Ellie Kemper Quotes

  • I’ve never had prejudice against me because of being a woman in comedy, I’ve never felt any sort of unfairness because of that – but I do think it is naive to think that it doesn’t exist.
  • It’s interesting because with a lot of people who I’ve met in comedy, it seems not to matter what your background is. In terms of formal schooling – I feel like that’s a nineteenth century term – but in terms of where you went to high school or college, or wherever, all that really is irrelevant, I have found, in comedy.
  • My painting teacher in high school used to say, ‘I can’t paint like I want to, but through practice I’ll get better.’ But I don’t think that’s true. I think sometimes you just can’t paint.
  • Most New Yorkers want to look amazing, and they want you to understand that they look amazing, but they also want you to stop staring at them.
  • New York is like the weirdest city in the United States, in a great way, and Los Angeles is probably more similar to most of America.
  • One nice thing that I have discovered about Los Angeles is the enthusiasm with which people dress.
  • Growing up, I had one very specific idea of what a wedding should be, and that was the wedding of Fraulein Maria and Captain von Trapp in ‘The Sound of Music.’
  • I need to make sure that when I’m running out to the drugstore I’m not wearing a Biore strip or something. Not that I expect anyone to recognize me, but on the off chance they do, I just don’t want to embarrass myself.
  • I want to be a morning-talk-show host. I love Kelly Ripa’s job. She gets to live in New York and has this amazing job hosting a talk show.
  • I wrote comedy sketches in college.
  • If you’re going to plan a wedding, then a certain amount of suffering is not a choice.
  • Improv is mostly what I’ve studied.
  • In Los Angeles, people dress with the deep and earnest hope that people will do nothing but stare at them.
  • Los Angeles survives on that which is unpredictable. The unexpected courses through its very veins.
  • I can’t do impressions.
  • I guess it’s easier to think badly and then be pleasantly surprised.
  • I loved Freaks and Geeks (1999). I don’t know a better show.
  • I think I get certain pleasure from writing what I’m performing.
