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.

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

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.

I never thought I would end up being an actress. I thought I really was going to do serious stuff like law or politics.

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

When I was younger I did karate and martial arts, and I think it's really cool for girls to have those kinds of abilities.

You are that one breath. that puts all the remaining breaths. back into my body.

Human has no experience at all aboutliving in a peaceful world without war.

The light in my soul is inextinguishable.

Failure isn't failure if a lesson from it's learned. I guess love would not be love without a risk of being burned.

All the support from all my friends, All my family over the years, I appreciate it.

Comedy is a noble art.

When you start being enthusiastic about whatever it is you like, that is the golden age for you.

And wonder, dread and war have lingered in that land where loss and love in turn have held the upper hand.

If you constantly dwell on the past that's where you end up living.

There's nothing the world loves more than a ready-made description which they can hang on to a man, and so save themselves all trouble in future.
