Biography of Isla Fisher
The most romantic thing a guy has ever done for me is starting a family. That's as romantic as it gets.
Tags: Done, Family, RomanticWhat I loved about breast-feeding was that bond of one-on-one time. The serotonin that's released calms you down and connects you to the baby.
Tags: Baby, Loved, TimeWhen you're younger, being a redhead is... Well, my two brothers teased me no end.
Tags: Brothers, End, RedheadYou can't underestimate how traumatic divorce is for the children.
Tags: Children, Divorce, TraumaticYou know, I didn't get to go to university because I've been acting since I was a kid.
Tags: Acting, Kid, SinceAfter 'Wedding Crashers' I was just surprised as to the lack of comedic female material there is. So I had to start working and getting stuff out there for myself.
Tags: After, Wedding, WorkingGrowing up, there wasn't much emphasis on being nice or naughty. As a family, there wasn't much discipline. It was more relaxed at home, which I'm grateful for.
Tags: Family, Home, NiceI don't really watch many heist movies. Actually, I have quite eclectic tastes, but I tend to watch just foreign films. I don't know why that is. I'm not particularly deep or anything, I just like foreign movies.
Tags: Deep, Movies, WhyI find weddings really boring. They give speeches, your aunt kisses you on the cheek, and you're at a boring table. But it's different when it's your own.
Tags: Boring, Give, TableI love to cook. But I'm a bit rubbish. I tend to start something and then dip into a book or have a conversation and come back and everything's burnt.
Tags: Book, Love, StartI think audiences have always wanted to see women in the movies, but every time a movie like 'Bridesmaids' comes out, everyone says, 'Oh how funny, people do want to see women in the movies.'
Tags: Funny, Time, WomenI went to something like six different schools before the age of 12, so I was always the new girl and had to make friends quickly. It was difficult at the start because I was very bookish - I was literally sat in the corner reading books, with no friends.
Tags: Age, Friends, GirlI've never been a method actress; I've never been that person that wants to imagine horrible things happening in your own life in order to exploit them for your emotional being in the movie. I'm just not good at doing that.
Tags: Emotional, Good, LifeWhen you shoot an independent movie you have a very limited amount of time, and you don't want to be that actor, when a poor director is trying to get through a movie, that you're asking at every second to discuss performance.
Tags: Poor, Time, TryingWhen your parents divorce, it makes you grow up fast. I'd urge parents to strongly consider working things out. I'd work things out and I'd definitely stay put.
Tags: Parents, Work, WorkingWomen should not have to adopt masculine traits in order to succeed. You should be able to stay as a woman, and in tune with your femininity, and still be equal.
Tags: Able, Woman, WomenYou have to list all your special skills on a form when you get an agent. There's fencing, stage combat, horse riding, motorbike riding, Spanish, French, German, whatever. I just ticked everything. I talk about 10 languages according to that form. I even ticked the extreme sports box.
Tags: Special, Sports, TalkYou know, motherhood is my favourite topic in my personal life and I won't shut up about it, but it's not something I want to discuss publicly just because of the amount of attention it draws to a small person who didn't choose to be exposed.
Tags: Life, Personal, SmallAll I know is that I've ruled out wearing fairy wings. When I was nine I wanted to get married in fairy wings, and now I realize that's not cool anymore.
Tags: Cool, Married, WantedI crashed my boyfriend's birthday when I was 12 years old. He didn't invite me and so I showed up.
Tags: Birthday, Boyfriend, OldAnytime anyone compliments me on my figure, I'm wearing my Spanx undies.

Being proud of who we are as people is more important than cutting into ourselves to create this false idea of beauty.
Tags: Beauty, Idea, ProudComedy has always been important in my family. If you got in a good joke at the dinner table, it meant more than almost anything else.
Tags: Else, Family, GoodI breastfed both my kids for two years so, you know it was very tiring emotionally and physically.
Tags: Both, Kids, TiringI don't like junk food, just because I don't like the taste of it, but I don't go to the gym - ever.
Tags: Food, Gym, TasteI love 'Monty Python,' 'Black Adder,' 'Fawlty Towers.' I'm a huge fan of British comedy.
Tags: Black, Comedy, LoveI love acting, love it. It's the greatest fun in the world. I've never had trouble feeling extremely grateful.
Tags: Fun, Greatest, LoveI love good food and I love to eat in nice restaurants. I love Japanese food. I love Gordon Ramsay in London; he is pretty amazing.
Tags: Food, Good, LoveI love marriage. I think it's a wonderful institution and it's the most important decision you make.
Tags: Decision, Love, MarriageI love religions and find them fascinating, and I find Judaism very beautiful. It's enriched my life enormously.
Tags: Beautiful, Life, LoveI never had the chutzpah to just come to L.A. and make it. I didn't have that confidence. I'm always surprised when I get a job.
Tags: Confidence, Job, SurprisedI tell my girlfriends - 'Imagine if all the time you put into waxing and primping, you took all of that energy and put it into something useful.'
Tags: Energy, Put, TimeI think all married couples tend to run things by each other in every capacity and we're not different to them.
Tags: Couples, Married, RunI was raised as a tomboy with boys, and I never really feel like myself when I am really dolled up at premieres and showbiz events.
Tags: Events, Showbiz, TomboyI'm definitely attracted to other Australians; I have a laid-back attitude to life that I feel is very Australian; I love a good barbie.
