More quotes by Emma Watson
The character is everything that I felt really strongly against - she's superficial, materialistic, vain, amoral. She's all of these things, and I realised that I really hated her. How do you play someone that you hate? But I found it really interesting and it gave me a whole new insight into what my job, or my role as an actress, could be.
Emma Watson
Don’t think I’m going off to find myself though. I already know who I am.
Emma Watson
I genuinely haven't really had a rebellious phase. I think it's just because of the way I was brought up. I think it's because I left home when I was ten years old.
Emma Watson
I can be 100 years old but I will always be proud to say I was in Harry Potter.
Emma Watson
My grandma said - when I was really young and I'd sing along to the radio - why do you sing in an American accent? I guess it was because a lot of the music I was listening to had American vocalists.
Emma Watson
I don't know anything about American history or presidents. I don't know what tailgating is! I've never been to an Olive Garden!
Emma Watson
I've found that if ultimately, if you truly pour your heart into what you believe in, even if it makes you vulnerable, amazing things can and will happen.

WE ARE STRUGGLING FOR A UNITING WORD BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT WE HAVE A UNITING MOVEMENT.
Emma Watson
If we stop defining each other by what we are not and start defining ourselves by who we are we can all be freer. And this is what HeforShe is about. It’s about freedom.
Emma Watson
I don't know who this quote is by but the friends that you can call at 3am are the ones that really count and I am lucky that I have a few of those. So, I just drew on that and the people who believe in me as they lift you up. It's really important to have people around you that do that.
Emma Watson
It's important to read because it's really good for your vocabulary. It's really good for your imagination. I enjoy reading because I find it relaxing.
Emma Watson
Both men and women should feel free to be sensitive. Both men and women should feel free to be strong... It is time that we all perceive gender on a spectrum not as two opposing sets of ideals.
Emma Watson
We don't often talk about men being imprisoned by gender stereotypes but I can see that that they are and that when they are free, things will change for women as a natural consequence.
Emma Watson
As an actress I take roles I find interesting.
Emma Watson
Most people are really nice but some stare, like you're some kind of zoo exhibit and not a real person with real feelings.
Emma Watson
It is my belief that there is a greater understanding than ever that women need to be equal participants in our homes, in our societies, in our governments, and in our workplaces.
Emma Watson
I like Valentino a lot - they never use actresses in their campaigns.
Emma Watson
We want to try to galvanize as many men and boys as possible to be advocates for change.
Emma Watson
I looked at [Geena Davis] research and see things like 21 percent of filmmakers are women, only 31 percent of speaking roles in popular films are female - you start seeing it everywhere. It's so much bigger. So you've uncovered this groundbreaking data and research.
Emma Watson
You might be thinking who is this Harry Potter girl? And what is she doing up on stage at the UN. It's a good question and trust me I have been asking myself the same thing. I don't know if I am qualified to be here. All I know is that I care about this problem. And I want to make it better.
