A lot of people I went to college with felt like they wanted to pursue theater exclusively, so I don't think that I really was in competition with people that I went to school with.

More quotes by Gillian Jacobs
I keep reminding myself, through all the ups and downs of 'Community,' that I might never have another job that really means something to people, the way 'Community' means something to people. [...] That's more powerful than ratings.
Gillian Jacobs
Boy, you know, it's amazing how your brain can turn into a sieve, and you can literally forget episodes that you have shot.
Gillian Jacobs
I think, you know, when you're an actor who's had periods of unemployment, it makes you feel really good to have a job - to say that you're expected somewhere, do you know what I mean?
Gillian Jacobs
I've thought a lot about how if something horrible happened, and if it were like 'The Road' situation, I've decided I don't want to survive past the death of society as we know it.
Gillian Jacobs
Bitterness doesn't serve you any good. And it really tells you more about how you feel about yourself than anything you feel about your friends.
Gillian Jacobs
I think that it is important to establish a world of place for the characters in improv and there is nothing to be gained from disagreeing about that. So you have to establish the principle that if some person establishes one thing we're all going to go along with it and that we are all building from it.
Gillian Jacobs
A lot of my friends are guys, so I'm used to bro antics.
Gillian Jacobs
I had kissed a girl in the second season of 'Community,' but that was my first time kissing a girl ever, and I was so nervous, I almost knocked Brit Marling's teeth out.
Gillian Jacobs
Accept your failure, move on, and don't torture yourself.
Gillian Jacobs
I'm not conservative, but I am kind of clean living in my own life.
Gillian Jacobs
We're all alone in this world.
Gillian Jacobs
I would love it if 'Community' could have a trajectory like '30 Rock' and choose when to go out.
Gillian Jacobs
There were definitely bands and musicians I liked that drove my mother insane. I probably liked them all the more for it! Bjork drove my mom nuts. What I listened to was actually pretty mom-friendly for the most part. I wasn't very rebellious.
Gillian Jacobs
Like, I'm hyper-conscious about going to bed on time, and doing my seven-step skin care routine at night.
Gillian Jacobs
I used to like to make myself sad, so I would listen to Bill Callahan as Smog.
Gillian Jacobs
I think when you're in a relationship, either you have something or your partner generally has something that you're having to deal with.
Gillian Jacobs
I always try to have a bigger picture view of my career. But that didn't mean that I didn't cry about not getting jobs.
Gillian Jacobs
I never pursued anything but acting. But as a kid, I was really interested in the Supreme Court. I wanted to to be a Supreme Court justice, but didn't want to be a lawyer. I just wanted to go straight to being a justice.
Gillian Jacobs
A lot of people watch 'Community,' but DVR viewings only count if you watch within a certain time.
Gillian Jacobs
I'm a pretty goofy person. I'm an awkward dancer, for instance, and a terrible singer.
