More quotes by Amy Adams
I watched The Muppet Movie obsessively. I can still pretty much say a lot of the lines and do a pretty mean Fozzie Bear.
Amy Adams
The illusion of perfection is an illusion anyway.
Amy Adams
One of my least favorite things about being even remotely recognizable is that I'm not allowed to watch in the same way anymore. You try not to hide from the world because you want to still participate and still be inspired by what's around you.
Amy Adams
How I work is I work from of very character-driven place. And I trust the writers.
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've always really loved action films, but I don't see myself as a superhero girl.
Amy Adams
I was a huge Ann-Margret fan, and I wanted to be like her.
Amy Adams
I was one of seven, and we took a lot of road trips - long road trips. And this was before iPhones and iPads and DVD players in cars. I remember how novel it was when I got my own Walkman so I could listen to music.
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
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
It’s just very homey in Ireland. It’s very comforting and comfortable. There’s lots of fireplaces with fires. It’s just really cozy.
Amy Adams
I like Cinderella - she has a good work ethic and she likes shoes.
Amy Adams
I always want to defeat supervillains - it's just the chicken-and-broccoli diet that I'm not into.
Amy Adams
I love accents - I wish I could find an accent for every one of my characters. It makes it so much easier when I don't have to hear my own voice.
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
I always saw myself as more of a watcher, although I suppose my siblings might have a different viewpoint on it.
Amy Adams
It's always challenging when you're shooting a film. Shooting things out of order and keeping continuity on all levels is always for me the most challenging thing.
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
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've always been really comfortable around athletics, I've just never been comfortable playing anything.
