More quotes by Amy Adams
I tend to be really pragmatic, but ultimately tend to be attracted to people who pull me into more spontaneity. I've really learned that, through surrender, the best experiences of my life have happened.
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
I still think I'm like the poor girl from Colorado who worked three jobs to buy a car. That's still my mentality, so I'll be walking down the street, and I forget what I do and who I am.
Amy Adams
Being pregnant finally helped me understand what my true relationship was with my body - meaning that it wasn't put on this earth to look good in a swimsuit. I was like, 'Look, I can carry a baby! I'm gaining weight right, everything's going well.' And I've had that relationship ever since.
Amy Adams
I had an existential crisis at the Oscars, sitting next to Sean Penn and Meryl Streep, and being like, 'What am I doing here? I don't belong here'. I felt like it could all be taken away.

A man who's powerful and strong yet is able to show tenderness and vulnerability, that's really sexy.
Amy Adams
I can be very polite, and I think that people can confuse that for all sorts of things... But I'll take that over people assuming that I'm smart just because I'm short and rude.
Amy Adams
Perfect isn't normal, nor is it interesting. I have no features without makeup. I am pale. I have blond lashes. You could just paint my face - it's like a blank canvas. It can be great for what I do.
Amy Adams
I was the dork in high school who sang musical numbers up and down the hallways.
Amy Adams
Moving out to L.A. for me was a leap of faith. I was very secure in my dinner theater world I loved it, and I was just like, 'I think there's something else out there for me and I just have to go for it.'
Amy Adams
If I had a project that I had auditioned for and I was getting close to getting it, I didn't want to tell anybody because I thought then I wouldn't get it, but in reality that really had no bearing on whether or not I got a part.
Amy Adams
I come from musical theater, and a lot of musical theater is about accepting fantasy. I think it is more about just being open and accepting.
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
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've always really loved action films, but I don't see myself as a superhero girl.
Amy Adams
We’re only here briefly. And while I’m here I want to allow myself joy.
