Tina Fey
Whenever you see me, I'm on antique quaaludes.
Tina Fey
It has been said that to write is to live forever. The man who said that is dead.
Tina Fey

Tina Fey
Confidence is 10 percent hard work and 90 percent delusion.
Tina Fey

Tina Fey
It's like being a little kid again, parading around in a nightgown tucked into your underpants, believing it looks terrific.
Tina Fey
Gay people don’t actually try to convert people. That’s Jehovah’s Witnesses you’re thinking of.
Tina Fey
Trying to be a leader in a sort of very atypical workplace like 'Saturday Night Live' forces you to realize that no one wants you to be their leader. If you can help them get their thing on TV or whatever, they want that. But no adult is looking for a role model.
