More quotes by Emma Stone
I always loved acting and improv and sketch comedy and theater, which I did at a local youth theater.
Emma Stone
Oh yeah, waiting sucks.
Emma Stone
I'm just trying to keep my head above water as I learn how to act. I feel like I have so much to learn, it's insane. The only thing I know is that I don't know or have a grasp on anything other than this one thing that's within me, whatever that is, so I'm just trying to trust that.
Emma Stone
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.
Emma Stone
My hair is a battle. It's an uphill, fine, baby-haired battle.
Emma Stone
Anything that can be perfect is very damaging for my psyche.
Emma Stone
My stylist has really great taste - Petra Flannery has really great taste. I mean, I am opinionated, and as time goes on, as I've gotten to see more dresses or more clothes, it's easier to say, 'I like that' or 'I don't like that,' but it's nothing I would ever, you know, design.
Emma Stone
I guess every musician looks forward to a point where they can just kind of make an album that truly is like a nice art album.
Emma Stone
I think that might also be part of the life of a creative person - those sort of ups and downs and security and insecurity. It's just part of the lot in life when you're pushing yourself and hoping to always keep growing and expanding. It's emotionally tricky.
Emma Stone
Gambles are the most fun because it's part of being an actor or being a creative person. It's risky only in the vulnerable sense. And then outside of that, no one gets too hurt by it.
Emma Stone
The things that make you most mad about the world tend to be the things that you hate in yourself.
Emma Stone
I really like grammar. And spelling. I was a spelling-bee kid. I'm hard-core about grammar.
Emma Stone
I could never be Charlie Chaplin. But the films that were made by people like him, or Gene Wilder, or John Candy, the people that inspired me so much were the people that were able to combine humor with heartbreak so beautifully and fluidly. Those films I think were what inspired me to want to come to L.A. and audition for movies.
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
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
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 just want to do a good job with each role that I take and continue to better myself as an actress because that's what I love about this job... being able to act and work with so many different people on such a wide range of projects.
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
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
If I feel strongly about anything, I get overwhelmed with emotion.
