More quotes by Sherilyn Fenn
I remember my agent at the time called me and was like, I've got it! I've found it! I've found your role! I worked my ass off to get that role, because I think me and three or four other girls tested for it. But it was a great time.

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.
Sherilyn Fenn
I don't think I could ever do a network sitcom because the humor is often based on some trite circumstance. I don't want to be a part of a show where it's mostly about coming up with the jokes.
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

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
I'm in a space of surrendering and being open and seeing. It's a good place to be - the only place to be.

Bleaching my hair for Two Moon Junction... my hair was fried and I looked like an idiot.
Sherilyn Fenn
They've offered me every variation on Audrey Horne, none of which were as good or as much fun.
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.
Sherilyn Fenn
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.
Sherilyn Fenn
I'm not big with an audience I get very nervous.
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.
Sherilyn Fenn
I see people giving me looks because I'm so opinionated. That hurts my feelings, but at the end of the day I have to live with me and respect myself. And I've done enough things in my life where I was confused and didn't respect myself that I will not do it any more.
Sherilyn Fenn
I can sing, but my voice is untrained. Id like to do a musical someday.
Sherilyn Fenn
Twin Peaks was special because it was so groundbreaking. In the early 90s it really changed television a lot. A bunch of weird shows, like Northern Exposure, came on after that.
