It's too scary in television. It's scary to sign a six-year contract for something that you don't necessarily know about.

More quotes by Lizzy Caplan
I wanted to see myself as something different, and I wanted to convince people that I was capable of something other than what they would expect from me.
Lizzy Caplan
I think it's necessary to identify with anything - with any character you play, there's got to be something in common, so you can link up to that person, even if it's like one tiny thing. But it's equally fun to play somebody completely different, and trying to find what that thing is to make it.

I never get recognized for 'Mean Girls.' I can be walking around with Daniel Franzese, who's in the movie and a friend of mine, and people will come up to him and start freaking out and have no idea who I am.
Lizzy Caplan
Everybody hangs out with everybody, which is very strange for a cast this large and this young. We're all cool and down to earth and not caught up in this maniacal business at all.... Everybody really, really likes everybody else.
Lizzy Caplan
There's definitely a luxury to the fluidity of not being a mega-star. I've done a ton of really, really odd, off-the-wall movies. There's this movie I did called 'Queens of Country' a couple of summers ago that is so bananas, and if I was at a certain level, I probably would not have done that movie.

It's refreshing, honestly, to be able to have more intellectual conversations about sex and the meaning of sex, and intimacy and what that means in relationships. As a person in the world, it's on your mind. It's a part of your life, after a certain age until you're dead. So, to be able to examine it in a different way is really fulfilling.

Don't peak in high school.
Lizzy Caplan
I don't think you should be allowed to eat in a restaurant if you haven't waited tables at least once. It's so irritating when I see people being rude to waiters, like, it makes me want to slit their throats! Like, really? You're really this inconsiderate?
Lizzy Caplan
If you meet a girl who has slept with 100 guys, you will think something of her you wouldn't think of a guy who slept with 100 girls.
Lizzy Caplan
I become an actress to do things that scare the sh*t out of me and I felt like I didn't stand a chance to get this part because people have preconceived notions about me, but if they gave me the part, I would do everything in my power to not screw it up.
Lizzy Caplan
None of my friends are in the entertainment industry.
Lizzy Caplan
When you get seen in one particular way, it can be paralyzing. You start to believe it's all you can do.
Lizzy Caplan
You'd be surprised. Girls like sensitive, namby-pamby guys.

I was a Russian dancer in my elementary school production of Fiddler on the Roof when I was in third grade or fourth grade. I was one of the younger kids accepted into the play, and the plays were pretty impressive, let me say.
Lizzy Caplan
In fact, the first time I ever got naked on TV was the biggest confidence booster of my life.
Lizzy Caplan
I feel lucky because most of my friends aren't married. So I don't feel that, 'oh, step on it, you're thirty.'
Lizzy Caplan
I've been a feminist since the day I was born. I wanted to play football. I didn't want to play with dolls I wanted to play with boys and didn't understand why I couldn't.
Lizzy Caplan
There is a certain expectation of girls to eventually grow up and behave and fall in line. I've always bucked against that.
Lizzy Caplan
If I was on Game of Thrones, I think the nudity and sex questions would probably get irritating, but this is a show about sex.
Lizzy Caplan
I really unfortunately don't have tons of hilarious Sundance stories, because really I am not the biggest fan of hanging out, but the reason why is because I never go see other people's movies and I think that's the way to do it.
