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.

I would go into periods of depression in my life, and I would feel so alone. I felt that there was no one who understood how I felt, either on TV or in music, and writing really helped me change what I thought and how I felt about myself.

I didn't go to prom - I was homeschooled.

I feel like it's too easy to just say, We'll just change the name of this male character to a female, but have her do all the same things that a male does. I don't believe in that. I think there's something else. I think there's more to women than that.

Singing is an incredible expression and something that is important to me, but where I feel comfortable with how much I reveal about myself is acting. I enjoy the characters, the costumes, the wigs and just being a chameleon.

I was home-schooled 'cause I wanted to be an actor. I would spend all day watching movies, trying to get through calculus.

For me, the dumbest rule is that you can't chew gum in school. For some reason, chewing gum for me gets my brain going.

Part of accepting a role is being interested in the character and part of it is being interested in the movie or what it means and the exploration of it. But it's more about not knowing the answers to certain questions but wanting to go on the journey of discovery to find the answers.

I only write about stuff I know. I don't have a lot of experience with boys and stuff so I write a lot of songs about interesting and strange subjects that people wouldn't write songs about.

I was 3 when I told my mom that I knew what my dharma was and that I wanted to be an actor.

Image
It's really hard to see yourself and to recognize that you are a human being like everybody else. You just think everybody's judging you.
Brie Larson
Image
I try to find some sort of meditative hobby to do on set, and it's different for every film. There's a lot of downtime, but I don't like reading on set because it feels like you're taking yourself out of your world, instead of being present. And then, you feel like you're not ready to do whatever you have to do.

I was the type of person that would show a PowerPoint presentation about why I should do something versus crying and screaming over it.

I feel like the movie is reminding people of who they are, which is what I think all great art does.

Image
I didn't have a regular school experience and wanted a more abstract way of learning. I started exploring in lots of different creative ways. It gave me the opportunity to travel and play music, so it was good for me.

Sometimes I laugh with my parents, and sometimes I yell at them, and both are therapeutic.

Image
I think more things are becoming socially acceptable. I think that just by having more media, whether that's TV or Internet, we're able to see more things.

Image
We're in a different time right now, and I think we're ready to see a different type of female hero.
Brie Larson
Image
For me, I believe that just seeing women be strong and tough is not answering the question of what a female hero looks like. Women have their own set of skills that are worth exploring and seeing on screen.

It's hard when I get to the end of the movie and am held hostage and am supposed to be very upset and the funniest things I've ever heard in my life are coming out. All I can do is pretend there's something really important behind me to hide my face from it.
