
Rose McGowan
Image
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.

Short-sightedness is killing us.
Rose McGowan
Image
A lot of times when you do things where you're killing people, the character is always having an existential crisis about it. It's fun to be no-holds-barred and have no big crisis of conscious.
Rose McGowan
Image
Quentin Tarantino is controlled insanity, I would say. He's very loud and fun. I don't think there's anybody on the planet like him that I have ever met.
Rose McGowan
Image
There was a story that I was in a shoe shop and that I threw a pair of flip flops at the wall, shouting, 'I can't believe how overpriced these are!' I thought, 'Gosh, if I'm gonna take a big stand on something I would hope it would be for more than flip flops!'

Why are women still this underclass? If we all banded together...
Rose McGowan
Image
I like strong, strong women who don't go down without a fight. I like iconic roles. They don't come around very often, so I have to wait for them. Obviously I'm not the typical blonde who stands by the side, while the man has all the fun.
Rose McGowan
Image
You have to work to carve out your own little corner, and I'm certainly smacking my head against the wall trying to make a dent. I just hope I don't get brain-damaged before I get there
Rose McGowan
Image
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.
