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.
Rose McGowan
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.

The awesome thing about being an artist? You can't be fired from your own mind.
Rose McGowan
My whole family is very art-based. My sister runs a gallery, my other sister works for PACE in New York, my other sister is a sculptor. I'd say the ending one is me because that's the artist and the artist feels a lot.
Rose McGowan
That's my takeaway from 'Scream' - I know I can fit in dog doors. You have to jimmy your body in a certain position and really hope you're not wearing something super fancy.
Rose McGowan
Hetero - normative behavior and herd mentality is dangerous. It's okay to be different. It's okay to stand out for whatever reason. Some people are just born that way and instead of trying to tear them down, learn something new. Be curious and open because maybe that's a pathway out for you, too.
