Anna Kendrick Quotes

I've never felt like I've exactly traded on my looks. When I was a teenager, I was an ultra late bloomer, and my mom would say it was a blessing because it means you never have to wonder if guys are only interested in you because you've got boobs.

I had a pretty poor self-image for a long time. I broke into acting as a model in New York. I was never anything like a "supermodel," but I made a living at it for a couple years. The thing was, I was convinced that I was tricking everyone into thinking I was attractive.

I'm not like a gorgeous bombshell or anything like that.

No, I never ever considered myself attractive.

From the ages of 12 to 35 my body, not my mind, was my primary currency. My ideas, my humor, my curiosity - none of those were valued as much as my body, which preceded me into almost every room.

I know I was not the hottest chick at school!

Pretty That's what I am, I guess. I mean, people have been telling me that's what I am since I was two. Maybe younger. Pretty as a picture. (Who wants to be a cliché?) Pretty as an angel. (Can you see them?) Pretty as a butterfly. (But isn't that really just a glam bug?) Cliché, invisible, or insectlike, I grew up knowing I was pretty and believing everything good about me had to do with how I looked. The mirror was my best friend. Until it started telling me I wasn't really pretty enough.

Being called gorgeous is not a bad thing! But at the same time, I don’t want to thrive on people’s opinions of me.

I'm not that good looking.

I'm not a centerfold.

I wasn't attractive when I was growing up, and I don't think I am now.

It kind of cracks me up when people say I'm hot because I just think that that's a term that I don't have to deal with anymore.

As a teenager, I was teased at school about my height and long legs, but now they are my best assets. Kids can be mean. When I was at school, I considered myself ugly, but that was when I was silly enough to believe that what other people thought mattered. Now I think I am pretty. I'm not beautiful. There is a difference.

I don't think what I look like is relevant.

I think of myself as a fairly attractive girl and always have, thanks to my mom. I was brought into this world thinking I was gorgeous because my mother was extremely devoted to this notion.

I'm not as beautiful as a model.

Girls pour their insecurities into their looks.

I'm not an eye-candy kind of girl.

For a long time, I did feel aware that I wasn't pretty or bubbly enough. Nor was I sexy-looking.

I don't think I ever feel sexy. I don't think that's for me to decide, if I'm sexy or not.

I think I was lucky in that I wasn't one of those girls who are told they are pretty the whole time. I never got that. Nor did I ever obsess about my looks as a teenager.

There are certainly a billion, ker-trillion girls out there more attractive than I am.

I don't really care if people think I'm good-looking or not; it doesn't define me as a person.

I'm not obsessed by looks. I think you can become a prisoner of your own image.

We see these cute, perfect bombshells that make me feel like I'm not good enough, I'm not pretty enough. I don't think I could pull off playing a person like that, and do I want to? I don't know.
