I liked the humor of it, I've always enjoyed a sense of humor in God and in religion and in spirituality

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
I remember when I first started in the business, I lost a lot of friends. Some were jealous, some were annoyed at the fact that I was an actress.
Amber Tamblyn
And one of my other friends could not believe in God if he came down and tapped her on the shoulder. She's a biologist - a student at UCLA - and I don't judge her either, because I really believe that God is a personal opinion, and only that
Amber Tamblyn
I've been kind of submerged in my own little geographic location for a really long time in Venice Beach
Amber Tamblyn
My parents cultured me a lot and they introduced me to a lot of artists, a lot of their friends.

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

My father comes from a generation of film that actors my age don't even know about, which is really sad.
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 business like acting is 90% luck. You can be a star one minute and out of work the next
Amber Tamblyn
My advice is to make acting your second career choice
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
My parents are artists, so I grew up with my mom having bonfires, seven guitars, and talented musicians and artists around like Jack Hirschman.
Amber Tamblyn
Our show is less about a girl who is doing miracles and more about the domino effect of this girl's life, and how everyone else is affected. Our show seems to be a questioning show as opposed to an action sort of fairy tale.
Amber Tamblyn
I think any time you have too much education in one certain field, that can sometimes play against you
Amber Tamblyn
As someone who was born and raised in Los Angeles, I was really interested in the idea of people who move here to get into the business, and some of them do become famous and then oftentimes they fall out of that fame in very terrible ways.
Amber Tamblyn
I haven't had a lot of celebrities around me growing up.
Amber Tamblyn
If you believe that God put you here to act, then you have to be different. Go into casting offices, with something other girls don't have
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.
