Doing things Quote by Mena Suvari
“I love doing things that are different from what I've done before. I don't want to do always the same thing. I always said that I never wanted to just do the pretty girl role, that's it. I wanted meaty roles. I definitely have to love the story but also I have to love the character. That's about it for me.”
