More quotes by Alison Pill
True badassery has no gender.
Alison Pill
But it's been funny to try and carry the through line, but I think the main thing is the relationship that the band has because we have spent now all this time together that I think that's sort of what we returning to. And whenever we get to play together, it still sort of returns to that little shitty rehearsal space. So that's good.
Alison Pill
I think it's just different to get married for a woman than it is for a man. The amount of work to overcome certain gender roles in the partnership - just the expectation of housework, kid-work, whatever it is.
Alison Pill
Sitting out of politics isn't really an option if you don't want things to slide.
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.

The biggest thing about growing up in Canada is you know that Los Angeles and New York are not the only places in the world. They're not the only places where brilliant acting happens.
Alison Pill
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
I learned to drum and I'm very excited today. Well, first of all I got to...I learned when I was in New York I sort of did some prepping with just learning basic stuff like beating my couch next to my drum teacher, who's this incredible guy named Charlie Green.
Alison Pill
When you're in film and you're in close, charisma in the eyes and confidence can take over. But when someone's sitting twenty rows back, you need the whole body. You need to be encompassed by an actor.
Alison Pill
The best thing about serial drama - especially about screwball comedy - is blocked love.
Alison Pill
Secrets are great for acting. Secrets are the best thing in the world for acting, because they keep you looking like you have something in the back of your mind.
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
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.
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.
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.
Alison Pill
I can't even vote in America!
Alison Pill
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.
