More quotes by Amy Sedaris
That's how all theater should be done - you only have one chance to see it and then it's gone. One night only.
Amy Sedaris
I always find something to keep me busy.
Amy Sedaris
My characters always like themselves.
Amy Sedaris
I can't imagine going to an all-girls school. I went to a public school.
Amy Sedaris
It's natural for humans to suppress urges, for when our desires are left unchecked they lead to broken relationships, prison time, and forest fires.
Amy Sedaris
But I love how people who are musical, they know how to dress.
Amy Sedaris
You know when you watch old movies, it's always the small parts you remember, the character actors who come in like a breath of fresh air.
Amy Sedaris
Sometimes it's just enough for me to have the idea. I don't need to see it through to the end. When it actually happens, I'm always disappointed because it's never like what I imagined in my head. When an idea becomes a reality, then it's a job. I'd rather just think about it.
Amy Sedaris
We're all used to seeing pretty people. I want to see real people.
Amy Sedaris
I cried when I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet. And then I laughed REALLY hard.
Amy Sedaris
although it has been said that idle hands are the devil's workshop, when it comes to teenagers, both idle and active hands are the devil's workshop.
Amy Sedaris
I always want to look unattractive, it's more fun. I like playing opposites, people who aren't attractive who think they are pretty. That's always interesting to me.
Amy Sedaris
I have always wanted a bunny and I'll always have a rabbit the rest of my life.
Amy Sedaris
I'm more of a clown, a tragic clown. Yeah. I just like humor to come out of characters.
Amy Sedaris
I'm not a good storyteller. I always think I'm going to get interrupted, or something's going to get edited. I think that comes from being in a large family, so you have to get your story in really quick or someone cuts you off.
Amy Sedaris
I feel confident writing on my feet with improv, but it's different when you're sitting down and writing it out.
Amy Sedaris
I like working with the public, I like working with food, and I like making cash.
Amy Sedaris
If I know I have to memorize lines, I'm really gonna try to memorize lines. It's hard for me sometimes, because somebody wrote these words and you're trying really hard to get them the way they said it.
Amy Sedaris
Begin your story with a sentence that will immediately grab hold of your listener's ears like a surly nun in a Catholic school.
Amy Sedaris
I love theatrical props: a cup filled with solid fake tea, say, or a collection of fake food, including a rubber turkey, which, during the holidays, I wrap in tinfoil so it appears to have just come out of the oven.
