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.

More quotes by 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.
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
Bleaching my hair for Two Moon Junction... my hair was fried and I looked like an idiot.
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
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.
Sherilyn Fenn
People who think they know me would be surprised that my whole life doesn't revolve around sex.
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.
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.
Sherilyn Fenn
Jessica Lange in Frances... was dramatic and passionate and one of the strongest performances I've seen a woman do
Sherilyn Fenn
Whatever the future holds I'm not really sure.
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
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
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
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 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
At the very least, my tastes are out of the ordinary.
Sherilyn Fenn
It's so nice not to worry about myself anymore. I only worry about my children.
Sherilyn Fenn
They've offered me every variation on Audrey Horne, none of which were as good or as much fun.
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
Now I just feel like I'm more open to life. I have two children.
