David Duchovny
I enjoy trying to figure out the best way to compliment the picture and not overpower it.
David Duchovny
I'm the one usually wearing the dress, which is what I would've preferred, but they wouldn't let me. It's been 15 years since I did that and my ass isn't as good as it used to be.
David Duchovny
Fame does lead to money, which I don't have a close relationship with. I'm the kind of guy who never sees the money - it all goes somewhere else. I don't understand it, I don't like to deal with it. I have a fear of not having it, because I grew up without it.
David Duchovny
It seems unlikely that we're alone in the universe. But I'm pretty sure nobody's hiding any contact.
David Duchovny
I lost my virginity when I was 14. And I haven't been able to find it.
David Duchovny
I had a fear that I'd be typecast, but I don't really have that fear anymore.
David Duchovny
I'm half Jewish, half Scottish. It's hard for me to buy anything.
David Duchovny
The key is to get to know people and trust them to be who they are. Instead, we trust people to be who we want them to be - and when they're not, we cry.
David Duchovny
