Amy Sedaris

I like to entertain in all aspects. When you're with somebody and you're out, you want to be entertained. I like to be around entertaining people. Even if they're bored, and you're in a convalescent home, there's something entertaining about that, in a way.

I feel so free and open to ideas, and I get inspired by everything.

I like crafts that are made out of necessity because they're a little naive - you made it because you needed it.

I really don't like going out. I don't like restaurants because I don't like the idea of someone, a waitress, being responsible for my evening. I like seconds, and more, and lots of conversation, and I've always hated the idea that in a restaurant an evening just ends. I find that incredibly depressing.

I hate playing pretty or sane people. Most people are not attractive or all there.

You know when you watch old movies, it's always the small parts you remember, the character actors who come in like a breath of fresh air.

I'd rather have a part where you walk into a room and you leave. That's perfect for me.

I just like to have the ideas. Other people can help see them through.

I'm not ambitious.

They just expected it to you know... Paul, Steve and I could have hired our own publicist, if we wanted to, but I kind of liked the way it was more of a cult thing and those that liked it, liked it, you know what I mean?

I'm very domestic; I love cleaning. I love cooking. I like waiting on people. I just like to make things. I don't break that down to be weakness, or the only things women can do, or putting me back 20 years.

I love cop shows and crime books and thrillers, and before I die I'm gonna play a cop.
