- About her relationship with Johnny Depp: "The first time we made love was on our 3rd date. It was very romantic. He had candles in his apartment in New York and roses on the bed. I remember feeling like a princess. I still feel like a princess. He treats me with respect and that is the most important thing."
- About her relationship with Johnny Depp: £When I met Johnny, I was pure virgin. He changed that. He was my first everything. My first real kiss. My first real boyfriend. My first fiancé. The first guy I had sex with. So he'll always be in my heart. Forever. Kind of funny that word."
- About Johnny Depp's tattoo "Winona Forever": "I thought it was so cool. Like, I never knew a guy who would ever do that for me. He looked like he enjoyed it. I started crying, Johnny was trying not to scream. He was laughing, even Mike got a little emotional. I just couldn't stop thanking him for it. But I gave him a bigger thank you when we got home that night!"
- About playing Edward scissorhands with Johnny Depp: "We just got Edward Scissorhands on VHS and we love watching it together but he doesn’t’ like watching himself on camera. So he feels a little weird but we make the best out of it. We just laugh at something funny or a little inside that we have during the movie.”
- About Johnny Depp: "I can't get him out of my head! It's like I'm always seeing his image in my head, not that that's a bad thing. My life has changed for the better since I'm with Johnny. He's so amazing!"
- About her and Johnny Depp: "We love to dance. Gosh, we own like a thousand CD's. It's crazy! Believe it or not, there will be times where I'm cooking dinner and Johnny puts on Aerosmith and comes down dancing in my clothes. It's great!"
- About her seeing again Johnny Depp in 1998: "Well, we went out to dinner, just as friends, a couple days ago and we talked about what's going on in life. It's really great that we can just sit and enjoy each other’s company. Right now it's hard for us, I just broke up with Matt and he just broke up with Kate. So we can both relate."
- About her split with Johnny Depp: "When we broke up, it was horrible. I mean it was so hard to get over and we had every thing out for the wedding. So that was difficult to tell people that the wedding was off, but what can I do now. Just move on. But I still think about all those good times we had."
- In 1994 about her split with Johnny Depp: I think he's great and I have nothing but kind things to say about him. But I do really still love him.
- When you finally accept that it's OK not to have answers and it's OK not to be perfect, you realize that feeling confused is a normal part of what it is to be a human being.
- But I've always felt a need to have a life which is completely separate - at least as far as possible - from the kind of illusory lifestyle that comes with being a celebrity.
- My dad took me to all the best rock and punk shows when I was growing up and music has always been a part of my life. So I'm very interested in the music scene and I suppose that's why I've ended up going out with musicians. Dave Pirner is still one of my best friends.
- I was very depressed after breaking off my engagement with Johnny ten years ago. I was embarrassingly dramatic at the time, but you have to remember I was only 19 years old.
- That's an aspect of this business which can be very frustrating and aggravating. Most of what is written about you is wrong and so much of what does get printed is often about personal things that you don't want to have other people read about.
- I was regarded as the school freak which further reinforced a lot of inhibitions and doubts I had about myself. I was a shy, frightened teenager for a long time.
- It's just people should realize that the celebrity aspect of being an actor is very rarely enjoyable for people like me who would always rather go unnoticed and disappear into the crowd.
- Weird people follow you in the streets, you can't sit alone in a restaurant or a cafe and read a book in peace, and I think everybody values those moments of being alone.
- Money doesn't matter on a deeply personal level. It doesn't make you feel any happier. But of course I am very aware that I don't have to worry about earning a living or about those very important practical things that most people have to worry about on a very real level.
- People think that they just want movies like Pretty Woman, when really they - at least the ones that I know personally - have been waiting for something that doesn't completely insult them.
- I'm not into wrinkles.
- It's part of the celebrity process but my life has never been as interesting or as wild as what's been printed about me.
- I don't hang out with agents and producers and I'm not into the business side at all.
- I welcome turning 30 because I like approaching the beginning of something instead of the end. I'm at a really good place and feel grounded.
- You try to get out there and live. I've always had good friends who've been very supportive and help make me feel good and grounded because I've never felt attached to the film industry.
