A review by concernedfern
Yes Please by Amy Poehler
3.0
- I know enough now to know I know nothing
- You do it because the doing of it is the thing. The doing is the thing. The talking and thinking and worrying is not the thing this is what I know. Writing the book is about writing the book.
- I tried to tell the truth and be funny what else do you want from me you filthy animals
- I like attention, attention and control, attention control, and as it turns out laughs (how I fell in love with improv)
- I already made a decision early on, that I would be a plain girl, with tons of personality. And accepting it made everything a lot easier.
- Nobody looks stupid when they’re having fun
- You have to be where you are to get where you need to go
- A persons tragedy does not make up their entire life. A story carbs, deep grooves into our brains each time we tell it, but we aren’t one story. We can change our stories. We can write our own.
