Juliette Lewis Quotes

Everybody knows that I'm not the most beautiful woman in the world.

I had a very hard time accepting myself as a character actress because I wanted to be glamorous and a leading lady like everybody else. I looked in the mirror and thought I looked pretty good, but casting didn't ever see me that way.

I'm cool with the way I look, I'm not an ugly dog, but I don't see myself as a stud or anything.
