My dad would throw me in the picture if they needed an extra. From an early age, I understood the concept that, if you're not the star, then your job is to not pull attention away from the star.

I think my voice would be great as a protestor but also it would be, and has been, very powerful for charity.
Ansel Elgort
Young people are this country [America], and we need to speak out.
Ansel Elgort
I've lived in a bubble my whole life. I never thought someone with those kind of views, who came across to me so ignorant every time he speaks, could ever be elected.
Ansel Elgort
I'd like to do something that hits close to home.
Ansel Elgort
I got starstruck not by someone who is famous, but by someone who's famous in the miniature painting community. When I was a kid, I used to paint miniatures. There were famous people in the miniature community from forums online. I went to some big event and I saw them in real life and I was so starstruck.

As much as politicians, any politicians, Democrat or Republican, are saying they're trying to help the schools, it's hard because our country is in debt. I would like to do something for the inner-city schools because that's our future, and education is very important in helping our country continue to progress and not regress.
Ansel Elgort
I'm trying to have no regrets. I'm starting to learn about myself and how to live. As an actor, part of the job is accepting your life and learning how to roll with it. I want to live a life where I don't regret any decisions, and if I do, I learn from them.
Ansel Elgort
It's so sad, you get less starstruck when you start realizing that it's not a big deal.
Ansel Elgort
I think it's important I stay connected to every part of my personality. I play basketball. I rock climb. I paint. I'm a little bit scattered, but it's so I can convincingly play all these characters.
Ansel Elgort
I feel, for the first time, ashamed to be an American because we elected [Donald Trump].
Ansel Elgort
I don't just act, and that's really important to me. I don't want to just be an actor forever. I want to score movies. I could be an actor first, but I don't only want to be an actor.
Ansel Elgort
I think it would be ridiculous to work with Tom Hardy. I hear some crazy things about him, and he's also really good.
Ansel Elgort
I think what I really want to do [is] do something charitable.
Ansel Elgort
I write music because I love it. Sometimes more than anything in the world.
Ansel Elgort
Anyone would be able to be played by someone like him [Donald Trump], that's what he did, he played people.
Ansel Elgort
If you don't know my name and you don't know what movie I'm from, don't come ask for a picture while I'm trying to eat chipotle
Ansel Elgort
I was never not in a show from ages 11 until 18. It was a great creative atmosphere but also a professional kind of atmosphere. When I finally went into the professional world, I felt ready. I was prepared for work.
Ansel Elgort
As America, we aren't the country that we should be with Donald Trump as president.
