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.

Image
Being an actress hasn't made me insecure. I was insecure long before I declared I was an actress.
Amy Adams
Image
That's how I prepare for anything - I read whatever I can get my hands on, talk to people. I'm a bit of a nerd like that.

Image
I'm really good at gymnastics, and that's about it.

Image
I saw some musicals at dinner theaters where I grew up. But I didn’t go to a big theater to see one until probably after I graduated from high school when I took myself to see Tommy when it was on tour. I absolutely loved it.

Image
I have a hard time articulating the emotional experience of working on a film. Even when I have meetings on films or discussing them with directors, I find that’s my biggest challenge. Different words mean different things to people.

Image
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.

I always want to defeat supervillains - it's just the chicken-and-broccoli diet that I'm not into.

Image
I grew up as a Mormon, and that had more of an impact on my values than my beliefs. I'm afraid I will always feel the weight of a lie. I'm very hard on myself anyway. Religious guilt carries over too. You can't really misbehave without feeling badly about it. At least, I can't.

Image
Falling in love is a crazy thing to do. It's kind of like a form of socially acceptable insanity.
Amy Adams
Image
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.

How I work is I work from of very character-driven place. And I trust the writers.
Amy Adams
Image
I've always been really comfortable around athletics, I've just never been comfortable playing anything.
Amy Adams
Image
A man who's powerful and strong yet is able to show tenderness and vulnerability, that's really sexy.
Amy Adams
Image
We’re only here briefly. And while I’m here I want to allow myself joy.
Amy Adams
Image
I was blonde most of my life and I had to dye my hair for a role. I couldn’t believe the difference when I went red. I just felt ‘wow, I’m home’. It’s great. You do something stupid when you’re blonde and you’re dumb. Do something stupid when you’re red and you’re a character.

I'd love to be a diva. But I'd then have to send so many apology notes for my abhorrent behaviour.
Amy Adams
Image
I do believe that you don't have to act like a man to be strong. You can still be feminine.
Amy Adams
Image
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.
