David Duchovny's Quotes

  • I never, ever, ever cook. And I would never eat anything I might cook.
  • I'm half Jewish, half Scottish. It's hard for me to buy anything.
  • Privacy is something I have come to respect. I think when I was younger I wanted to tell everybody everything, because I thought I was so damn interesting. Then I heard the snoring.
  • I've always been overly concerned about what people think which has resulted in a lot of inner turmoil. I try not to give a damn but inside I'm a huge ball of worry.
  • If you're smart, you'll always be humble. You can learn all you want, but there'll always be somebody who's never read a book who'll know twice what you know.
