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
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'.
Anna Kendrick
An actor should always let humility outweigh ambition.
Anna Kendrick
I rarely get recognised. It's always a shock when someone notices me. I always think they must be confusing me with someone else.
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
The thing is, my appearance – that’s never been my moneymaker. I’m fine being small. I’m fine being all the things I am. And I’m happy I’m not supposed to be on the 50 Most Beautiful list all the time, because that would be super f**king stressful.
Anna Kendrick
If I see a chapstick that I've never tried, I have to buy it. And then once that door's been opened, I have to check the whole store to see if there are more chapsticks that I don't have.
Anna Kendrick
My goal all along has just been to work and support myself. I've been really lucky to walk away from the 'Twilight' series unscathed. Somebody asked me recently what it's like to be a star. I thought that was the strangest question. If you saw my day-to-day life, the word 'star' just doesn't apply.
Anna Kendrick
I get really excited every time there's a female character who is really strong because a lot of females in film are really soft.
Anna Kendrick
I feel like people want there to be this mystery between film and theater, but I just kind of went where I got jobs, you know?
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
There have definitely been more than a few moments in my life where I'm wondering where the next paycheck will come from and how I'm gonna pay rent.
Anna Kendrick
I fall in love with characters when they're out of their element or are uncomfortable and you really feel for them in a knee-jerk sympathetic way.
Anna Kendrick
I like to think of myself less like 'an adult' and more like a 'former fetus.'
Anna Kendrick
I think there are rock stars within every subgenre, and for people who are obsessed with musical theater Sutton Foster and Audra MacDonald are like Beyonce to them. I'm sure the a cappella world has their own version of that, and that exists in every geeky subculture.
Anna Kendrick
I think a gentleman is someone who holds the comfort of other people above their own. The instinct to do that is inside every good man, I believe. The rules about opening doors and buying dinner and all of that other 'gentleman' stuff is a chess game, especially these days.
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
I'm a big fan of '30 Rock,' which I think is the most genius show on television.
Anna Kendrick
I was at awards shows and felt really lost so it was good to play someone who was really lost.
Anna Kendrick
It's cute how I used to think this 'barely holding it together' feeling was temporary.
Anna Kendrick
Similarly, I think I'm lucky that I've never had a crisis about whether the only reason I'm successful is because I'm crazy hot. It's not something that crosses my mind.
