More quotes by Amy Poehler
Everyone needs love, never hurt a living thing [and] don’t worry about the choices you make because everything will be fun because life is a closet filled with pool toys.
Amy Poehler
I've grown tired of smoke and mirrors. I yearn for the clean, well-lighted place.
Amy Poehler
Sleep and I do not have a good relationship. We have never been good friends. I am constantly chasing sleep and then pushing it away. A good night's sleep is my white whale. Like Ahab, I am also a total drama queen about it. I love to talk about how little sleep I get. I brag about it, as if it is a true indication of how hard I work.
Amy Poehler
Reading was a way to make friends or enemies, a way to discover how all these different people exist in the world and to rub shoulders with them. The ability to feel as if you have met someone, as if that person exists in flesh and blood and that you relate to them somehow, makes you feel a lot less lonely. And it also makes you feel very brave.
Amy Poehler
The minute anyone makes you feel weird and non-included or not supported, you know, either beat it or tell them to beat it.
Amy Poehler
We [with Les Charles] started talking about hotel stories, and we found that a lot of the action was happening in the hotel bar. We actually thought of that while we were in a bar: Why would anyone ever leave here?
Amy Poehler
We have to agree beforehand to divide the funniest lines between us. But Tina [Fey] is so brilliant that I just love every moment working with her and also just hanging out together as friends.
Amy Poehler
I used to say that I wanted to make great art with people I love. Now I have an addendum to that goal: to get things on the air.
Amy Poehler
It's nice to be short, because people expect less from you.
Amy Poehler
I think if I have established anything in my book, it's that a key element of being my friend is being comfortable with my forced fun.
Amy Poehler
Forgiveness is something that's always possibility.
Amy Poehler
Continue to share your heart with people even if it's been broken.
Amy Poehler
In my twenties I tried cocaine, which I instantly loved but eventually hated. Cocaine is terrific if you want to hang out with people you don't know very well and play Ping-Pong all night. It's bad for almost everything else.
Amy Poehler
The process of divorce is about loading that blanket, throwing it up, watching it all spin, and worrying what stuff will break when it lands.
Amy Poehler
I'd say any good set or any comedy that I've worked on, that's worked, has been comedians pitching ideas back and forth to each other. A lot of like, 'What if you say this? What about this?'
Amy Poehler
Most authors liken the struggle of writing to something mighty and macho, like wrestling a bear. Writing a book is nothing like that. It is a small, slow crawl to the finish line. Honestly, I have moments when I don't even care if anyone reads this book. I just want to finish it.
Amy Poehler
You never know what's around the corner unless you peek. Hold someone's hand while you do it. You will feel less scared.
Amy Poehler
Rooting for other people's failure does get in the way of your success.
Amy Poehler
I'd like to think that I don't have a stock character that I go to. I'm lucky in that when you get to initiate your own scene, you get to play whoever you want. That's really kind of cool, but all my characters are short. I look on the videotape, and I thought they were taller, but they're all 5'2.
Amy Poehler
Try to keep your mind open to possibilities and your mouth closed on matters that you don't know about. Limit your 'always' and your 'nevers.'
Amy Poehler
