Being an actress hasn't made me insecure. I was insecure long before I declared I was an actress.

More quotes by Amy Adams
My job as an actress is to make things work and come up with reasons of my own and not just fill in the blanks for anybody else, you know what I mean?
Amy Adams
I always have directors who are somewhat frustrated because they'll reference a beautifully obscure film from the '50s or '60s or '70s, and I've not seen it.
Amy Adams
I think the kick to doing comedy is just to get in a film with really funny people and let them do their jobs. I find that in most comedies, I'm not the funny one, which works out great.
Amy Adams
I probably never would have been hired on Broadway had I not moved out to LA and pursued acting and film, which is sad really.
Amy Adams
I'm like the luckiest girl in the world. I've gotten to be a princess, I've gotten to work with the Muppets. A lot of my childhood dreams about who I wanted to be when I was a grown-up, I at least get to play them in movies.
Amy Adams
Whitney Houston came in. Someone dared me to do the Gap act on her. You know, the Gap act. So I went up to her like I didn't know who she was, and I said, 'Hi, I just wanted to let you know about our sale items and make sure to check out our new colors'. She looked at me like I was crazy.
Amy Adams
I find that in life all you can do is try to be honest about who you are and how you're feeling, and trust that it will be received in the correct way.
Amy Adams
You're nothing to me until you're everything.
Amy Adams
I find that it's the simple things that remind you of family around the holidays.
Amy Adams
I was a pretty scrappy, tough kid I got in all sorts of fights at school. I defended myself - boys didn't mess with me. But as one of seven children, you have to fight for everything anyway.
Amy Adams
I think a lot of times we don't pay enough attention to people with a positive attitude because we assume they are naive or stupid or unschooled.
Amy Adams
Thirty was a big deal for me. It was the age where I reevaluated everything - how I approached life and how I thought about myself. When I look at my 20s, or when I look at any period in my life, I think about how much time I've wasted trying to find the right man.
Amy Adams
That's always been my philosophy: I try to just be as straightforward as possible, and then I don't really have to question what I said or regret anything.
Amy Adams
When I died my hair red the first time, I felt as if it was what nature intended. I have been accused of being a bit of a spitfire, so in that way, I absolutely live up to the stereotype. The red hair suits my personality. I was a terrible blonde!
Amy Adams
In high school, I was so painfully self-aware that how I thought of myself was probably very different from what other people thought of me. I thought of myself as just painfully awkward and dorky. I had a lot of hair and was kind of weird. I sang a lot in the hallways.
Amy Adams
I didn't get into acting to have a moment, I got into it because of people who've inspired me, like Judi Dench, Holly Hunter, and Jodie Foster.
Amy Adams
Falling in love is a crazy thing to do. It's kind of like a form of socially acceptable insanity.
Amy Adams
Some of these actresses or public personas who are very public about their disciplined diets, more power to them. I just don't see the point. Do you know, the people I love as actresses, I've never, ever sought out pictures of them to see what they look like in a swimsuit.
Amy Adams
Find out who you are & embrace it. It's so much easier to face criticism when you are comfortable in your own skin.
Amy Adams
Anyone who falls in love is a freak. Its like a socially acceptable form of insanity.
Amy Adams
