Juliette Lewis

“In detective land, you have to deal with a lot of intense emotions, so you yourself have to remain mostly unemotional and detached. These are people, like law enforcement and surgeons, in pr...”

“Not all detectives are the same - some play bad cop, some are awkward, some are funny.”

“Like everybody I have many different sides.”

“There' s a duality in myself, and it's also what I try and instill in my roles.”

“My brother has endless footage of us as kids because he had a video camera when we were growing up. The trippiest part was my younger self predicting my future path, like a truth-seer.”

“I have people come up to me who love 'The Other Sister,' or 'Old School,' or 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape.'”

“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 have a huge fear of crowds. The irony is that my band is a therapeutic exercise. I hurl myself into thousands of people.”

“I used to be really insular, really introverted. I couldn't articulate myself.”

“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 can tell you I have dealt with mania my whole life.”

“I didn't like school at all. I never liked the seven different classes system. I liked having just one, like in elementary school - less disruption. I liked history. I failed math and scienc...”

“I grew up in Hollywood in an apartment. Then in Tarzana, California, on a mini ranch where we owned horses and chickens.”

“The mainstream media is funded by pharmaceutical companies, so when you have the biggest movie star in the world at the time - Tom Cruise - coming out against anti-depressants and Ritalin......”

“All that schooling never prepares you for the reality of life.”

“It's always been my dream to have a monster rhythm section that's just all groove and pocket.”
