A lot of high school students on TV and in Broadway are played by people in their late 20s and even early 30s. That seems weird to me.

More quotes by Ansel Elgort
I love Marlon Brando and James Dean. That was when it was all about the star and the script. Nowadays, everything has to be action-packed.
Ansel Elgort
Success is being artistically fulfilled and happy. You can't control how people see your movie or how much money it makes...and the same thing with music. When I'm writing a song or I'm in the studio, those memories, that's epic.
Ansel Elgort
I'm starting to get a following on Twitter. That's a really awesome power to have. It gives me the opportunity to make any kind of art I want.
Ansel Elgort
Picture-taking is an ensemble art-like theater.
Ansel Elgort
I don't want to just be an actor my whole life. I mean I do want to be an actor my whole life but not only an actor, I want to be an artist.
Ansel Elgort
Why go around dating random girls and having terrible sex when you can be with someone you really like?
Ansel Elgort
I’ve never taken time off from being an actor. This is the kind of career I’d be so happy to do until I die. I always joke to myself that I want to have a postmortem Academy Award Nomination.
Ansel Elgort
Apparently, the world is not a wish granting factory.
Ansel Elgort
I have a lot of weird interests, but everything I do is artistic.
Ansel Elgort
As America, we aren't the country that we should be with Donald Trump as president.
Ansel Elgort
I always did workshops. I would be at theater camp, doing shows, or after-school programs.
Ansel Elgort
Donald Trump as a figurehead is the opposite of that - he's regression, he's taking a step backward.
Ansel Elgort
It's so sad, you get less starstruck when you start realizing that it's not a big deal.
Ansel Elgort
I'd like to do something that hits close to home.
Ansel Elgort
We need to also act out, and anything that [Donald] Trump does, anything he's trying to do that we don't agree with or anything this country is doing in general that we don't agree with, we need to protest, we need to make our voices heard. And that has to go beyond Twitter - for me as well.
Ansel Elgort
Young people are this country [America], and we need to speak out.
Ansel Elgort
As an actor, you want a director who makes you feel comfortable in a place that you can really create and try a lot of different things.
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
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.
Ansel Elgort
I'm a big fan of Shake Shack.
