More quotes by Jennifer Garner
I mean, I didn't ever watch 'Gilligan's Island' and think, 'Those people are actors.' I lived in West Virginia. Hollywood just felt like this total other universe.
Jennifer Garner
No matter what, it is very tricky and difficult just to be a good parent at all. I have a lot of help. And for that I'm very grateful.
Jennifer Garner
I am a bit of a goody-goody. Not that there aren't times when I think, I was kind of an (ass) today. I work in a world in which people are really catered to someone will come up to me and say, Is it OK if this person's makeup is done before yours for the premiere?
Jennifer Garner
I always, always meant to be on stage. I only ended up even auditioning for television and movies because I was understudying a Turgenev play on Broadway and was so broke that, when I got a mini-series, I had to take it and was so ashamed because I was such a snob.

You can do a lot with Scotch tape. Almost anything! I love that you can hem a dress, and its an instant remedy in a fashion crises.
Jennifer Garner
It's about getting the kids up and fed, getting one to school, getting the other down for a nap, going to the grocery store, picking one up from school, getting the other one down for another nap, cooking dinner... I live my life at these two extremes. I'm either a full-time stay-at-home mom or a full-time actress.
Jennifer Garner
I don't know anyone who was never a geek, really, when they look at their own lives. I think that from the outside looking in, you think that you weren't necessarily a tragic geek, but yes, you did lean in that direction.
Jennifer Garner
I certainly never expected to be in front of a camera one day of my life.
Jennifer Garner
I wish I was one of those cute pregnant girls who wear skinny jeans throughout their pregnancies. But I just gain weight.
Jennifer Garner
I do like having my ears pierced, because there's a lot more choice in pierced earrings than there is with clip-ons, and they're a lot more comfortable to wear - Sometimes I completely forget I've got them in and end up going to sleep wearing them.
Jennifer Garner
I want my girls to love math. I want them to think that being a scientist is the coolest possible job on the planet. I want them to not be afraid to lean toward their femininity.
Jennifer Garner
I feel lucky, though, because even when 'Alias' was popular, I was still sent scripts against type. I've never felt like the world only sees me one way. But yes, it's been really fun to be bad.
Jennifer Garner
I have this internal battle between, I need to work, I need to work, I need to work and I need to be home with my kids. And the kids win.
Jennifer Garner
Growing up where I did, the thought of working on a television show or in a movie... that existed on a parallel plane, you know?
Jennifer Garner
My mom is a hard worker. She puts her head down and she gets it done. And she finds a way to have fun. She always says, 'Happiness is your own responsibility.' That's probably what I quote from her and live by the most.
Jennifer Garner
I'm privileged, because I have a lot of freedom. I want to use it to make as warm and normal a life as I can for our daughters.
Jennifer Garner
I would roll up pennies to take the subway to work in Times Square. I was broke, but I was happy.
Jennifer Garner
But I'll never be one of those women who feel that they always have to wear earrings and aren't properly dressed without them.
Jennifer Garner
I do think about aging. I have those moments of panic and vanity, but life keeps getting better, so you can't worry about it too much.
Jennifer Garner
I am not pregnant, but I've had three kids, and there is a 'bump.' From now on, ladies, I will have a 'bump' and it will be my 'baby bump,' and let's just all settle in and get used to it. It's not going anywhere.
Jennifer Garner
