You can't tell an audience to like a character. And I think the best way to get the audience on someone's side is to embarrass them.

More quotes by Anna Kendrick
I feel like if it's not scaring you, you're doing it wrong.
Anna Kendrick
An actor should always let humility outweigh ambition.
Anna Kendrick
My family has had to become quite understanding about me not returning phone calls when I'm filming.
Anna Kendrick
My parents were really, really cool about supporting what I wanted to do at a really young age. I think I was about 10 when I caught the bug. They would drive me down to New York if there were auditions. When I was 12, I did this show on Broadway called 'High Society,' so we moved to New York for the run of that.
Anna Kendrick
I feel like I'm still learning a lot. I think there's a tendency for people who are just doing their first couple of films that I see now where they seem to be really resentful of the technical limitations that come along with filmmaking.
Anna Kendrick
I started auditioning when I was about 10 and I didn't get my first job until I was 12, and two years at that age is really hard.
Anna Kendrick
If a guy was like, 'Let me serenade you,' and it was bad, and I had to lie about it - can't have it.
Anna Kendrick
Every time I talk to a fancy journalist and they ask what I do in my free time my scumbag brain goes 'say masturbate, it'll be hilarious'.

Can we drop the pretense of Presidents Day and just call it I needed a long weekend because Valentines Day is garbage
Anna Kendrick
People like to make fun of the fans who camp out but people have renaissance fairs people do Civil War re-enactments people do what they like. I'm tired of hearing people rage on the fans. If you don't like Twilight, don't buy a ticket.
Anna Kendrick
'Rocket Science' is really where I fell in love with filmmaking, I think 'Camp' was incredible, but it was so bizarre, and I was trying to find my footing in this world where you don't have an audience for immediate validation.
Anna Kendrick
I just got on Twitter because there was some MTV film blog that quoted me on something really innocuous that I supposedly said on Twitter before I was even on Twitter. So then I had to get on Twitter to say: 'This is me. I'm on Twitter. If there's somebody else saying that they're me on Twitter, they're not.'
Anna Kendrick
It's a lot easier to act when the writing is good. Nothing is more frustrating than trying to figure out 'Well, why did I say this next?'
Anna Kendrick
If I die unexpectedly can everyone just do the right thing and pretend I was a way better person than I am?
Anna Kendrick
There are times when I still feel like an actual toddler in a grown-up - well, semi-grown-up - body. But other times I can't wait to actually be 30, just so I can say things like, I'm 30. I don't have time for that. F - k off!
Anna Kendrick
I like sets that feel small. Sets that feel really big are difficult. When you're on a big set it feels like there's constant mis-communication.
Anna Kendrick
This isnt the time to make hard and fast decisions, this is a time to make mistakes. Take the wrong train and get stuck somewhere. Fall in love, a lot. Major in philosophy, because theres no way to make a career out of that. Change your mind and change it again, because nothings permanent.
Anna Kendrick
I can't cook to save my life but I can bake a flour-less chocolate-hazelnut tort with a spicy caramel sauce.
Anna Kendrick
I'm constantly playing this game in my head where I'm thinking, 'Can this quote be pared down and misinterpreted?' It doesn't matter what outlet I'm talking to and how comprehensive the interview is, because I have to think in terms of, 'Right, but 'People' magazine could just take this one quote and take it out of context.'
Anna Kendrick
People who care about celebrity babies are creepy. What will her baby look like?! A baby. Youve seen a baby right? Itll look like that.
