I like bossy girls. I always have. I like people filled with life.
Amy Poehler
If you are lucky, there is a moment in your life when you have some say as to what your currency is going to be. I decided early on it was not going to be my looks.
Amy Poehler
Make no a complete sentence.
Amy Poehler
Anybody who doesn't make you feel good, kick them to the curb. And the earlier you start in your life, the better.
Amy Poehler
Masters of Sex is the degree I got from Boston College.
Amy Poehler
Hey, guess what? Turns out the free market? Not so free. Wall Street was hit hard Monday when Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy, Merrill Lynch was sold to Bank of America, and insurance giant AIG neared a collapse of its own. Basically, if your commercials air during golf tournaments, you're done.
Amy Poehler
Any time you talk to anyone about something that they love, they're, like, their most beautiful. It's a cool gift to get to talk to people about what they love.
Amy Poehler
I love saying 'yes' and I love saying 'please.' Saying 'yes' doesn't mean I don't know how to say no, and saying 'please' doesn't mean I am waiting for permission. 'Yes please' sounds powerful and concise. It's a response and a request. It is not about being a good girl it is about being a real woman.
Amy Poehler
When you feel scared, hold someone's hand and look into their eyes. And when you feel brave, do the same thing. You are all here because you are smart. And you are brave. And if you add kindness and the ability to change a tire, you almost make up the perfect person.
Amy Poehler
Great people do things before they're ready...You might find out something about yourself that's really special and if you're not good, who cares? You tried something.
Amy Poehler
When you're doing sketch comedy and you're pregnant, it's like wearing a giant sombrero in every sketch.
Amy Poehler
I really do believe that anything in life - any obstacle or challenge - can be made better with humor.
Amy Poehler
It’s never overreacting to ask for what you want and need.
Amy Poehler
Adventure and danger can be good for your heart and soul.
Amy Poehler
Ang Lee's been nominated for best director for Life of Pi, which is what I'm going to call the six weeks after I take this dress off.
Amy Poehler
Always remember your kid’s name. Always remember where you put your kid. Don’t let your kid drive until their feet can reach the pedals. Use the right size diapers…for yourself. And, when in doubt, make funny faces.
Amy Poehler
It likes it when you don’t depend on it. It will reward you every time you don’t act needy. It will chase you if you act like other things (passion, friendship, family, longevity) are more important to you. If your career is a bad boyfriend, it is healthy to remember you can always leave and go sleep with somebody else.
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
You become more attractive when you love yourself. You ATTRACT the right things when you have a sense of who you are.
Amy Poehler
We need to remember what's important in life: friends, waffles, work. Or waffles, friends, work, it doesn't matter. But work is third.
Amy Poehler
