Sarah Michelle Gellar Quotes:
  • "I've always been the nerdy, geekish outsider who still remembers how a lot of my classmates used to torture me. Buffy made me a stronger person. Growing up, I always felt different from other kids and they would always tease me about my work in commercials or TV as a way of putting me down. All the success that the series - Buffy - has enjoyed has erased a lot of self-doubts that I grew up with. I don't feel like the nerd or the loser any more."
  • "It was a great kiss. It even had a saliva trail." [on her kiss with Selma Blair in Cruel Intentions]
  • "It's been hard to be a show in L.A. and be trendsetting, because the fashions are in New York... Not to mention that most actresses are all, give or take, the same size, between five-two and five-five, and 95 to 125 pounds."
  • "People tell me not to do a soap, but it was a great learning experience because I became familiar with the technical aspects of the business. Besides, look who came out of soaps - Julianne Moore, Demi Moore, Tommy Lee Jones, Parker Posey, Kathleen Turner. All amazing people."
  • "It's important for me to go out on top. I don't want to be part of a show that runs eight years only to have people say of it, that should have ended years ago." (about her series, BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER)
