More quotes by Sherilyn Fenn
I was a brat. It was crazy, I was very picky. In other words, I didn't take advantage of what was happening
Sherilyn Fenn
I love to dance. But I don't like being up in front of tons of people. I didn't have that in me to do it, the desire to be performing in front of a lot of people. If there's a lot of people on a set, I get nervous. So music just wasn't something I ever seriously considered.

For me acting is pretending. It's illuminating my human struggle - trying to grow and have the courage to be filmed while figuring things out.

Boxing Helena was something that I think was pretty cool, but people judged it without even having seen it. It's not perfect, but I think for the story that we were trying to tell, it turned out pretty good. What it signified was really powerful to me: how society puts us in boxes one way or another.

I'm contemplating moving to London for a period of time. I've been in Los Angeles for 15 years and I'm really tired of it. I'm continually uninspired by what's being sent to me. Even by huge films that they're doing there. They're just awful.

I really loved Twin Peaks. When I saw the two-hour pilot, they screened it in the big theatre. I said, I don't know what is going to happen. I'm in this and I don't understand it. This is never going to sell. Who's going to watch this thing?
Sherilyn Fenn
I got Twin Peaks, and the part was basically written for me, which was a really big shock. I think everything really changed with the right teacher coming together, but before that I worked with Sondra Seacat she's amazing and very spiritual, but I hadn't worked with her on specific roles. I just was in classes with her.

Generally, Hollywood makes the same stories over and over. I've never wanted to do the same thing twice. If a script doesn't surprise me in some way, I simply can't commit to the project.
Sherilyn Fenn
In a perfect world, I could be doing some bigger films and balance that with some independent films because they seem to be the most challenging and unique
Sherilyn Fenn
Women do feel like they're in a box. Society, Hollywood, some men... they want to wrap women up in a neat little package.

The beauty of age is we grow, we learn. We have more wisdom.

I'd moved to L.A. with my mother when I was 17 or 18. She loved show business and I was young enough that I had no idea what I wanted to do.
Sherilyn Fenn
It was just this sudden call like it was an emergency. Quick! You have to go do this... because it's Friends! I was just, Oh, my God, okay!
Sherilyn Fenn
Being a mother for me was like, Oh, this is what I've been looking for my whole life. This brings me a sense of completion. I never knew I would love this deeply.

I can sing, but my voice is untrained. Id like to do a musical someday.
