More quotes by 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
Girls have to fight against a lot of the same stuff we did growing up... peer pressure, exploitation, etc. But what worries me the most is this trend that caring about something isn't cool. That it's better to comment on something than to commit to it. That it's so much cooler to be unmotivated and indifferent.
Amy Poehler
Everybody is interesting when they are interested in something.
Amy Poehler
I don't watch a lot of comedy. For relaxation and escape, I watch shows about how people survive bear attacks. Or old episodes of 'Law and Order,' the Benjamin Bratt/Jerry Orbach era.
Amy Poehler
I like the person who commits and goes all in and takes big swings and then maybe fails or looks stupid who jumps and falls down, rather than the person who points at the person who fell, and laughs.
Amy Poehler
Whenever I read stories of people doing huge pranks on set, all I think is, 'These people have too much time on their hands.' Besides, I don't want to make some poor assistant clean up someone's trailer after I've filled it with, say, Cadbury eggs. See? I can't even think of a good prank.
Amy Poehler
I believe great people do things before they are ready.
Amy Poehler
It's interesting that people always want to ask me and a lot of working mothers, how do you do it? And it's like well, just like everybody else. It proves it's a bad question.
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
Telling me to relax or smile when I'm angry is like bringing a birthday cake into an ape sanctuary. You're just asking to get your nose and genitals bitten off.
Amy Poehler
Keep your virginity for as long as you can, until it starts to feel weird to you. Then just get it over with.
Amy Poehler
If I wanted to see Jonah Hill masturbate at a pool party, I'd go to one of Jonah Hill's pool parties.
Amy Poehler
I used to get my hair dyed at a place called Big Hair. It cost $15. They just used straight bleach, so my hair was the color of white lined paper, and my eyebrows looked like they were done with a thick black marker.
Amy Poehler
I cannot stress enough that the answer to life's questions is often in people's faces. Try putting your iPhones down once in a while, and look in people's faces. People's faces will tell you amazing things. Like if they are angry, or nauseous or asleep.
Amy Poehler
Other people are not medicine.
Amy Poehler
Vulnerable people are powerful people. Opening your heart and sharing it means you're going to get so much love in your life. and it's the way to true connection and real purpose and meaning in your life, in my opinion.
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
Be yourself! And then tell us about it! And then let's dance!
Amy Poehler
Improvisation is almost like the retarded cousin in the comedy world. We've been trying forever to get improvisation on TV. It's just like stand-up. It's best when it's just left alone. It doesn't translate always on TV. It's best live.
Amy Poehler
In conclusion, I invite the media to all grow a pair. And if you can't, I will lend you mine.
Amy Poehler
