I can't say I follow politics extremely closely, but I'm definitely aware of what's going on in the world.

I've felt depressed many times in my life, so I can draw on those times in my life when I need to.

- Aubrey Plaza

If I have the option, I always read the paper or a book or something I can touch and destroy in my own hands.

It's such a thing now, people making fun of other people on the Internet.

My people would love it if I smiled more, if I was more 'approachable.'

When you improvise, you work off the laughs from the audience, but when you step on stage to do standup, it's silent.

I'm like that person who hates going to magic shows - and I love magic, I love wizards - but going to a show where there is any possibility of audience participation is a nightmare for me.

I would never do a commercial for something that is embarrassing, and I think that people maybe have a different perspective on what is embarrassing or not.

I obviously bring all of my insecurities along with me to any role that I tackle.
