Brie Larson Quotes About Love
One of the reasons I love making movies is because it's an opportunity to share with the world a different way of being or a different way of living or seeing the world.

I really love both acting and singing equally. — Brie Larson
I think that I write about stuff that others don't write about. I don't have a bunch of love songs cuz I don't really have much boy experience. I just write about what I am actually going through in my real life. — Brie Larson

In the past I've been very into the falling part, very into the swimming in the dark, deep emotional water. 'Rampart' I really went into it and it took me three times as long to get out of that depression as it did to just do the scenes. I had to learn to give it my all and then go home and laugh. — Brie Larson
I wasn't interested in going to the school dances. I wasn't interested in going to the football games. What I wanted was to be in my room painting my walls and doing weird stuff. That's what I wanted and I got to do what I wanted, so that, to me, is my high school experience. — Brie Larson
When I take on a character, it's a sacrifice. There's something that you give up every time. I want to become these characters, and I want to be mysterious, but if you know too much about me, it's not going to be too much fun watching me play a character, because it's just going to be me with a mask on, instead of you believing what the mask is. — Brie Larson
I have a sister and her name is Mimsy, like from "Alice in Wonderland," so we've got some strange names in our family. — Brie Larson

And I don't want to lose that feeling. — Brie Larson
When what you do is play characters, every day, all day, I wasn't really interested in playing a pop star on the weekends.

If the music actually happens, at some point, it will be because some underground following happened, or some little elves heard it and were leaking it. — Brie Larson
We need to have points of view from lots of different types of people. People who have different backgrounds, different parts of the world, who maybe perceive gender differently.
