I don't like watching people work if they're making art.
David Duchovny
In this age of media and Internet access, we are much more talkative than ever before.
David Duchovny
Feelings come and go, unless you don't feel them. Then they stay, and hurt, and grow pear-shaped and weird.
David Duchovny
I'm not reading currently because I'm getting revisions of a novel. If I read while I'm writing I will unconsciously plagiarize and go to jail.
David Duchovny
I understand the self-loathing and the resentment, and the discipline that it takes to sit down in front of a typewriter or computer every single day, whether it's going well or not going well.
David Duchovny
Maybe with Californication the character was partly based on Rick Moody. I read him and Jay McInerney, the templates for this bad boy novelist.
David Duchovny
As names that can mean things, I prefer spiritual to a lot of other things.
David Duchovny
TV was the boogey man when I was growing up. Video games are the boogey man now. The novel was once a boogey man. Books about lowborn people doing lowborn things were once considered a real assault on people's morals. Maybe some day video games will be looked on as a good thing, but personally I don't see it.
David Duchovny
I'm very proud of my Scottish blood.
David Duchovny
I think Mulder is the worst FBI agent in the world. He spends millions of dollars investigating these paranormal phenomena and never comes up with any evidence. He's the Kenneth Starr of the FBI.
David Duchovny
A dream is the mind's way of answering a question it hasn't yet figured out how to ask.
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
I'm half Jewish, half Scottish. It's hard for me to buy anything.
David Duchovny
I had to work in one of the most beautiful ski resorts in the world for almost three weeks. Pity me.
David Duchovny
I had a fear that I'd be typecast, but I don't really have that fear anymore.
David Duchovny
If young actors ask me things, I always tell them to get on set and watch how it's done. If you can, watch the people that you like, how they work.
David Duchovny
My whole life, Ive wanted things before I was ready. I was always pushing for the next job, the next success. I was so focused on achieving and the path that I was missing some great point about life.
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
It's almost obscene when you see people who haven't matured, who haven't changed, who don't have the weight of years on them. So that's interesting to me - to think about playing him into the future, anew.
