Zitat des Tages von Juliette Lewis:
There is growth. Get out of the past.
There' s a duality in myself, and it's also what I try and instill in my roles.
What do I think being wild is? Nothing. Actually, the whole world is wild. Everything is wild. There we go.
I love the process of working with a filmmaker and the writers and the actors.
I collect clothes - they keep building and building. I buy them instead of having them washed.
The bravest thing I ever did was continuing my life when I wanted to die.
When you become famous at 19, it does a number in your head, so you find romance in the mundane - isn't it so great that a guy would pick me up at my house and take me to a restaurant?
I normally don't concern myself with, 'Will audiences like me or like my character?'
I think I can be beautiful with all the little stuff done, and I can be ugly. A lot of attractive actresses can't be ugly.
I have a huge fear of crowds. The irony is that my band is a therapeutic exercise. I hurl myself into thousands of people.
I love L.A. I fall more in love with it as I get older.
Success is a nice by-product but what I really want is work.
I didn't think my success from film was going to translate at all, musically. In fact, it worked against me.
Fame can be just so annoying because people are so critical of you. You can't just say, 'hi'. You say hi and people whisper' man did you see the way she said hi? What an attitude.
The thing is, I want to play real characters and not all girls can be pretty. The thing is, you get these girls who say 'I'm a character actor' then you see them in a role and nothing has really changed but the outfit.
My first boyfriend was a surfer. We bonded over loving the sun, Depeche Mode, and The Cure.
TV is wild. You just play the role you're given, and you show up and do the best that you can.
When I feel something, I feel it to the ninth power.
I don't make an effort to be sloppy. I just don't consider a perfect hairdo and a perfect face to be beautiful. If I had my way I'd dress myself and do my own makeup for magazine shoots.
I wear my heart on my sleeve. I have no poker face.
As early as when I was five or six I wanted to perform.
I knew I could live no other way, that the one thing I wanted was to act and do it well.
It always surprises me when people say, 'I don't regret one thing about my life. I wouldn't change anything because it's all led me to where I am today.' I would want to change certain things that have caused others pain.
Being an actor is like being a bass player: one of the component parts to the collective hole.
My first tour I did was The Warped Tour, and I was likening myself to the bearded lady at the circus because not only was I an actor touring, doing rock n' roll, but I was also a female front person making really muscular, male-dominated rock music.
I think in my late 20s, I was starting to enter that realm of complacency, which is the most terrifying place I can imagine as an artist. I felt time creeping up on me.
Being beautiful can be a curse, especially if you want to be an artist and create.
Musically, I wear many hats. I'm the social media director. I conceptualise the videos, write the songs, do the press. I'm not a major label act.
I was meant to make music in my soul way younger than I did. I was just scared because I knew it would take more of me than anything else. But I was all into facing my fears.
I experience so many feelings and emotions when I tour. It's the most amazing and also the most lonely thing you can do.
All this primal energy people respond to in me and my characters is in my music, 10 times more.
The worst thing you can do to a kid is tell them that their dreams are invalid.
I kind of imagine myself at eighty, a cat lady.
Leaving your home can be a fear at times. You gotta make yourself get out.
I just care about what I get to unearth and what makes me uncomfortable and what makes me grow because, ultimately, I just don't want to ever play it safe.
Because I'm not perfect looking, I get to play better roles.
