More quotes by Gillian Anderson
People generally treat me like I'm very intelligent and really, I'm much less intelligent than she is. Scully is insanely intelligent.
Gillian Anderson
I think we're tremendously different than the series, if they were to tune in to the series after seeing the movie they might be disappointed. That there was, you know, that they might have some kind of adverse reaction.
Gillian Anderson
I’m trying to accept where I’m at, not run from it.
Gillian Anderson
In my case, I was born to parents who were very young, and I don't think they were entirely ready to have a child. My dad was going to college and working two or three jobs at the same time, and my mum was working and going to school.
Gillian Anderson
In retrospect, I think that I've been given quite a few scripts over the years that had dark elements to them but most of them took place in the countryside with a haunted house. I think I've probably had that script about six to 10 times over the past few years. Or it was something to do with the supernatural.
Gillian Anderson
When I think of normality I think of mediocrity
Gillian Anderson
People come in and out of our lives to teach us. And we teach other people. It's part of the process. They come in and they go out. Some stay for longer than others.
Gillian Anderson
I was a daydreamer, and there is a lot of history and geography and science I missed out on because I was in my head. And I regret that.
Gillian Anderson
I tend to be very skeptical and judgmental. I'm not really a conspiracy theorist, but I'm more likely to believe the people that speak about a conspiracy, or are convinced of conspiracies in the government, than the people who have 100 percent faith in the people who are running America.
Gillian Anderson
I didn't pay as much attention in school as I would have liked to.
Gillian Anderson
I mean the whole thing about meditation and yoga is about connecting to the higher part of yourself, and then seeing that every living thing is connected in some way.
Gillian Anderson
I have a real problem with stillness. With just stopping and being quiet.
Gillian Anderson
The first time, where Fox Mulder and Scully met, she stands up for herself. She stands right there and gives it to him and that was extremely attractive.
Gillian Anderson
I would never point a finger at anyone and say, 'They lived their life badly.' I take it as it comes and deal with each situation as it arrives.
Gillian Anderson
I became an actor because it was the only thing I could do. I didn't have any friends, I didn't fit in. But when I started acting everything in my life shifted and I felt happy.
Gillian Anderson
We are all dying. Every single day that we are alive.
Gillian Anderson
It's taken a while for me to convince people that I can do something other than Scully. And it still takes effort.
Gillian Anderson
Be of service. Whether you make yourself available to a friend or co-worker, or you make time every month to do volunteer work, there is nothing that harvests more of a feeling of empowerment than being of service to someone in need.
Gillian Anderson
If I chose to have a nanny, I'd be able to pay to have a nanny - a lot of women don't have that opportunity. I don't feel like I'm a working single mom, because I have that option that a lot of people don't have.
Gillian Anderson
I truly believe that we can overcome any hurdle that lies before us and create the life we want to live. I have seen it happen time and time again.
Gillian Anderson
