The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Alex Borstein

  • My dad was raised Orthodox in Atlanta. He speaks Hebrew. He speaks Yiddish. He married a Jewish woman who is not Orthodox, so I was brought up by two different kinds of Jews.
  • I’m terrible at learning lines. I’m good at learning lines when I don’t have to be word-perfect.
  • Amy Sherman-Palladino is very funny. She’s got just natural timing and comedic instinct. And she writes in a comedic rhythm.
  • If you believe in romance, and if you believe in marriage, you also have to believe in divorce. It’s like, with ‘Getting On,’ a lot of people say, ‘I don’t want to watch that. It’s so dark.’ But you can’t just want to go to weddings and children’s birthday parties. You’ve got to witness it all.
  • I have no point in my system or morals where I say, ‘This is too far.’
  • I think I was born because my parents had two boys and wanted to give it one more go and try for a girl… they got me instead.
  • People who have picture-perfect upbringings and lives tend not to be funny. I don’t think they write from a position of pain.
  • Losing my grandmother was one of the hardest things I ever had to go through.
  • Stand-up’s hard. It’s one of the hardest things in the world, and it’s really lonely.
  • My uncle is a hemophiliac, and my brother is one as well. I am a carrier, and it’s a disease that my kids also deal with. It’s something that has affected my family and I for so long, and I think it’s actually what drove me to comedy as a means to cope during tough times.
