More quotes by Amy Poehler
Great people do things before they’re ready. They do things before they know they can do it.
Amy Poehler
Girls, if a boy says something that isn't funny, you don't have to laugh.
Amy Poehler
Don't treat your heart like an action figure wrapped in plastic and never used.
Amy Poehler
Only at the Golden Globes do the beautiful people of film rub shoulders with the rat-faced people in television.
Amy Poehler
Adventure and danger can be good for your heart and soul.
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
Nobody looks stupid when they are having fun.
Amy Poehler
Talented men are not threatened by talented women. They welcome them. And same way with real men.
Amy Poehler
I hate Halloween. I hate dressing up. I hate - I wear wigs, makeup, costumes every day. Halloween is like, my least favorite holiday.
Amy Poehler
There's something so romantic about being broke in New York. You gotta do it. You have to live there once without any money, and then you have to live there when you have money. Let me tell you, of the two, the latter is far better.
Amy Poehler
I've always dreamed of growing up to be Amy Poehler.
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
Listen. Say yes. Live in the moment. Make sure you play with people who have your back. Make big choices early and often.
Amy Poehler
Don't treat your heart like an action figure wrapped in plastic and never used. And don't try to give me that nerd argument that your heart is a 'Batman' with a limited-edition silver bat-erang and therefore if it stays in its original packing it increases in value.
Amy Poehler
The pressure of 'what are you going to do?' makes everyone feel like they haven't done anything yet.
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
Shame makes people abandon their children and drink themselves to death. It also keeps us from true happiness. An apology is a glorious release.
Amy Poehler
It’s never overreacting to ask for what you want and need.
Amy Poehler
Find a group of people who challenge and inspire you, spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life.
Amy Poehler
Being snubbed is not always a bad thing at awards shows because you end up getting a lot of people coming up to you and telling you how great you are.
Amy Poehler
