More quotes by Emily Blunt
I find it quite hard to sum up my relationship in a sound bite. I feel that it trivializes it for other people's pleasure. It's an adventure.
Emily Blunt
You shouldn't strategize your career if you're in a creative realm. You can't either. I love the unknown. I love the element of surprise. I've always felt really inspired by it. I love the spontaneity of the job. I think you can't really fight against it.
Emily Blunt
The more we mask ourselves, the freer we're able to be within ourselves.
Emily Blunt
I love character roles. I'm happier in them. I look for roles that have some kind of complexity.
Emily Blunt
When I read a script, I'll have a very visceral gut reaction to what does this mean to me? How does she feel in my skin? Could I play this role?
Emily Blunt
It's sort of a meat market, the whole awards thing, and I don't think you can predict it anymore - who's going to like what you've done, if it's worthy or not. And hopefully, that's not why you make a film, because if you're distracted by that, or only striving for that, you don't do it justice.
Emily Blunt
I think it is nice for people to appreciate a slow-burning, beautiful story that makes you feel good when it is over.

Emily Blunt
I think that's almost what it is sometimes if you sum up what acting is. It's just the ultimate expression of empathy.
Emily Blunt
With Ricky Gervais, it's all shades of wrong, it's my kind of humor.
Emily Blunt
It's a big chip on my shoulder that I have not been to any of his parties - P. Diddy, Diddy Puff. But he was super nice to me. And he does look sharp, that guy. Doesn't ever go wrong with a suit.
Emily Blunt
If you can capture the humanity of a family struggling in an economic crisis you can make a difference. You can raise awareness just of the simple humanity.
Emily Blunt
Personally, I'm an advocate for short engagements. Long sometimes means there is a reason for it. Two years engaged and no wedding... I'd be upset.
Emily Blunt
I appreciate a slow-burn romance. In most movies, everyone is just tearing their clothes off in the first scene.
Emily Blunt
Things happen in the way they usually should. I'm a pretty fatalistic person.
Emily Blunt
It's quite hard to faze me. I'm fairly un-shockable.
Emily Blunt
I chop a lot of onions because I love cooking, and the times where I've never cried chopping onions is when I'm not thinking about it, when I'm talking to someone or I'm listening to music.
Emily Blunt
I don't really watch that much TV, to be honest.
