Sarah Michelle Gellar

“It's really beautiful. But you know, fancy footwear is a pain!”

“When you've played Buffy - who's such a strong female role model - it's really hard for another female character to compare to her.”

“It used to be only on TV that women could lead, that a show could be based on a woman.”

“There's a part of me that will always believe that Angel is Buffy's true love. That there will be a piece of her heart that will always be with him for the rest of her life.”

“Well, that's the old story I heard about the Jackie Chan films. That, like, Jackie Chan will just keep going and when crew members drop he just replaces them. I don't know if that's true but after having worked in Japan I believe it might be true.”

“Just because you donate sperm does not make you a father. I don't have a father. I would never give him the credit or acknowledge him as my father.”

“And I don't know what I'd do at a fraternity party. All that might be a little lost on me.”

“I think that this industry in particular is so fast-paced that you keep saying, 'I'll take vacation later.' Sometimes later never comes. I'm definitely leading a much slower life now that I'm not working every single day on a television series.”

“I don't understand why James Bond has to be a man all the time. When Pierce Brosnan retires, why not one of us?”

“I've always been fascinated by Asian culture, and I love that women can play the lead in a horror film.”

“Ultimately you want to do something in life that people will remember. And with Buffy, I did that. I don't feel like I need to achieve something. I just do it because it's fun. And that takes the pressure off.”

“I also think it was important for me and Freddie to be able to have a lot of time to share our lives at the beginning of our marriage rather than my coming home at 9 or 10 at night from the set. Things have really worked out for the best for both of us.”

“As with anything, you need to keep your creative juices flowing and keep the character interesting.”

“Buffy's very similar to me to me when I was growing up. A child in an adult world, sort of trapped between the two. Does Buffy go to the prom or does she save the world from demons?”

“I wouldn't change Buffy for anything and I wouldn't change the course in which she has evolved but it is nice to be able to do something that is a little different.”

“Everything I am is because of my mom.”

“I think it's a mistake if people just fall in love and think that that's the only thing you need to keep you happy. There's a lot more to being with someone than just love.”

“Because Buffy really has become the straight man, every once in a while it's nice to be the one that tells the joke and it's nice to be the one that is the joke and it's nice to do something that's a little bit different.”

“Ringer is the perfect balance of what audiences want ot see me do. It's Cruel Intentions meets Buffy.”

“I actually go to the gym much more now than I did when I was on Buffy. I like to stay fit, because that's when I feel really healthy. But I never worked out for any kind of image. People have said to me, 'Do you starve yourself before photo shoots?' And I always say, 'No way.! That's what airbrushing is for. I had french fries last night.'”
