Emma Stone Quotes About Love
I just want to do a good job with each role that I take and continue to better myself as an actress because that's what I love about this job... being able to act and work with so many different people on such a wide range of projects. — Emma Stone
There's no right way. There's no measurement system. That's why, you know, art competitions are a little confusing to me. I mean, they're lovely, but so many people are affected by different people and different things in such different ways. And yeah, it's immeasurable. — Emma Stone
I can't help moving my face - reacting - when I watch a movie, because I'm really inhabiting a character. I know this is weird, but it demonstrates what I love about cinema: it allows you to live a different life, to have a different experience, to disappear for two hours. I think it's wonderful. — Emma Stone
I always loved acting and improv and sketch comedy and theater, which I did at a local youth theater. — Emma Stone
If you knew everyone's story, you would love them. You can't really hate anyone if you know everything that happened to them between their birth and now; why they became the way they became; why they have walls up or down. If you truly know someone, you'd get it. — Emma Stone
Not to be confused with Spider-Man's other girlfriend Mary Jane Watson, who is a skank and doesn't love him like I do. — Emma Stone
I have been so deeply, profoundly lucky to have friends in my life that have always just loved me exactly as I am no matter what time period I'm in. — Emma Stone
I wouldn't consider myself a so-called 'celebrity.' Arrrgh, for the love of God! — Emma Stone
Being able to work on projects that I love and care about has been the greatest gift ever, and that's been a pretty recent thing in my life. But success for me at some point will probably be having a family. — Emma Stone
I don't do what I love to do a lot of the time. — Emma Stone
Emma Stone Quotes About Funny
I think 'Saturday Night Live', starting in the 1970s, really gave women an outlet to be funny. A lot of those women went on to have film careers, from Kristen Wiig now to Tina Fey and Gilda Radner. — Emma Stone
That old question about whether, as a woman, you can be funny and attractive at the same time. Argh! I hate that question. Of course you can. — Emma Stone
The idea that you can't be attractive and funny at the same time is something that I hate. — Emma Stone
I always thought it's way more important to be funny or to be honest than to look any certain way — Emma Stone
The only movie I can watch on a loop, over and over, is 'Help', the Beatles movie. It's so funny and irreverent and great. — Emma Stone
I've been looking at that in myself lately. Often, joking for me is a way of diffusing the awkwardness of a situation, so it's kind of exhilarating to be a part of projects where there's nothing funny or lighthearted. — Emma Stone
Emma Stone Quotes About Parents
When I was 14 -years-old, I made this PowerPoint presentation, and I invited my parents into my room and gave them popcorn. It was called 'Project Hollywood 2004' and it worked. I moved to L.A. in January of 2004. — Emma Stone
Chemistry is like an indefinable thing. When it comes to people playing your best friend or your parents or anything like that, there's always different kind of element to chemistry. — Emma Stone
To go and accomplish a dream at 15, it doesn't feel like you have all that much to lose because you're in high school. You're being home schooled. You get to kind of go for it in a different way. Your parents are still in charge. — Emma Stone
My parents always put more of an emphasis on who I was as opposed to what I achieved. They were never like, "You won that! You did this!" It was all about, "You've got a good heart. You're a good friend. You're a good daughter." So that other stuff in no way defines my sense of self. — Emma Stone
The last thing in the world my parents would want to do is get on a stage or do a movie. They would probably rather die. But they let me be who I was, and they supported me. — Emma Stone
I think the number one thing that I find important is the importance of honesty with your friends and your parents, if you can be. But I think that telling people how you really feel, being who you truly are, being safe and taking care of yourself is the most important thing. — Emma Stone
Emma Stone Quotes About School
I was raised in Arizona, and I went to public school, and the extent of my knowledge of the civil-rights movement was the story of Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, Jr. I wonder how much my generation knows. — Emma Stone
I'm actually the last person to ask about school. I kinda ducked out at 12, before all that stuff might have happened. I left school after sixth grade and was basically home-schooled after that. — Emma Stone
It's definitely a shock to go from being 15 in high school to working. There's no real cushion there. There's no preparation at all. You learn by doing. — Emma Stone
On the first day of middle school I wore high-heeled shoes that you weren't allowed to wear. I remember being so embarrassed because in every class I went to they kept pointing out that I couldn't wear these shoes. I wanted to call my mom and have her bring me new shoes! — Emma Stone
There's so much I'm interested in that I didn't discover in high school. For 'The Amazing Spider-Man', because Gwen is a scientist, we went to a lab in San Diego, and we were learning about biology. And I'm fascinated! Because I never went to biology class in high school. — Emma Stone
Emma Stone Quotes About Stuff
I wish I gardened. I don't have a space for a garden. I'm in an apartment in New York but I do lots of stuff. I read and write and hang out with people. I go see movies. — Emma Stone
I used to do Facebook but you get a little too wrapped up in that stuff. Its more distracting than anything so I don't any more. I left it behind. I detoxed! — Emma Stone
I love to see movies and just other embarrassing stuff. — Emma Stone

I think a lot of female actors have a real fear of not looking their best. They learn to prize their vanity over a role in which they have to look like a moron. They're worried they'll damage their sex appeal. Thankfully, I have no problem looking like a moron! — Emma Stone
We're always too skinny, or too fat. Too tall, or too short. We're shaming each other, and we're shaming ourselves, and it sucks. — Emma Stone
There is something to the fact that when you're on stage or when you're playing someone else, you're able to transmute all the things inside you that maybe get a bit blocked by the wall of shyness, or the wall of anxiety, or [by] overthinking. They sort of fall away in that moment and channeled into something else. — Emma Stone
I could never be Charlie Chaplin. But the films that were made by people like him, or Gene Wilder, or John Candy, the people that inspired me so much were the people that were able to combine humor with heartbreak so beautifully and fluidly. Those films I think were what inspired me to want to come to L.A. and audition for movies. — Emma Stone

My parents are both very funny but they're also relatively soft-spoken, normal human beings while I'm just a lunatic. I don't know where this loud, ballsy, hammy ridiculousness came from.

But I don't think that I've been deft at hiding parts of my personality. — Emma Stone
My great goal in life is to try to remember that everything is of equal value. — Emma Stone

A lot of times I feel like people come up to me because they think I'm like my character in Easy A, or because they've seen me in interviews, but really what they're a fan of is a movie or a character. — Emma Stone
By county, there's like 14 different accents in Mississippi alone. And now, present day, a Mississippi accent is different than in 1963.

I had to go through that filter, so it was interesting. — Emma Stone

But I get to tell stories, and that’s a pretty important task. — Emma Stone
I find the worst audition is the no audition. — Emma Stone
Oh yeah, waiting sucks. — Emma Stone

I can't think of any better representation of beauty than someone who is unafraid to be herself. — Emma Stone
People aren't stupid. People wanna see good movies, especially comedies. Those by the books comedies, I don't get it. Who likes those? Nobody likes those. — Emma Stone
As much as I try to be present, it just doesn't really feel like reality. It feels like a fleeting thing. There's a million other incredibly wonderful girls that are much more talented than me that are out there all the time. So I'm just trying to appreciate it for what it is.
