More quotes by Amber Tamblyn
I think I relate to all the characters in one way or another. I'm a chameleon like that
Amber Tamblyn
My father comes from a generation of film that actors my age don't even know about, which is really sad.
Amber Tamblyn
And a lot of times in slam poetry I feel like people are so worried about the performance that the words might not be as strong.
Amber Tamblyn
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.
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
I haven't had a lot of celebrities around me growing up.
Amber Tamblyn
After I saw my first poem published, I became interested in the immortalization of words and the fact that you could put something out there that you felt and that meant something to you, and that it could be interpreted by many different people to mean many different things.
Amber Tamblyn
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.
Amber Tamblyn
My parents cultured me a lot and they introduced me to a lot of artists, a lot of their friends.
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
This will be the fourth time I've seen this film. I'm very proud of it and I think it's a great movie for women of any age. And almost every single man I've talked to has admitted to crying.
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.
Amber Tamblyn
I could never say that one religion is wrong. I could never say that this person's God is wrong, I could never say that someone is wrong because they don't believe in God
Amber Tamblyn
I have never reached certain levels of fame, like Lindsay Lohan did, or even Brittany Murphy. My career has always been this sort of even-keeled, steady existence. I was also raised by poets, and I've been doing poetry as long as I've been acting.
Amber Tamblyn
I think any time you have too much education in one certain field, that can sometimes play against you
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
If it comes back, I think that Friday night is not a good night to be on.
Amber Tamblyn
IF YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING THAT TERRIFIES YOU, MOST LIKELY YOU'RE DOING THE RIGHT THING.
Amber Tamblyn
I think it's hard to be taken seriously as a poet, period.
Amber Tamblyn
My own personal connection with God was not in a religious sense, so I wasn't really thinking in that way when I got the role and when I started doing it.
