I guess the biggest world difference you can make is in people's relations to their own emotions, 'cause emotions rule so much of our daily life, and I think that's where we work.

More quotes by Alison Pill
One of the great things about this cast is that we've been able to take actors of relatively the same age group that would never usually meet. You know, like bridging the comedy/drama world that for some reason casting directors never really want to bridge or you get into one community and that's kind of it.

I can't even vote in America!
Alison Pill
The best thing about serial drama - especially about screwball comedy - is blocked love.
Alison Pill
One thing that has gone away from civil discussion in America is this idea that our neighbors are not out to ruin the world. We need to come at it from a civil place.

I think a lot of people try to plan things in their career. They feel like, If I don't get this done by the time I'm thirty, everything's over. But I've worked with a lot of people whose careers shot to the top later in life.

I didn't like most of my boyfriends. I'm a perfect example of somebody who will make it work no matter what. Like, I once had a guy move in with me. He was my least favorite. Nobody who went out with us knew that we were together. I just would not give off the vibe.

And then we came here for three weeks of band rehearsal with [music consultant/member of the band Sloan] Chris Murphy. And I grew up in Toronto during Sloan's heyday, so like I was like Oh my god! And so that was pretty cool.

And so getting to meet Aubrey Plaza and Mae Whitman and getting to know two awesome girls who are just kick-ass. It's been nice that way where we probably wouldn't have worked together on any other crazy project. And just like you know Chris Evans teaching us all the high-five because he's dealing with like non-jocks (laughter) and we're like yeah!
Alison Pill
Well, it's sort of funny to try and get that balance between just accepting the reality of my friend [co-star Satya Bhabha] flying in from the ceiling of the theatre and like starting to do a dance with demon hipster chicks. It's like, so how do we react when he throws fireballs? Are we surprised? Does this happen a lot?
Alison Pill
Have a kid. You obviously shouldn't have a baby just to get politically active, but I'm eight and a half months pregnant, and I swear, thinking about an actual very real future for a tiny person is a game changer.
Alison Pill
You only live once. Trying to do the right thing for other people often doesnt work out, and you have to follow your own path in order to make things work out best for everyone.

I find that a lot of my best character stuff and ideas come unwittingly from novels. In scripts, it's a lot about the outward signs of whatever's happening - you have the end result. Whereas in a novel you get a buildup of the whys and wherefores, and you're let into the backstory.

It's not just politicians who underestimate us we underestimate ourselves.
Alison Pill
When women are in positions of power it's a hard place to be, especially when that position involves bossing men around.
Alison Pill
Some people get fake boobs, but whatever. You can make your own decisions.

We need to organize and figure out our own voice as a bloc and stop doubting ourselves.
Alison Pill
Okay, I get kicked off the drums when I try and...the notes just keep coming at you and I'm like Ahhhhh! I can't do it. I have literally gotten booed off the stage way too many times. It's terrorizing. The rest of my band mates just are...they tell me to get off. I'm like, I can play bass. Dunk, dunk, dunk, dunk.
Alison Pill
There's a lot more historical baggage to deal with as a wife than as a partner.
Alison Pill
I find it very hard to believe that people would prefer an awkward picture with me than a normal conversation.

The boys have been running Washington for a long-ass time. We're talking 200-some-odd years.
