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.

The only time I flip out is when I'm not prepared. If I'm caught off guard, I can't help it I start gasping for air.
Emma Stone
I think as time goes on, I'm trying to get less fatalistic, because that's just one of those unhealthy, kind of dangerous head spaces to get in, of not being able to tolerate sustained positive energy.
Emma Stone
I wouldn't consider myself a so-called 'celebrity.' Arrrgh, for the love of God!
Emma Stone
A lot of times I feel like people come up to me because they think I'm like my character in Easy A, or because they've seen me in interviews, but really what they're a fan of is a movie or a character.
Emma Stone
I challenge myself to take at least one fashion risk a day, otherwise I get stuck.

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
I just told the whole truth and that felt really incredible and really scary.

Emma Stone
I find the worst audition is the no audition.
Emma Stone
There are so many different areas to explore. There are so many different types of people. It can crush your dreams or help them come true.
Emma Stone
I always thought it's way more important to be funny or to be honest than to look any certain way
Emma Stone
I try to do a lot of yoga and meditation. I think now it's creating things in times of waiting.
Emma Stone
I think 'Saturday Night Live', starting in the 1970s, really gave women an outlet to be funny. A lot of those women went on to have film careers, from Kristen Wiig now to Tina Fey and Gilda Radner.
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.
Emma Stone
My hair is a battle. It's an uphill, fine, baby-haired battle.
Emma Stone
I'm a big music fan, an admirer. But I mean by no means am I about to release an album or anything.
Emma Stone
The things that make you most mad about the world tend to be the things that you hate in yourself.
Emma Stone
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
Coming to the end of a long shot is brutal so when it's just me, if I mess up I can be like Sorry. I'm an idiot. Let's go again.
Emma Stone
I'm shockingly terrible at action movies.
