More quotes by Anna Faris
I was never the class clown or anything like that. When I was growing up and doing theatre in Seattle I was always doing very dramatic work... Now I can’t get a dramatic role to save my life!
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 know that's a vague answer, but you just have to really pedal yourself around town and attempt to not get too discouraged. There is also a different kind of challenge for women, as they graduate into their 30s. It's hard. There isn't as much work. You're suddenly the aunt, or something. So, it's a process.
Anna Faris
Yeah, I do like scary movies, especially the ones that don't take themselves too seriously.
Anna Faris
I never imagined being able to make money from acting - and now I can.
Anna Faris
Especially in the world of comedy, it feels like you have to be proactive, in terms of pitching and trying to sell and being a part of the creation of the stuff that you do.
Anna Faris
You know, right now, they say - I don't know who says this, but somebody told me - there's three male roles to every female role. And I guess I'd work on evening that up. Making great roles for women. It's just such a huge challenge
Anna Faris
I really love comedy and weirdly enough, I love how my journey has ended up. I get to laugh all day long.
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
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 never really thought I wanted to become a movie star.
Anna Faris
I'm not a very good lover. I'm so nervous about my sexuality.
Anna Faris
You have to be willing to accept the idea that people may think you're stupid.
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.
Anna Faris
I feel really grateful that I am in comedy, and I love doing it.
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
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
The eyes are the nipples of the face.
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.
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
