More quotes by Amy Poehler
I have a boyfriend who knows how to settle me. He puts his hand on my chest and tells me boring stories. On one of our first nights together I woke up apologizing for my snoring and he pulled out two earplugs he had worn to bed so he could hear what I was saying.
Amy Poehler
Too often we women try to tackle chaos that is not ours to fix.
Amy Poehler
If you can speak about what you care about to a person you disagree with without denigrating them or insulting them, then you may actually be heard.
Amy Poehler
I ate two waffles, a banana and cereal with blueberries. And that whas between my two breakfasts.
Amy Poehler
If your career is a bad boyfriend, it is healthy to remember you can always leave and go sleep with somebody else.
Amy Poehler
Nice manners are the secret keys to the universe.
Amy Poehler
Calling people 'sweetheart' makes most people enraged.
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
I also think if you're an actor and you can improvise, when you go on an audition and you can improvise you're just a genius. If you can, you know, take a Tide commercial and you can just say one funny line that's not in the commercial they think you're a genius.
Amy Poehler
Some people get in the way of change happening. Some people spend their whole careers thinking they can make a difference. Other people want to do as little as possible to get the day done.
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
I asked people who have already finished books for advice, which is akin to asking a mother with a four-year-old what childbirth is like.
Amy Poehler
Going from crying to laughing that fast and hard happens maybe five times in your life and that extreme right turn is the reason why we are alive, and I believe it extends our life by many years.
Amy Poehler
I had no idea how to get guys to notice me. I still don't. Who cares?
Amy Poehler
It seems a strange thing, but once I was able to get past that kind of self-image problem, I was able to open up in my comedy work and just go all out, take chances, and have fun with the performance aspect of that.
Amy Poehler
I think if I have established anything in my book, it's that a key element of being my friend is being comfortable with my forced fun.
Amy Poehler
Please don't drive drunk, okay? Seriously... But by all means, walk drunk. That looks hilarious. Everyone loves to watch someone act like they are trying to make it to safety during a hurricane.
Amy Poehler
I do not improvise in heels.
Amy Poehler
I get a little itchy if I don't have some control.
Amy Poehler
We don't want to be afraid to make a choice because we're afraid to make a mistake because most decisions aren't final. Feelings change all the time. You can always change your mind and taking risks and making choices is what makes life so exciting because we never know what's going to happen. Every day something new comes our way.
Amy Poehler
