More quotes by Amy Poehler
Creativity is connected to your passion, that light inside you that drives you. . . . Your creativity is not a bad boyfriend. It is a really warm older Hispanic lady who has a beautiful laugh and loves to hug.
Amy Poehler
Open-faced sandwiches take risks and live big and smile with all their teeth. These are the people I want to be around.
Amy Poehler
I've said this before, that, when you're in school and you're the class clown, men are really good at making fun at other people and women are really good at making fun of themselves.
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
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
Well, the first thing we do is take our brain out and put it in a drawer. Stick it somewhere and let it tantrum until it wears itself out. You may still hear the brain and all the shitty things it is saying to you, but it will be muffled, and just the fact that it is not in your head anymore will make things seem clearer. And then you just do it.
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
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
If the goal is doing good stuff and working with your friends ... if you’re doing that then you’re succeeding.
Amy Poehler
I love my boys so much I fear my heart will explode. I wonder if this love will crack open my chest and split me in half. It is scary, this love.
Amy Poehler
Just breathe. Sometimes you're only a few breaths away from feeling better.
Amy Poehler
I want to be around people who dream and support and do things.
Amy Poehler
Most authors liken the struggle of writing to something mighty and macho, like wrestling a bear. Writing a book is nothing like that. It is a small, slow crawl to the finish line. Honestly, I have moments when I don't even care if anyone reads this book. I just want to finish it.
Amy Poehler
You learn early as an actor that creating your own material is the only way to have any control.
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
Don't think. Get out of your head. Stop planning and just go.
Amy Poehler
We have to agree beforehand to divide the funniest lines between us. But Tina [Fey] is so brilliant that I just love every moment working with her and also just hanging out together as friends.
Amy Poehler
As an actor, you can certainly, at any moment and at any time, discover 400 people who think you're stupid, fat and ugly.
Amy Poehler
I really do believe that anything in life - any obstacle or challenge - can be made better with humor.
Amy Poehler
I get worried for young girls sometimes I want them to feel that they can be sassy and full and weird and geeky and smart and independent, and not so withered and shriveled.
Amy Poehler
