On social media
"I want to throw my hands in the air after reading a mean Twitter comment and say, 'All right! You got it. You figured me out. I'm not pretty. I'm not thin. I do not deserve to use my voice ... All my self-worth is based on what you can see.' But then I think, f--- that." - Gloria Awards and Gala, 2014
On seduction

And I shut them off, and he turns them on, and the other day, he's like, 'Amy, why are you so shy? You know, you have a beautiful body.' I was like, 'Oh my God, you're so cute. You think I don't want you to see me?'" - Live at Gotham, 2010
On foreigners
"I don't think that's a cute accent on dudes - the French accent. It makes my vagina shut like a steel trap. I mean, thank God I've got that other hole." - Cutting, 2011
On disappointment
"We had to break up, though. We wanted different things - like he wanted kids and I wanted him to hear." - Live at Gotham, 2010
