When I was 14 -years-old, I made this PowerPoint presentation, and I invited my parents into my room and gave them popcorn. It was called 'Project Hollywood 2004' and it worked. I moved to L.A. in January of 2004.

More quotes by Emma Stone
My parents always put more of an emphasis on who I was as opposed to what I achieved. They were never like, You won that! You did this! It was all about, You've got a good heart. You're a good friend. You're a good daughter. So that other stuff in no way defines my sense of self.

The people I look up to the most - politicians, actors, artists - are the people who manage to do a high-powered job while staying themselves. They aren't afraid to be nice.
Emma Stone
Sometimes you're not like the person you'd want to hang out with. Would I really want to hang out with me full time? No, you've gotta find people who balance you out.
Emma Stone
Oh yeah, waiting sucks.

I think a lot of female actors have a real fear of not looking their best. They learn to prize their vanity over a role in which they have to look like a moron. They're worried they'll damage their sex appeal. Thankfully, I have no problem looking like a moron!
Emma Stone
I have been so deeply, profoundly lucky to have friends in my life that have always just loved me exactly as I am no matter what time period I'm in.

You know how sports teach kids teamwork and how to be strong and brave and confident? Improv was my sport. I learned how to not waffle and how to hold a conversation, how to take risks and actually be excited to fail.

I think women should wear whatever makeup they want for themselves. Makeup should be fun.

Success to me is my friends and family are healthy and happy and I feel good about myself at the end of the night and I can sleep at night.

It's definitely a shock to go from being 15 in high school to working. There's no real cushion there. There's no preparation at all. You learn by doing.
Emma Stone
That balance of love for your work and love in your life is an interesting thing.
Emma Stone
You usually get a script and you tell people what the story's about, and they have no idea what's going on. Whereas with an adaptation, you come into it, and it seems like everyone you talk to has a million opinions on the cast and the way the story should be told.
Emma Stone
People aren't stupid. People wanna see good movies, especially comedies. Those by the books comedies, I don't get it. Who likes those? Nobody likes those.
Emma Stone
When I did TV, I only did little guest parts, and it hasn't been that long. There is a kind of pressure in this job that comes from your work every day being there forever. But this is all part of the brand-new world that I'm discovering.
Emma Stone
When I feel something in my gut, I can feel it physically. But my instincts seem to come from a different place - they feel headier to me, and I get the wrong scent, and go off on these whims where I think that something is happening when it's not.
Emma Stone
Drama is this incredibly vulnerable thing, but with comedy, you have to have a sense of rhythm and be very sensitive to the pace of things.
Emma Stone
The importance of balance is huge but I think it is for everybody. It's a big issue for at least anyone that I talk to in any career.
Emma Stone
I'm into grilled cheese. Grilled cheese makes me feel beautiful!
Emma Stone
My hair is a battle. It's an uphill, fine, baby-haired battle.
Emma Stone
There's no right way. There's no measurement system. That's why, you know, art competitions are a little confusing to me. I mean, they're lovely, but so many people are affected by different people and different things in such different ways. And yeah, it's immeasurable.
