Téa Leoni's quotes

• I don't do T&A very well because I haven't got much of either.
• [about David Duchovny] The best thing about marriage is David's sense of humor.
• Not to sound like a whore, but I've been with . . . I've worked with . . . some very attractive men. Nicolas Cage . . . Al Pacino . . . Ben Stiller . . . and Woody Allen".
• We have this incredible cast with Billy Bob Thornton, who is maybe my new favorite person in the world.
• [about husband David Duchovny's off-Broadway debut] I think getting over opening night, his first opening night of his life, was a huge milestone. And he did it with such grace and flying colors. I'm very proud of him.
• I am not addicted to, attracted to, or neurotically pursuing stardom.
• It was just this interesting, my first, the first time you hear your child in any way criticize you. It's the worst review of your life and it's really relieving to find out that they don't know what they're saying.
• If I swim in the ocean, I have a shark thought. Not a bad one, but just a little one.
• I don't mean to be presumptuous that men don't feel this, I don't mean this, but I found that when my child was born, my first child, it felt like my heart broke.
• I live by a hill. I began walking it and then I began jogging it and then I began sprinting it.
• Shopping turns me off.
• First of all, returning from motherhood, I was looking for something lighter, and I wasn't as much attracted to Kate as I was to the relationship between the two people.
• I was one of the most brilliant liars as a child.
• At one point, I had 14 pairs of golf shoes.
• I have always loathed working out.
• I'm not a huge fan of my work.
• Well, I think again, the worst part of it was just leading up to it, before we got on set . . . at least for me . . . dreading this idea that I was just going to suck and I really had strong feelings about that. I just didn't want to be that weak link.
• Sometimes I feel that Manhattan in particular has gotten really tame and gentrified or something.
• It's kind of fun to be sexy.
• The one thing I think you must do is, as painful as it is as a parent, is listen.
• People don't know this, but early in your career, you don't just glide on to "The Tonight Show".
• Acting doesn't feel good. It's not comfortable to feel all this stuff, it's not.
• [James L. Brooks] is a very powerful director and it was a lot of intense work.
• And I thought, you know, I have to say that maybe the whacked out mother is my new favorite role, but I don't want to just do it and become Nurse Ratchett.
• I don't think, there's no possible way for me, anyway, to play a character that I haven't found some sort of sublime compassion for and I related to Deborah on a way that almost, initially, almost in a way maybe someone in the audience might.
• But I can tell you that the New York that I see now is not the New York that we grew up in. It's not 1973.
• I've been in a gym probably nine days of my life.
• I dress up for awards, but only if somebody else is going to pay for the clothes. And shop for them, too!
• But I've never looked at myself as being particularly funny.
• I'm not quite ready for a no-makeup movie.
• Well, what I will tell you is for this movie, I got into probably the best shape of my life.
• Really it was the first time in my life that I recognized that acting is, I'm just going to say it, I am an artist, I have to do this, I have to do this.
• I was desperate to go back to New York and when 9/11 happened, I feared moving to the bulls-eye and that was very hard because I have a lot of family there and I really had to question what I didn't like about this community.
• Well, I don't find glamour and clothing relevant.
• I just mean it's very difficult for me to watch my work, in some ways, because I am critical of what I didn't get across or I thought I was making one point.
• Yes, I guess I am bi-coastal.
