It's hard to find female leads that are flawed and interesting and dynamic.

I'm a comedy geek so anything comedy related, whether that's standup shows, improv shows, I'm all over that. That's my favorite way to be entertained always.

Well, I'm not a method actress by any stretch of the imagination so the best thing that I can do is be as real as possible and find whatever commonality in that character that I can see myself.

Music is hugely important to me.

Sure, being good at your job is really important, but in acting, so much of the decision's already made the minute you walk in the room because they're like, 'His hair's good or she's got the right skin color' or whatever. It's so random, but it's so physically oriented.

People are very nice to me, and they've been nice as my career has gotten better and I've gotten more jobs. But the reality is that if I decided tomorrow that I didn't want to act anymore, it's not like people are going to be like, 'Please, come back!'

In early high school years, I was pretty chubby, and I spent a lot of time on my computer, before it was cool to have a computer - because there was a time that was true. So that's where I developed my personality.

I love romantic comedies. I have a deep respect for them. I think they're really difficult to write and write well.

There's people who watch shows while they're preparing their dinners, and they don't want to focus, and they don't want to be challenged, and whatever. And then there's people who want to really sit down and get into a character in a world, and feel like they're expanding, or they have complex relationships, or whatever.

I think anybody who has had a long relationship and has had a really hard time letting go, wants to feel like it's not all for naught, and it's meaningful, because it makes you who you are.

As much as my parents are part of Hollywood, I have no recollection of them giving me advice about it.

People don't believe this, but Hollywood really is a meritocracy.

I don't think that there's been one example in history where somebody has openly talked about their personal life and it's done them any good.

I love being part of an ensemble.

I would be an idiot to say comedy is easy, but it does come naturally. It never feels forced.

I probably wouldn't be acting if I didn't grow up in Hollywood.

A question I get asked a lot is 'What is it like to play the straight guy all the time?' And I'm totally okay with it.

Women have been interesting forever.

I have to say, you know, I've seen so many people go through the cycle and become famous and not famous anymore and, you know, want - have their priorities change and want different things.

You know, I definitely have an inclination to work in the public sector.

I totally believe in romance and love and all that.

I love going to weddings.

Auditioning is the worst.

In elementary and high school, I never considered acting as a profession.

I am definitively qualitative about work.

I have a lot of skepticism about marriage and monogamy.

Marriage feels like an industry with catering and really expensive bands.

I tend to leave the house without makeup all the time. I'm kind of lazy that way.

In college, I had a lot of friends who were writers and wanted to be writers and I felt intimidated by it. I just didn't know if I had any gift or voice and I had no confidence about it.

You know, I grew up on romantic comedies, and it's hard to find a new way to tell that story.

I know my mom said as early as she can remember letting me watch TV, my one treat a week when I was like 6 was to stay up and watch 'Saturday Night Live.'

It's such a fortunate life, if you can work as an actor.

I don't like expectations.

For the most part, there's so much of me in my characters.

I'm generally a pretty friendly person.

It's very challenging to learn something new as an adult.

For the most part, having more money and more fame make your life harder. It just does. I've seen it happen with people. You know, it's so hard to stay normal. It's so hard to stay happy. It's hard to remember why you were doing what you did in the first place.

People still go to Comic-Con because they love comics.

I remember being a kid and seeing the 'National Inquirer' at the grocery store checkout line. When somebody actually picked up a copy, it was mortifying. You felt dirty for them. But now it's perfectly acceptable to read something like that. There's absolutely no taboo surrounding that kind of exploitation.

Control the public's perception of you and nobody will care if you have any talent.

I feel like there is this weird thing where celebrity involvement in political campaigns kind of goes together like peanut butter and chocolate. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad.

I kind of understand now why people freak out when they see celebrities that they love, because that's how I feel about every single Muppet.

I really like the relaxed glamour of the '70s.

To me, it's really easy to feel glamorous and beautiful with red lips. It's great because you don't have to do anything else. I don't have to do anything to my face. I can have cleanly washed hair and if I just put on like a matte red lip, it just makes everything seem special.

Mom is the most unconditionally loving person I will ever know, and she has always supported me on every level.

Smiling is definitely one of the best beauty remedies. If you have a good sense of humor and a good approach to life, that's beautiful.

I know that in life there will be sickness, devastation, disappointments, heartache - it's a given. What's not a given is the way you choose to get through it all. If you look hard enough, you can always find the bright side.

My first love, I'll never forget, and it's such a big part of who I am, and in so many ways, we could never be together, but that doesn't mean that it's not forever. Because it is forever.

Timing is everything with relationships.

Well, dating has become a sport and not about finding the person you love.
