I really like writing from real-life experiences. Audiences seem to prefer the stuff I couldn't have made up.

Work hard to achieve integrity in your work and your relationships with the people you work with.

I've got a swimming pool and I pretend to be like a mermaid, like in the middle of the night. It kind of de-stresses me.

There are so many glamorous actresses, but you know what? In the real world, nobody looks like that.

Been sitting at home all weekend writing for MTV Movie Awards - unfortunately MTV won't let me do my strip routine ala Magic Mike.

Even when I'm playing someone named 'Fat Amy.' I'm all about confidence and attitude.

As a kid, I never thought I'd be an actress. Never, ever, ever, no way. I was really shy - bordering on social disorder shy - and I was really academic.

For a comedienne, you have to have a little tragedy or a dark side, just not too much. Otherwise it's too disruptive.

I stay fat because it just wouldn't be fair to all the thin people if I were this good-looking, intelligent, funny, and thin. It's a public service really.

At school, nobody thought I was smart and I became smart. Nobody wanted to be my friend and then I had lots of friends.

Doubt thou the stars are fire Doubt thou the sun doth moveDoubt truth to be a liar But never doubt I love

Every day brings a chance for you to draw in a breath, kick off your shoes, and dance.

It's fun to be creative and innovative and come up with something crazy. So I need people to work with who are not going to be afraid to take it to the left a bit.

I've been obsessed with Michael B. Jordan since The Wire. He's so charismatic and talented. It'd be even better—we'd have interracial bisexuality!

I don't have to figure out why or how or when. God has a plan, and I'm committed to it. That commitment frees me from having to worry about the details.

I think it's interesting that cologne rhymes with alone.

It's when I am fully conscious that I ask questions.

Lenny Breau dazzled me with his extraordinary guitar playing... I wish the world had the opportunity to experience his artistry.

There is false humility and genuine humility and between them, there is a desire of the practitioner to become humble.

Sometimes we don't appreciate Prayer until we have to go through something!
