More quotes by Amber Tamblyn
I think at the end of the day this movie is respecting what we as women go through as we grow up. The experiences, what we deal with, other women, things about images, things that we deal with as women. This movie addresses that in a very appropriate and sincere way.

I think we, especially in American culture, are so afraid to talk about death. And I'm not talking about literal death. I'm talking about shedding skin. I'm talking about rebirth, ultimately, and how we continue to change as human beings and continue to grow. There's that great Henry Miller quote, All growth is a leap in the dark.

Feminism? The word itself means exactly the same thing to me as the word God does - it's a spirituality that is deeply personal, deeply subjective, and deeply no one else's business. You can identify the word however you want, it's just the non-exploration of it that is unacceptable to me.

My father comes from a generation of film that actors my age don't even know about, which is really sad.

I think any time you have too much education in one certain field, that can sometimes play against you

Aubrey obviously plays Karen's, Sarah Michelle Gellar's, younger sister. And, um, she's sort of always been the underdog in the family and somebody who is not as ambitious or driven as her sister, as Karen's character, so she's sort of always felt like she's had to follow in her sister's footsteps.
Amber Tamblyn
Just because you grow up in the public eye doesn't mean that you're immune to the same sort of issues and feelings that any other woman would go through.

People who have seen me read usually come up afterwards and invite me to be a part of something.
Amber Tamblyn
I have tons of jewelry. I like to wear a lot of it
Amber Tamblyn
Other people like Neil Young and Dennis Hopper, those are just really close knit family friends.
Amber Tamblyn
I liked the humor of it, I've always enjoyed a sense of humor in God and in religion and in spirituality
Amber Tamblyn
A lot of young poets today, from what I've heard and experienced, can't get their heads past George W. Bush, and I've heard so many poems about this democracy and this era of politics that I'm kind of bored by it
Amber Tamblyn
Honestly, I am not trying to discourage anyone from becoming an actress, but if you want to become one be prepared to face everything that comes - along with it
Amber Tamblyn
A lot of people think I'm cynical when I talk about acting. The truth of the matter is, I just don't want someone to get some lame advice that will send them in the wrong direction
Amber Tamblyn
But I didn't even see God in the show as being very spiritual, I see him or her, it, as being something that is just relevant and very important in her life.
Amber Tamblyn
One of my good friends is Christian, goes to church every Sunday, very religious. I'm fine with that and I will never judge her.

When people ask me what I do for a living, I always say, I get rejected for a living. And that's true.
