Sometimes painful things can teach us lessons that we didn't think we needed to know.
Amy Poehler
Continue to share your heart with people even if it's been broken.
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
Don't think. Get out of your head. Stop planning and just go.
Amy Poehler

Amy Poehler
The federal government began investigating allegations of fraud against the Coalition Provisional Authority, a U.S. contractor accused in a bid-rigging operation involving millions of dollars. Asked to comment, a spokesperson for Halliburton said, 'Millions? With an M? That is adorable.'
Amy Poehler
It's nice to be short, because people expect less from you.
Amy Poehler
It’s very hard to have ideas. It’s very hard to put yourself out there, it’s very hard to be vulnerable, but those people who do that are the dreamers, the thinkers and the creators. They are the magic people of the world.
Amy Poehler
If you do a scene and you really like a character in it or a premise in it to write it down and to work on it so that you can have five or six characters that you can pull out in an audition.
Amy Poehler
Calling people 'sweetheart' makes most people enraged.
Amy Poehler
If boys say something that's not funny, you don't have to laugh.
Amy Poehler
Only at the Golden Globes do the beautiful people of film rub shoulders with the rat-faced people in television.
Amy Poehler
We may all host ourselves to death, and if we're all dead who will host our funerals?
Amy Poehler
