Trainwreck – Out Now on Blu-ray and DVD – Best Amy Schumer Quotes

Since she was a little girl, it’s been drilled into Amy’s head by her rascal of a dad that monogamy isn’t realistic. Now a magazine writer, Amy lives by that credo – enjoying what she feels is an uninhibited life free from stifling, boring romantic commitment – but in actuality, she’s kind of in a rut. When she finds herself starting to fall for the subject of the new article she’s writing, a charming and successful sports doctor named Aaron Conners, Amy starts to wonder if other grown-ups, including this guy who really seems to like her, might be on to something.

It’s hard to not appreciate Amy Schumer’s genius wit and comedic timing. As one of this generation’s most celebrated female comedians, her fan base is ever increasing and her debut feature Trainwreck only boosted people singing her praises. To celebrate the release of Trainwreck on Blu-ray and DVD, we take a look at some of her best moments...

On Promiscuity
‘In every group of girlfriends, there’s that one who is the sluttiest. If you don’t have that friend, then you’re that friend.’ – The beginning of Trainwreck sees Amy learning an important life lesson from her dad, that according to him: ‘monogamy isn’t realistic’. She doesn’t care what people think and we salute her for that!

On Being Herself, And Not Who Others Want Her To Be
‘Some guys, they want to sleep with a girl that’s, like, a skeleton wrapped in plastic. That’s fine if that’s what you want. But I’m gonna keep eating and showering infrequently’ – Always an advocate for staying true to yourself, Amy does not abide by what others want. Frequently asked about her perceptions of body image, Amy regularly states her beliefs on the importance of individuality and accepting one’s self. We admire this outlook and wish it was more widely adopted.

On the Perks of Alcohol
‘Nothing good ever happens in a blackout … I’ve never woken up and been like, what is that pilates mat doing out?’ – Nothing good may happen during a blackout, but prior to the blackout greatness can occur … At least we like to think so. Trainwreck witnesses Amy taking numerous shots, passing out in strangers beds and doing the walk of shame the morning after. If you wake up and a pilates mat is out you know you haven’t been living on the edge!

On Living On The Bright Side of Life
‘The moments that make life worth living are when things are at their worst and you find a way to laugh’ – This might be a bit deeper than the usual Amy Schumer quotes we’re used to, but we have to agree she has a point. If laughing is Amy’s key to happiness and success we think everyone should follow suit!

On Being a Cougar
‘I finally just slept with my high school crush. But I swear; now he expects me to go to his graduation – like I know where I’m going to be in three years’ – In Trainwreck Amy famously seduces the office intern, to quickly discover his charm is a disguise to mask that he is underage. Being cougar might be appealing for a moment, but according to Amy its affects don’t last long. Take note.

On Making Mistakes
‘I made out with a homeless guy by accident. I had no idea – he was really tan, he had no shoes on. I just thought it was, like, his thang, you know? I was like, he’s probably in a band.’ – Appearances can be deceiving and I guess we all make mistakes … right?!

On Marriage
‘All my friends are getting married. I just I’m just at that age where people give up.’ – When people stop looking for love that’s when they find it … or at least that’s the general understanding. Perhaps Amy is onto something here, that if we all stop looking for the one we might finally meet them? Then again, from a young age in Trainwreck Amy learns from her dad that ‘monogamy isn’t realistic’.

On Being a Woman
‘I am a woman with thoughts and questions and shit to say’ - preach it sister! We love a woman who stands up for herself and says what’s on her mind. Say it loud and say it proud!

On Being a Comedian
‘I just say what I think is the funniest thing I could say. I’m not trying to make headlines. I’m just trying to say the stuff that I think is funny and will make people laugh’ – And good on Amy we say!
