You have to put your own oxygen mask before you put on others... It's a good metaphor for parenting
Amanda Peet
If you're not willing to sound stupid you don't deserve to be in love.
Amanda Peet
I don't clean, I don't make the bed. I spend my salary. I worry a lot. I just don't worry about socks on the floor.
Amanda Peet
I'm still trying to write. I wrote a play a few years ago, so I'm trying to start writing again. The play was called The Commons Of Pensacola. It was at MTC [Manhattan Theatre Club] with Sarah Jessica Parker and Blythe Danner. It was kind of like a riff on Ruth Madoff.
Amanda Peet
Whenever I was with Kevin Pollak, I had to leave the room.
Amanda Peet
I think children should be vaccinated because that affects the health of all the other children.
Amanda Peet
I wrote a play before that and it never saw the light of day. And then I started working on this play and it came out really quickly. Eventually I got it, and I wrote a letter to Sarah Jessica Parker and she wanted to do it. So that's how it happened.
Amanda Peet
When I read The Whole Nine Yards I was like, 'Okay, this is a G-spot role'.
Amanda Peet
If there were some recipe that would make all of our children really sane and civic-minded and hugely intelligent, I think we'd probably all do it. But I don't know that there is a recipe for creating that.
Amanda Peet
I have a feeling there is no ideal situation, unless she could go back in time and be 22 again. I think some of it is just kind of the shock of realizing that you're approaching middle age, or that you are middle-aged and kind of coming to terms with that in whatever incremental ways.
Amanda Peet
I'd love to work with Joan Cusack again - I'm obsessed with Joan Cusack.
Amanda Peet
Beauty is only skin deep. If you go after someone just because she's beautiful but don't have anything to talk about, it's going to get boring fast. You want to look beyond the surface and see if you can have fun or if you have anything in common with this person.
Amanda Peet
The thing I noticed about Jack was when we did a reading of the script, just to warm up.
Amanda Peet
Nancy has her vision and she's a formidable force to be reckoned with, and that's similar to most of the male directors I've worked with. The only difference is probably inbetween scenes, gossiping with Diane Keaton, Frances McDormand and Nancy Meyers about who's had Botox and who hasn't.
Amanda Peet
As an actor, my main focus is finding good writing and attacking a good role.
Amanda Peet
I think once I was in high school - I had boyfriends and stuff like that, but I think when I was younger, I went through a period where I looked like a boy, and people thought I was a boy.
Amanda Peet
I certainly don't believe in love at first sight. I definitely believe in a lot of chemistry and lust at first sight. I think that love is something that takes work.
Amanda Peet
Someone with a figure like Jennifer Aniston has a trainer, a cook spinning out some version of the latest diet, and probably a stop at the tanning salon.
Amanda Peet
I try to be really hippie about things. I'm uptight in all the ways that are really important, but the things my husband and family can benefit from my uptightness, I'm completely lacking.
Amanda Peet
I would have done anything. I just really love the Duplass brothers. I was at a place where I was desperate for good writing. It wasn't the part that attracted me to it it was just to be able to work with them. And the fact that she's this kind of, like, loose cannon and this kind of desperate 40-year-old is just the icing on the cake.
