Anna Faris quotes

I try to keep my head on straight and take nothing for granted. (Anna Faris)

One of the things that comedy has given me over the years is a really good ability to laugh at myself and to not take things that don't matter too much too seriously. I feel that very little offends me anymore and I'm really grateful for that because I think I was a pretty uptight little kid.

Hollywood studio executives don't recognize the value of female performers as much as male performers.

Anna Faris

You know, right now, they say - I don't know who says this, but somebody told me - there's three male roles to every female role. And I guess I'd work on evening that up. Making great roles for women. It's just such a huge challenge.
