I don't flirt and I don't play the people that I'm meeting with.

I've always been drawn to Marilyn Monroe, but certain aspects of her story may be too sad to tell

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?

Instead of making Friday The 13th, Part VIII or whatever, I was making the girl-meets-boy, girl-meets-girl-dressed-as-boy movie. It was fun. I liked it. It's goofy. I look back at myself and think, "What the hell was I doing?"

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.

My mother's been married many, many times and grew up believing in love like that. It's remarkable.

Women do feel like they're in a box. Society, Hollywood, some men... they want to wrap women up in a neat little package.
