I started acting in second grade - my first role was in the Thanksgiving play. I was the Indian chasing the turkey. All the other mom's encouraged my mom to get me into acting after that.

More quotes by Brie Larson
Surrounding myself with women of different backgrounds and on different paths and in different stages of their lives has become so valuable to me.
Brie Larson
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.
Brie Larson
I want more awareness of humanity in this world.
Brie Larson
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.
Brie Larson
I was home-schooled, was always very close with my mom and was very straight-laced and square. I was never the rebellious one, and I never threw hissy fits.
Brie Larson
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.
Brie Larson
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
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.
Brie Larson
There is beauty in living in a small space, as a child. Some aspects of it are so beautiful, and it's so nice to not see the darkness. But then, in other ways, there's a whole range of experience that's being missed because of it.
Brie Larson
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.
Brie Larson
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.
Brie Larson
I was home-schooled 'cause I wanted to be an actor. I would spend all day watching movies, trying to get through calculus.
Brie Larson
There's obviously something that feels very good about being with a new filmmaker who's very excited, but I also think there's something very comforting in a director who's been around a few times. Both have their pros and cons.
Brie Larson
Whenever you want something that you're not going to get, suddenly the whiney 3-year-old comes out in you.
Brie Larson
I'm so used to swimming with the piranhas. And they're really not that bad.
Brie Larson
You have to be really comfortable with yourself because people are going to tell you that you're eyes are too brown or you're this or you're that. And if you're not comfortable with yourself, you could get pretty freaked out.
Brie Larson
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.
Brie Larson
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.
Brie Larson
We're in a different time right now, and I think we're ready to see a different type of female hero.
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
