Amy Adams's quotes
- I have worked with some of the meanest people in the world. You can't do anything to intimidate me.
- I think that I've always been attracted to characters who are positive and come from a very innocent place. I think there's a lot of room for discovery in these characters and that's something I always have fun playing.
- [on singing at the Academy Awards] It's nerve-wracking! I'll be up there, singing the song in front of billions of people - oh, and Daniel Day-Lewis! And Cate Blanchett. I'll be going to Taco Bell when the ceremony is over. Mexican food cures me.
- [on being stereotyped as the naïve one] Not at this point. Right now, I'm just doing what I enjoy and I've done some different films, I've done some different types of roles.
- [on the era in which The Master (2012) is set] We were a society in transition. Women were given responsibility in wartime, and then it was back to the kitchen and take care of your man. The perception of what what was available to women was so different.
- [on having the Muppets as co-stars] To see them when they're not animated was really upsetting.
- I had an existential crisis at the Oscars, sitting next to Sean Penn and Meryl Streep, and being like "What am I doing here? I don't belong here." I felt like it could all be taken away.
- I've always really loved action films, but I don't see myself as a superhero girl, so my Lois Lane is a mere mortal full of imperfections.
- Man of Steel (2013) was an opportunity to be in a genre film without having to train... I always want to defeat supervillains - it's just the chicken-and-broccoli diet that I'm not into.
- I was a huge Ann-Margret fan, and I wanted to be like her.
