More quotes by Tina Fey
I had my hair in a ponytail and looked my trademark exhausted.
Tina Fey
Admission is Paul Weitz's movie. This is Karen Croner - the screenwriter's - movie. To have such a lovely role in such a beautifully written script offered to me, it's like elves made the shoes.
Tina Fey
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.
Tina Fey
Photoshop is just like makeup. When it’s done well it looks great, and when it’s overdone you look like a crazy asshole.
Tina Fey
In Afghanistan this week, outnumbered Northern Alliance rebels on horseback defeated Taliban forces armed with tanks. Experts say the victory is just like the story of David and Goliath and David's friend, the Stealth Bomber.
Tina Fey
When I first set out to ruin SNL, I didn't think anyone would notice, but I persevered because - like you trying to do a nine-piece jigsaw puzzle - it was a labour of love.
Tina Fey
...nothing is creepier than a bunch of adults being very quiet.
Tina Fey
A new poll showed that 66% of Americans think President Bush is doing a poor job handling the war in Iraq and the remaining 34% think that Adam and Eve rode dinosaurs to church.
Tina Fey
Whatever the problem, be part of the solution. Don’t just sit around raising questions and pointing out obstacles.
Tina Fey
I was like, oh, I want to sign up for Catwoman, and then Anne Hathaway had already signed up for it.
Tina Fey
It will never be perfect, but perfect is overrated. Perfect is boring on live TV.
Tina Fey
My problem with the traditional acting method was that I never understood what you were supposed to be thinking about when you're onstage.
Tina Fey
I'm not that good looking... nobody is that good looking. I have seen a lot of movie stars, and maybe four are amazing looking. The rest have a team of gay guys who make it happen.
Tina Fey
Finally the world would see my full range of comedy characters - from grouchy librarian to Russian librarian.
Tina Fey
This requires a level of delusion/egomania usually reserved for popes and drag queens
Tina Fey
You don't just decide to destroy a person by making up stuff, and no one at 'SNL' is writing to go after someone.
Tina Fey
The upsides of acting in things is mostly getting your hair done and having people give you clothes. So as long as you can have a little bit of that in your life, then it's just as delightful to be behind camera.
Tina Fey
I have two daughters, and we live here in Manhattan, and having gone through the Manhattan kindergarten application process, nothing will ever rival the stress of that.
Tina Fey
Politics and prostitution have to be the only jobs where inexperience is considered a virtue. In what other profession would you brag about not knowing stuff? “I’m not one of those fancy Harvard heart surgeons. I’m just an unlicensed plumber with a dream and I’d like to cut your chest open.” The crowd cheers.
Tina Fey
...I can't possibly take time off for a second baby, unless I do, in which case that is nobody's business and I'll never regret it for a moment unless it ruins my life.
