Anna Faris

I feel really grateful that I am in comedy, and I love doing it. ”

I feel, for the most part, especially in comedy, you make your own work, and maybe that's true across the board. ”

I used to sort of consider myself a feminist, an environmentalist, and I still have some of that in me, but I've done so many offensive comedies, I'm now worn down to a little nub of... nub of an activist. ”

I love being a part of a romantic comedy. I've done a lot of comedies but haven't always had a ton of romance in them. ”

My comedy does not come from a place of deep cynicism, and I tend to play characters who are naive in some way. ”

One of the things that comedy has given me over the years is a really good ability to laugh at myself and to not take things that don't matter too much too seriously. I feel that very little offends me anymore and I'm really grateful for that because I think I was a pretty uptight little kid. ”

After I had my baby, I reprioritized my life in general. I really wanted to play characters that gave me a different kind of fulfillment. That is a difficult thing to find, especially as an actress. ”

Blythe Danner is somebody whose career I admire. She's a great actress and does good work, but also has a life of her own. I love my job but, at the end of the day, I want to come home and watch a movie and drink a bottle of wine with my husband. ”

When I travel, it makes me wish I looked completely polished all the time. I don't. I live in sweats. ”

There are times when I think, 'Do I have the energy to be upset?' and the answer is 'no.' ”
