“It's so funny, because right now I'm very tired and my brains a little...” — Gillian Anderson Quote

It's so funny, because right now I'm very tired and my brains a little dead, I tend to get very focused and serious. So, I'm probably coming off a lot more like Scully right now.

I didn't pay as much attention in school as I would have liked to.

The first time, where Fox Mulder and Scully met, she stands up for herself. She stands right there and gives it to him and that was extremely attractive.

I can goof around with other people right up to when we shoot.

I have a real problem with stillness. With just stopping and being quiet.

I think Detroit is where muscle meets brains.

With the acting, it's somebody else's brainchild, and I'm just sort of helping flesh it out. There's a special satisfaction to being the brains behind the operation.

I think more from my heart. My brains don't work as much.

It's my belief that you can take everyone down a logical path if you take them slowly enough, and the trouble is that mathematical brains can get scrambled a little bit on the way. You get a bad teacher, it messes you up for the rest of the journey.

You have your brains, but it's energy and desire that make you write a book.
