I think every human being has a level of melancholy in life and in general.
-
To me, the producing falls into the same as acting. It requires so much time out of your life, and I take it very personally, I realize. So if I do something, it just has to be something I love and I don't want anyone else to do. When I open projects, maybe something will appeal to me. I think I'm not opening them because I don't want anything to appeal to me right now.
-
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.
-
People order clothes out of a catalogue, put it on an actor and everything is generic.
-
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.
-
I consider myself sort of like a pseudo lawyer. Like, I'm convinced I can solve every case and argue my way.
-
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 don't want an opportunity to go missing because of my lack of organization.
-
Failing is what we do, or stumbling is what we do on a daily basis.
-
I got away from comedy because it wasn't being done in the way that I loved and the way that I could do it. It made me sad because I felt like it wasn't appreciated and no one was writing it so, 'I'll abandon it.
-
I'm a good actress. That's why you know me as likable.
-
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.
-
Latinos, Asians, African-Americans, women - we're all trying to find our place in this world of cinema and television and theater. And the great thing with comedy is that most of the time, you could be orange. It doesn't matter, as long you're funny.
-
All the knowledge that I have doesn't necessarily make me brilliant, but I love acquiring knowledge and then sharing it with everybody else.
-
Poop humor is fun. If you do the toilet scenes well and commit to them, they can be really, really powerful.
-
We don't have to pretend to be something that we're not.
-
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.
-
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 don't understand women who try to be glamour queens.
-
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.
-
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?"
-
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.
-
Makeup is scary. When I do it myself, it's just mascara, and sometimes I forget even to do that.
