More quotes by Amy Poehler
Fighting aging is like the War on Drugs. It's expensive, does more harm than good, and has been proven to never end.
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
If boys say something that's not funny, you don't have to laugh.
Amy Poehler
I'm going to do 'The Social Network Two: The Electric Boogaloo.' And I have a part in 'Beige Swan.' I'm going to be the lead, but I don't dance. I just do a lot of sitting down. It's too tiring to get up and dance around. That should be coming out in 20-never.
Amy Poehler
I don't think a man who is fifteen years younger than me should tell me he is proud of me unless he is my sober coach or my time-travel dad.
Amy Poehler
I just want to help other women achieve as much as they can in society without restraints being imposed on us. It's the most natural and normal thing to want to defend your rights to equal opportunities, equal pay for equal work, and everything that comes with that.

Amy Poehler

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
I want to be around people who dream and support and do things.
Amy Poehler
Because of various security lapses, some senators are calling for a probe of the security at the offices of the Department of Homeland Security. The investigation will be conducted by the Department of Irony.
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
Stop whining about getting old. It's a privilege. A lot of people who are dead wish they were still alive.
Amy Poehler
Adventure and danger can be good for your heart and soul.
Amy Poehler
Girls, if a boy says something that isn't funny, you don't have to laugh.
Amy Poehler
I've always dreamed of growing up to be Amy Poehler.
Amy Poehler
Don't start a scene where two people are talking about jumping out of a plane. Start the scene having already jumped. If you are scared, look into your partner's eyes. You will feel better.
Amy Poehler
Anger and embarrassment are often neighbors.
Amy Poehler
I think we should stop asking people in their twenties what they 'want to do' and start asking them what they don't want to do.
Amy Poehler
