Amanda BynesI really enjoy acting, and whether it's TV or films, I feel lucky to be doing it at all. In the end, I'd love to do films, but I'm not going to work just to do work. I only want to do something that I feel right about.
Amanda BynesI don't want to be Marilyn Monroe. In many ways, that's a good comparison. Because Marilyn Monroe was a sexpot, all that stuff that I have no interest in. For me, it's much easier to just try to make people laugh than to try to be the hottest thing in the world.
Amanda BynesI'm so protected in my Nickelodeon bubble and 'What I Like About You.' It's all pretty much the same people I've worked with and it was pretty protected.
Amanda BynesGoing to another country you're not in your house, you're with people you've never met before, and I think it's definitely a good growing experience.
Amanda BynesPart of me relates to Perez Hilton because he's an outcast. I don't have a lot of friends who are actresses. They're catty, and they'll cut you down. I like that Perez is proud of who he is and doesn't care what anybody thinks.

Amanda BynesYes! I'm also a big fan of the movie '10 Things I Hate About You,' which was also based on Shakespeare.
Amanda BynesWe try to magnify the difference between Americans and the English. In real life they like the same music and dress the same. It's really much more similar than anyone thinks or how we show it.

Amanda BynesI have no clue [why people say I'm insane]. Every time I've heard it, it came from an ugly person's mouth, so I don't care.
Amanda BynesI like jewellery because it's forever. Flowers die, chocolates get eaten and lingerie wears out in the wash. Plus, the girl is reminded of you every time she wears it. It's a wise move.

I want someone who is good on his own.
Amanda Bynes'Now I've tasted chocolate I'm not going back'. That's a great line. That's not me, that's all the writing. I mean it's like it doesn't matter who plays it, it's a great role. It's such a funny, tongue in cheek kind of great role.

Amanda BynesI think you have to embrace being a role model because you are in the public eye, and whether you like it or not, people are going to be affected by you positively or negatively, ...

And to a certain extent, I try to watch out and try not to do anything that would be bad for kids to see.
