Top 10 Sherilyn Fenn Quotes

1. 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.
2. Bleaching my hair for Two Moon Junction... my hair was fried and I looked like an idiot.
3. People who think they know me would be surprised that my whole life doesn't revolve around sex.
4. Now I know why guys like to hug girls. You guys just want to cop a feel. I can't believe that I've fallen for it all these years!
5. I don't flirt and I don't play the people that I'm meeting with.
6. I loved working on Of Mice and Men. It was a wonderful group of people. John Malkovich is to me one of the best actors around right now-and a lot of fun to work with.
7. The truth is, I was always picky anyway.
8. I think there's an anxiety in life where we automatically tend to look to the next thing or we're complaining about the past. Worrying is not going to make it happen or not happen.
9. I love to dance. But I don't like being up in front of tons of people. I didn't have the desire to be performing in front of a lot of people. So it wasn't something I ever seriously considered.
10. 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.
