My gift to my children would be from me to be as honest and true to myself as an artist, and put that out there to the best of my ability.
Sherilyn Fenn
Playing Elizabeth Taylor was probably the hardest job I've ever done.

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
The studios have their list of five actresses and whether they're right or wrong for a role doesn't matter. It's how much money their last movie made.

They've offered me every variation on Audrey Horne, none of which were as good or as much fun.

If you're a young woman in Hollywood, then they want you to look a certain way and paint you in this and that. To this day, it's hard to find people like us, who want to kind of find deep truths, not just skirt above the top of it.

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.
Sherilyn Fenn
I don't know why people see the things that they do. I wouldn't pay to see them, they don't touch me or move me in any way.
Sherilyn Fenn
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.
Sherilyn Fenn
Talking to fans has really blown my mind. It's made me so happy to know my work has touched people.
Sherilyn Fenn
At the very least, my tastes are out of the ordinary.
Sherilyn Fenn
The beauty of age is we grow, we learn. We have more wisdom.
Sherilyn Fenn
Even if your work touches one person, that's an amazing gift.
Sherilyn Fenn
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
I can sing, but my voice is untrained. Id like to do a musical someday.
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
There is something at work that's bigger than us. It's about having a trust in life and being at peace that things are happening the way they should. You do what you do as well as you can do it, and then you don't worry or agonize about the outcome
