More quotes by 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
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.

People who think they know me would be surprised that my whole life doesn't revolve around sex.
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.

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

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.

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.
Sherilyn Fenn
Playing Elizabeth Taylor was probably the hardest job I've ever done.
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.
Sherilyn Fenn
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
I'm not big with an audience I get very nervous.
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
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
It's so nice not to worry about myself anymore. I only worry about my children.
Sherilyn Fenn
The beauty of age is we grow, we learn. We have more wisdom.
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

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?
