I feel like you can't get an audience to like your character if she's actually cool, but you can if she's trying to be cool and sometimes fails.

More quotes by Anna Kendrick
I shouldn't leave the house or interact with people ever.
Anna Kendrick
I'm a big fan of '30 Rock,' which I think is the most genius show on television.
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
I think my iTunes is a kind of strange and embarrassing mix of show tunes and artists that I have no perception of whether or not they're huge or not, you know? I'm the kind of person who doesn't realize that The Arcade Fire is a big deal, but then I expect everybody to know Cocoon, and people tend to not know Cocoon.
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
When you first saw 'The Truman Show,' did anyone else walk around for the next week not picking your nose just in case?
Anna Kendrick
There's always moments where you creep yourself out, and you think you heard something and you convince yourself that some spirit is in the room with you, but truly, I don't believe in any of that kind of thing. A lot of my friends really do.
Anna Kendrick
I like my men like I like my coffee. Silent.
Anna Kendrick
I feel like if it's not scaring you, you're doing it wrong.
Anna Kendrick
I'm into 'The Walking Dead,' 'Shaun of the Dead,' obviously, and I've seen all the Romero movies. I am a classic zombie queen. And I love the White Walkers on 'Game of Thrones.' Weirdly, it wasn't until pretty late in life that I found my entry point into horror films.
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.
Anna Kendrick
An actor should always let humility outweigh ambition.
Anna Kendrick
I like figuring out where I need to be mentally so that I'm not thinking about the camera and that it's second nature. I want to get to a place where I can exist within the confines of what you can do with filmmaking and not have to think about it.
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 feel love for people that I have loved, and I think that's so beautiful, and I think that's such an important lesson for children that people can have disagreements but it doesn't mean one is bad and one is good.
Anna Kendrick
My mom was always a fan of just really elegant, sophisticated pieces. I mean we grew up in Maine, so we didn't have a lot of call for black tie or anything, but I think I definitely got that sensibility from her.
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
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.
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
Sometimes I think, I need to think before I speak. And then other times I think, I shouldn't leave the house or interact with people ever.
