Allison Janney
I think it was a subject matter that The Social Network didn't involve a lot of women. That's all I think it is.
Allison Janney
Someone said I wasn't attractive enough. People say those things, but they make you stronger. Then you can win an Emmy and think, ha, ha, ha.

I grew up with brothers. I love men. Of course it's hard to be a woman in a man's world.
Allison Janney
I have the power of my height. Growing up, it was a total drawback. There was nothing good about it at all.

The wonderful thing about Crystal in Mr. Sunshine is that she doesn't have any boundaries. She's not aware socially of what's correct and incorrect. Crystal's probably the craziest character I've ever had to do and the furthest I've gone, with the only exception being Away We Go - I was pretty big in that.

I'm kind of at the mercy of writers out there. I need a writer out there who wants to write a vehicle for me. Do it and get it to me immediately. I do want to be a lead. I want to play a lead role in a movie.

Allison Janney
I do like ensemble work. I would like to do a lead role, though. I didn't shy away from that. I'm desperately looking for a lead role to do in a film, an independent film, and it just hasn't come my way yet. I'm desperately looking for that role that will put me in a lead category. Or a television series.
Allison Janney
I never watched Lost. I just thought it would be fun to be part of something that was such a big part of pop culture. But I thought I was going to be acting with more of the other people. I didn't know that I was going to be on my own on the island, doing this whole other storyline.
Allison Janney
One out of forty American men wears women's clothing. We've had more than forty presidents. One of these guys has been dancing around the Oval Office in a prom dress.
Allison Janney
I like people trying to do two things at once.
Allison Janney
I trust other people to tell me if it's too far or tasteless, because there's not too much that I won't do. I like to push the limits. Obviously, that's more dangerous and more fun for everybody.
Allison Janney
I got offered that role in Transamerica that Felicity Huffman did. That was a part that I was like, Well, maybe I should've done that. I'm at peace with it, but that is one thing that I did turn down that went on to do great things for her. I wonder what would've happened if I would've done that.
Allison Janney
I love wasting time and learning to lip-sync to songs it's a silly hobby of mine.
Allison Janney
I'm afraid of flying.
Allison Janney
I'm the worst speller on the planet. I'm so glad for spellcheck on my phone.
