Timothy Simons’s 5 most popular quotes
- It’s a funny thing, I think people meet us and they assume that we know a lot more about politics than we actually do. People will really get into it. I’m like, I don’t really know a lot about tariff reform or export trade reform. That’s really not something I know about.
- Donald Trump is so universally despised, because he so often says the wrong thing and has absolutely no moral code outside of just wanting to be powerful and influential.
- If an actor ever says they really enjoy the auditioning process, I truly believe that they’re lying. It’s an anxiety-filled waking nightmare. It’s awful.
- I was a terrible high school student outside of the fact that I did well in physics, but there’s a big difference between being good at physics and being a physicist, so I jettisoned that very quickly.
- It’s weird to have to look at another co-worker and have a silent discussion – any discussion – about how you are going to touch their genitals or allow them to touch your genitals.
