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.

I really don't like going out. I don't like restaurants because I don't like the idea of someone, a waitress, being responsible for my evening. I like seconds, and more, and lots of conversation, and I've always hated the idea that in a restaurant an evening just ends. I find that incredibly depressing.

I don't really consider myself to be a comedian. I mean, it's not like I'm sitting around writing jokes or anything. I just like dressing up and pretending to be other people.

I want witchcraft so bad that I can't stand it. I have wands in my apartment. And I use them sometimes. I walk into the kitchen with my wand, and I come out with something on a platter and I say, 'See, magic happens.' Works every time.

I'm always more attracted to the unattractive.

I just like to have the ideas. Other people can help see them through.
Amy Sedaris
Image
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.

Gay guys know how to craft, and they craft really well. Straight guys, forget it.

I'm drawn to people who look different. I'm not exploiting. I'm not making fun of them. I'm drawn to them.

My kitchen's pink, like skin-tone pink, and I lowered my spice rack so it's eye level - it's true! - and my phone, so I can reach it when I fall, it's right there.

But I love how people who are musical, they know how to dress.
