As for doing more dramatic work over comedy, I do whatever turns me on at the moment.
-
Having to be nice all the time is exhausting and boring, but to play someone who just has that under layer of unhappiness, you know that it comes from someplace.
-
Failing is what we do, or stumbling is what we do on a daily basis.
-
Stop being scared of the unknown, because anything I worried about didn't happen. Other stuff happened. The unknown, we can't do anything about.
-
I don't like guys who will lie down and take it. I want someone who'll fight back. I like people who can argue well.
-
I'm a good actress. That's why you know me as likable.
-
I think every human being has a level of melancholy in life and in general.
-
You can't really dance properly to James Brown. If you dance to James Brown, you look like an idiot. There's a lot of jerking.

I consider myself sort of like a pseudo lawyer. Like, I'm convinced I can solve every case and argue my way.
-
I was raised in Washington, DC in a household where one parent was a Republican and the other was a Democrat, so I got both sides.
-
I always had boyfriends, but I never imagined a proposal or a wedding. To me, that was like having a ball and chain round your neck.

I have these big piano-playing hands. I feel like I should be picking potatoes.

I know nothing about love and romance, so I prefer to stick to just comedy.

You don't. It doesn't work. One day, you wake up, and you've learned how to store it, and you go to another part of the heart.

I basically became a cheerleader because I had a very strict mom. That was my way of being a bad girl.
-
I never felt I was missing anything ever until one day I stopped long enough to smell the roses outside of this little treadmill I'd gotten myself onto and I realised there were other things that I like that I didn't know. I realised I didn't like certain things in my life that I then got rid of and it just opened the door to a plethora of other things that entered.

Usually comedy is only available to us ladies in the romantic comedy. That's why I hate romantic comedies.
-
I don't understand women who try to be glamour queens.
-
I watched a documentary about Freedom Riders. One young woman told her parents, 'I'm going to leave college to ride and represent the future.' I thought, 'Who would do that now?' Who would do that for my son?"
-
There's so many different ways to cheat. People think infidelity is the way to cheat. I think it's sometimes far worse to emotionally cheat on somebody.

People order clothes out of a catalogue, put it on an actor and everything is generic.

I don't want to not enjoy where I am at this very moment. So, every time I plan something the exact opposite happens. I hope that I'm always satisfied and content like I am right at this very moment.
