Anna Kendrick quotes

I'm the person who wouldn't send back my food even if I got steak when I'd ordered fish. (Anna Kendrick)
I think a gentleman is someone who holds the comfort of other people above their own. The instinct to do that is inside every good man, I believe. The rules about opening doors and buying dinner and all of that other 'gentleman' stuff is a chess game, especially these days. View quote

I guess as long as people think of me for different ages, I'll trust their opinion. I remember noticing one year that Michelle Monaghan played 34 and 19, so I've kind of clung to that as my justification that I can be Jake Gyllenhaal's wife and a freshman in college in the same year. View quote

My parents were really, really cool about supporting what I wanted to do at a really young age. I think I was about 10 when I caught the bug.

I'm constantly playing this game in my head where I'm thinking, 'Can this quote be pared down and misinterpreted?'
