I wouldn't call myself a shut-in. I have the ability to leave my home; I just choose not to. But because I'm such a homebody, it's important to be surrounded by things I love.

I always got along with all types of people - popular people as well as drug addicts.

That's how all theater should be done - you only have one chance to see it and then it's gone. One night only.

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

Usually, the best ideas come from other people's good ideas, which then, after a short gestation period, become your ideas.

I'm drawn to real-life characters. A lot of the characters I play, I've had in me since second grade. I've been dragging them around my entire life, and then sometimes I marry them with different people. But seldom have I really come up with a new character. In my head it's like, "I'll pull that person out that I've been doing since sixth grade and see where they're at right now.".

I need a costume to be convinced that I'm somebody else. Otherwise, it's just me. It's just Amy saying lines. I haven't really become somebody else. And what's the fun in that?
