You must not look in that mirror at your doughy legs and flat feet, for today is about dreams and illusions, and unfiltered natural daylight is the enemy of dreams.

One of the great things about doing animated movies is that you don't have to dress up or put on make-up.

I went through a phase where I was sick of acting, I didn't want to do it anymore, I was bored with it and then I tried directing a movie and I was like: Shoot, get back over there! It made me appreciate acting more.

When I turned 50, I looked in the mirror and I thought: Hey, this isn't the dress rehearsal, this is life and I don't know how much longer I'm going to have!

Sometimes you want to have a very productive Saturday to feel that you are in control of your life, which of course you are not.

Image
Instead of trying to fit an impossible ideal, I took a personal inventory of all my healthy body parts for which I am grateful: Straight Greek eyebrows. They start at the hairline at my temple and, left unchecked, will grow straight across my face and onto yours.

...nothing is creepier than a bunch of adults being very quiet.
Tina Fey
Image
I think part of picking where you live in New York is accepting who you are. Really looking at yourself and going, 'Yeah, I'm not cool enough for the West Village.'
Tina Fey
Image
I had a gentleman in college tell me, during a date, that I could be really pretty if I lost some weight. On a date!

I never dreamed I would receive the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor, mostly because my style is so typically Austrian.

If a bout of creepy face sets in, the trick is to look away from the camera between shots and turn back only when necessary. This also limits how much of your soul the camera can steal.

My parents raised me that you never ask people about their reproductive plans. “You don’t know their situation,” my mom would say. I considered it such an impolite question that for years I didn’t even ask myself. Thirty-five turned into forty faster than McDonald’s food turns into cold nonfood.

Television is a runaway train that you have to get on for nine months of the year. But at the same time, it has a wonderful immediacy.

Don’t waste your energy trying to educate or change opinions go over, under, through, and opinions will change organically when you’re the boss. Or they won’t. Who cares? Do your thing, and don’t care if they like it.

You're not in competition with other women. You're in competition with everyone.
