| Geena Davis QUOTES / QUOTATIONS |
A woman as the leader of the Free World is an impossibility. Muslim countries won't talk to you.
Quotation of Geena Davis

Archers are pretty focused.
Quotation of Geena Davis

Archery is something that I took up later and didn't know I had a natural aptitude for.
Quotation of Geena Davis
|
As an Independent, she has no party backing... Her being the first Independent president trumps the fact that she's a woman. It causes even more upheaval in Washington than her being female.

I competed in the high jump in high school, but I wasn't very good. My technique was to stand around looking intimidating because I was so tall.
Quotation of Geena Davis
|
I have a Web site that parents and girls can use to learn about Title IX and take action if they find their school is not in compliance. Thirty years after Title IX passed, 80 percent of schools are not in compliance.
Quotation of Geena Davis

I have an elbow that bends the wrong way, and I'd do things like stand in an elevator and the doors would close, and I'd pretend that my arm had got caught in it, and then I'd scream, 'Ow, ow, put it back!'

I haven't ever gone to any Mensa meetings.
Quotation of Geena Davis

I just read that 81 percent of Americans are ready to vote for a woman. So it sounds like America is ready.
Quotation of Geena Davis
|
I played this character twice in live action, and now I've become an animated character. It was actually fun to see myself drawn - I've never been a drawn character before.
Quotation of Geena Davis
|
I've always looked up to him, even though he is shorter.
Quotation of Geena Davis
|
If you risk nothing, then you risk everything.
Quotation of Geena Davis
|
It's a fantasy that we could have a president who could actually make choices based on what's right, rather than having to weigh the political fallout. But that's sort of what we're showing. And you can dream.
Quotation of Geena Davis
|
It's really important for boys to see that girls take up half of the planet - which we do.
Quotation of Geena Davis
|
Look at the number of cop shows and lawyer shows and forensics shows... I think there could be room for two quite different examinations of the same political office.
Quotation of Geena Davis
|
People want you to satisfy every possible dream or expectation they would have for a woman president... We still live at a time when a female president is controversial - even though it seems so bizarre that we've made it to the 21st century excluding half of the potential talent pool.

Rosie knows how to play ball. She's an athlete, for sure.
Quotation of Geena Davis
|
So many other countries have had female leaders, in fact the U.S. ranks 61st in female representation in government and I think it is startling and sign of a change that needs to be made.

Something's like crossed over in me and I can't go back. I couldn't live.
Quotation of Geena Davis

This dapper little mouse that wore such cute clothes and said such interesting things, yeah. I thought it was a great idea to have a mouse like that in your family, so now I get to see what it was like.
Quotation of Geena Davis

We're making this as entertainment. But God willing, if this show stays on and people see a woman in that office for a while, I think it will help people become more used to it. It's certainly about time that we had a few female presidents.
Quotation of Geena Davis
|
We're showing kids a world that is very scantily populated with women and female characters. They should see female characters taking up half the planet, which we do.
Quotation of Geena Davis
|
When I saw archery, which I had never really looked at before, I wondered if it needed some of the same skills as pistol shooting.
Quotation of Geena Davis
|
When my friends and I would act out movies as kids, we'd play the guys' roles, since they had the most interesting things to do. Decades later, I can hardly believe my sons and daughter are seeing many of the same limited choices in current films.
