The hardest thing in my industry is longevity, getting your next job. It's hard to get the first job, but it's so much harder to get the sixth or seventh as a woman.

More quotes by Anna Faris
One of the things that comedy has given me over the years is a really good ability to laugh at myself and to not take things that don't really matter too seriously. I feel like very little offends me anymore. I'm really grateful for that because I think I was a pretty uptight little kid.

Hollywood studio executives don't recognize the value of female performers as much as male performers.
Anna Faris
My mom actually didn't let me read any women's magazines growing up. She also didn't let me see Pretty Woman. She thought that I was going to want to be a hooker. So, instead, I just got cast in Scary Movie.
Anna Faris
I used to feel this need to prove to people that I can do something dramatic. But, the truth is that I don't know if I can. I don't think I have it in my skill set. It would be great, but I do love making comedies. It's been so much fun for me, and I hope that I can continue to do it.
Anna Faris
I feel really grateful that I am in comedy, and I love doing it.
Anna Faris
You have to create your own stuff. It's really exciting to create something, sell it, and feel like I'm not just a pawn waiting to be cast
Anna Faris
I did come to realize that getting your first job is hard, but it's not nearly as hard as getting your seventh job. That is hard. That's when you really have to prove it to people.
Anna Faris
I don't really like to go out to clubs or anything. It's just not my style. I'd much rather go to a dive bar or a local place.
Anna Faris
Years ago, I was thinking about this type of character and what happens when you've lived in this sort of strange, surreal world where it's parties all the time and then you don't get to live there anymore. What do you do with the rest of your life?
Anna Faris
I feel like all comedy does require a lack of vanity, but multi-cam, especially.
Anna Faris
Blythe Danner is somebody whose career I admire. She's a great actress and does good work, but also has a life of her own. I love my job but, at the end of the day, I want to come home and watch a movie and drink a bottle of wine with my husband.
Anna Faris
In every career, you are balancing or negotiating tricky waters. But, I think that's been something nice that comedy has been able to give me a little bit more. I have the ability to laugh at myself and hopefully not take all of this whole world too seriously.
Anna Faris
If you don't believe in a line, then you come off as the loser.
Anna Faris
I'm not a very good lover. I'm so nervous about my sexuality.
Anna Faris
Instead of the mahi mahi, may I just get the one mahi because I’m not that hungry.
Anna Faris
I don't know about you, but I love showing my ass to a crew of 300 that I've been working with.
Anna Faris
I know a lot of actors talk about the importance of wardrobe, and it always seems like it's kind of a cop-out, maybe, because it seems like a minor detail to some people. But I think it's hugely important.
Anna Faris
Yeah, I do like scary movies, especially the ones that don't take themselves too seriously.
Anna Faris
It's always exciting to be a part of the development and creative process, and I hope to continue to do it. I feel like, especially in the comedic world, it's how things have to be done. You have to be a part of the motivating factor of getting the movie made. It's so hard.
Anna Faris
My comedy does not come from a place of deep cynicism, and I tend to play characters who are naive in some way.
