More quotes by Amy Sedaris
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.
Amy Sedaris
I always find something to keep me busy.
Amy Sedaris
I'd just much rather see an ugly person take the trash out than see somebody really pretty taking the trash out.

I love cop shows and crime books and thrillers, and before I die I'm gonna play a cop.
Amy Sedaris
I stayed in New York City for the first time, I'd always wanted to do that.

On the off chance that you have children, don't clean up at all. As children, my brother and sister and I loved waking up early and playing cocktail party with the leftover debris
Amy Sedaris
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.
Amy Sedaris
Crafting is putting ideas into action and then holding them together with an inexpensive adhesive.
Amy Sedaris
Gay guys know how to craft, and they craft really well. Straight guys, forget it.
Amy Sedaris
If you cannot come to the party, do not cancel at the last minute or give a message to a child to inform the host. And don't bother explaining why you can't attend because anything after 'because' is bullshit.
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.
Amy Sedaris
I am an aging Girl Scout.
Amy Sedaris
I like to entertain in all aspects. When you're with somebody and you're out, you want to be entertained.
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 live in the moment.
