Amy Sedaris
We're all used to seeing pretty people. I want to see real people.
Amy Sedaris

Amy Sedaris
You just can't enjoy any of the movie when you're in it.
Amy Sedaris
Sometimes, to keep things exciting, I decorate my house as if I owned a child. I'll toss a tiny pair of shoes in the hallway or lean small wooden crutches in what I refer to as 'the baby's room,' which is actually a tiny space where I make things. I continue to call it the baby's room because it confuses people and it's creepy.
Amy Sedaris
I always knew I didn't want kids, and I didn't want to get married.
Amy Sedaris
As my guests leave even my most simple parties, I consistently hear the same thing: 'That was the best time I ever had,' and it's always me saying it. But I do know in my heart they all feel the same way, probably.
Amy Sedaris
Gay guys know how to craft, and they craft really well. Straight guys, forget it.
