More quotes by Jenna Fischer
I think we all spend, sometimes, more time at our jobs than we do at home, and there are people that we wouldn't necessarily choose to spend so much time with. So those irritations and those, just those situations I think are really relatable.
Jenna Fischer
I'm a believer in the parent first, friend second philosophy, and trying to find that balance.
Jenna Fischer
Yeah, you know I don't ever see myself doing a super-gritty, hard-core drama.
Jenna Fischer
I spent my whole adolescence, when you just want to be accepted, looking much younger than everyone else.
Jenna Fischer
I'm not prepared for a zombie apocalypse. I need more bottled water, a shotgun, and stronger abs. I have plenty of canner food.
Jenna Fischer
Tilda Swinton is a great example of a person who completely disappears into a role.
Jenna Fischer
I'm not one to air my dirty laundry for the whole world.
Jenna Fischer
Even in college I tended to get cast in the comedies more. It was what I liked doing.
Jenna Fischer
I had this crazy job, though, when I first got to Los Angeles... I answered this ad in the back of the newspaper to be a telephone psychic, and I did that for two days.
Jenna Fischer
I was definitely raised this way. My folks are very grounded, normal people, and I wasn't raised in the entertainment industry. I just grew up in St. Louis, Missouri, in a very normal family. I wasn't a child actor or anything like that.
Jenna Fischer
I'd been out in Los Angeles for about eight years, knocking around. I actually, instead of waiting tables, worked in offices as a temporary assistant.
Jenna Fischer
It makes it really hard to just go to a dinner party because, in my work life, I'm surrounded by the funniest people, ever. I'm really spoiled. I laugh a lot, in my day.
Jenna Fischer
I don't have any type of sketch-comedy or stand-up background.
Jenna Fischer
I'm a very thoughtful, forward-thinking, planner kind of person. I love Excel spreadsheets and five-year-plans, and I love to review every year how my New Year's resolutions went.
Jenna Fischer
I always worry that people are going to be very confused sometimes timelines get confused with how movies get made. So when I say, Oh, I made this movie when I was going through a divorce, people think, Oh no! She's pregnant with a child and divorced?
Jenna Fischer
I'm very deliberate and I love Excel spreadsheets and I love five-year plans and all that. So it felt really fun to play someone so incredibly different from myself.
Jenna Fischer
I don't have real big aspirations to be a movie star. I would love to be on a long-running hit TV show. You end up playing a defining role.
Jenna Fischer
As the lead of a movie, you really set the tone off-camera as well, and that's a really big responsibility.
Jenna Fischer
I studied theater in college, and I really wanted to be an actress and play a lot of different roles. Then I made landing on a television comedy my main focus.
Jenna Fischer
Finally, I was called for The Office and I was really lucky, because a lot of the shows that I went out for I would work my way up from, like, an audition with the casting director to the director to the producers to the studio, I'd go through seven auditions, and then they'd give the role to a famous actress.
