The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Ellie Kemper

  • I can’t do impressions.
  • I joined an improv comedy group. Ours was named ‘Quick Fire!’ with an exclamation point. It was when I auditioned for that team and got on it and felt like… I’ll just say I felt like I was good at it.
  • If I’m alone, I tend to cook for myself. I do a pretty good job of preparing healthful foods. My go-to is everything in a bowl like quinoa, avocado. Later in the day, scrambled eggs. I’m not a gourmet chef. I cook in bulk very well.
  • Improv is mostly what I’ve studied.
  • I’m not on social media because I feel like that would be just such another level of responsibility that I don’t feel up to. It’s not uncommon now to have personal and public intertwined, and I don’t know how people are able to manage that. I don’t know where you go when you want to be alone if everything is out there.
  • Growing up, I had one very specific idea of what a wedding should be, and that was the wedding of Fraeulein Maria and Captain von Trapp in ‘The Sound of Music.’
  • I like healthful foods, but I’m from the Midwest, so I like food that’s been around longer.
  • 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.
  • I loved ‘Freaks and Geeks.’ I don’t know a better show.
  • I wrote comedy sketches in college.
