More quotes by David Duchovny
People are really much more respectful than they're made out to be and much more discerning about the fact that I'm not the character I play.
David Duchovny
I look back the old old ones [X-Files series], from the beginning, and I'm kind of mortified by my acting! But I'm kind of impressed by my enthusiasm. I'm just thankful that I got to become better at what I did, and that we didn't get cancelled in the first year.
David Duchovny
I think [kids] enjoy reading, but it's a different world now. There are a lot of competitors for the imaginative attention.
David Duchovny
I don't know if [Samuel] Beckett is something you ever bring to the beach - get out of the water, towel off, and start reading some of The Unnamable. Although, because it's the kind of book you can open to any page and start reading, it is beach reading in that way.
David Duchovny
I love dogs. They live in the moment and don't care about anything except affection and food. They're loyal and happy. Humans are just too damn complicated.
David Duchovny
I was about 26 or 27 and it was imperative that I make a living right away and it's hard to make a living on stage, so I started in television and film.
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
I wouldn't say we were doing that. I think we probably stopped thinking. Though it took a while to stop thinking.
David Duchovny
I've run into certain geniuses of individualism - they are very few and far between - who live their lives completely on their own terms they are very powerful and have a great amount of happiness. We all should aspire to that.
David Duchovny
I wouldn't succeed at musical theater.
David Duchovny
I'm always trying to perfect the romantic comedy, though.
David Duchovny
I lost my virginity when I was 14. And I haven't been able to find it.
David Duchovny
I love Doctor Who and I remember the first one, which was wonderful in its low-tech quality. I also loved the theme song, which sounded like The Cure to me. Which character would I like to play in Doctor Who? Who's the bad guy? The Dalek? OK, I'll play him.
David Duchovny
A bath tub, apparently, was the first thing I wanted to be.
David Duchovny
I really like gratuitous nudity. I hate when people go, 'I'll only do it if it makes sense for the movie'. It never makes sense. So I like it - the more gratuitous the better.
David Duchovny
It's always like you write a poem when you can't really say what you're trying to say.
David Duchovny
I'm very proud of my Scottish blood.
David Duchovny
We all know people for that length of time and people change. They mature. There is a certain expectation that a fictional character does not change. But you can't go back and play him the same way.
David Duchovny
TV directors just aren't sexy for some reason, Although, you know, Rob and Kim [Manners] are very sexy in my eyes.
David Duchovny
I think it was W.H. Auden who said he was lucky that his first favorite poet was Thomas Hardy, who was a good but not a great poet, because if you are exposed to the greats too soon it can just squash you as a writer.
David Duchovny
