Quote

Don't make anybody a homemade gift. Unless you're really good, or it's going to be really practical. If it's a little thing you think is cute 'cause you made it, just forget it.

The moment someone says, 'Hey, everyone, listen to the words in this song,' your party is over.

I hate playing pretty or sane people. Most people are not attractive or all there.
Amy Sedaris
Image
I like dramas and stuff. That's what I watch, but it seems weird that I'd be in it.

Learn more about yourself! Make a self-esteem collage using pictures of other people you wish you were.

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.

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.

I always find something to keep me busy.

That's why I love improvisational theater so much - you do it [scene] once and then it's done. You don't get bogged down with a lot of preplanning and repetition. If I do something and it gets a laugh, I don't want to do it again. Why bother? I'm just repeating myself. It's boring.

I like it when people who aren't so attractive, or they have a whole lot of hurdles to get over, I like it when they dress up and they look presentable. That, to me, just touches me.

Image
I like crafts that come out of poverty or necessity. There used to be hobby shops where you'd get your supplies, and then you'd use your imagination.

Image
I love costumes. My dream growing up was always to have my own costume and prop shop.
Amy Sedaris
Image
I cried when I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet. And then I laughed REALLY hard.

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.

There's humor in everything. There's gotta be humor in everything.

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

Gift-wrap the framed artwork on your walls and rehang them - what's nicer than a wall of presents to look at?

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.

A lot of times girls think they're funny, but they want to pretty at the same time, and if you want to be funny, you have to be willing to get ugly.

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

I have always wanted a bunny and I'll always have a rabbit the rest of my life.
