I am ashamed to say I auditioned three times before I even watched any of the [X-Men] movies. And then after I watched the movies, I was like, Oh my God, I've been doing it all wrong, why are they calling me back?

More quotes by Jennifer Lawrence
I think people are fascinated with breasts that bounce. They are so used to seeing fake ones – people are confused. My breasts have a life of their own.
Jennifer Lawrence
I really love acting. I really do. I really just think of myself like a working woman. And I just go from set to set and work. You have to promote a movie you have to work. People are going to have opinions and it's weirdly very easy to kind of block out the world because you have your own.
Jennifer Lawrence
I always feel like an idiot every time I fly first class because I’m a kid. And I just sit there, and everyone’s got their newspapers and they’re on the computer, and I’m like, 'Can I get a coloring book, please? Can I get some crayons?'
Jennifer Lawrence
You can't ever let yourself be thrown by a camera. That's never good for an actor. When you're reading the script, you want to work with someone you trust so there's nothing to worry about.
Jennifer Lawrence
But really, for the most part - doing a prequel is great because you do have room to kind of free this character and how they got to where they are instead of being a slave to exactly what the previous actor did.
Jennifer Lawrence
I mean, if we're regulating cigarettes and sex and cuss words, because of the effect they have on our younger generation, why aren't we regulating things like calling people fat?
Jennifer Lawrence
I'm doing what I love, and then I get months and months of rest. I have a lot of money for a 21-year-old. I can't stand it when actors complain.
Jennifer Lawrence
You don't go your whole life without laughing. It's just life.
Jennifer Lawrence
My husband is a very present husband, and that has made going to work feel easier. I don't feel guilty. I definitely feel less guilt because I know he's there during breakfast, lunch and supper if I'm not.
Jennifer Lawrence
I like the financial security because I know how hard it is for so many people who struggle to earn a living. I'm grateful I don't have to worry about money and I can live very freely and do something I love and get paid very well to do it. I tell my friends to slap me if they ever think I'm getting full of myself.
Jennifer Lawrence
I like to adapt to a director's way of working. I love doing that. Each director is so different, and you have to adapt to this new way of doing something. That's what's amazing to me. That's why I love directors. I don't want to director to have to work around me. I think it's more fun for me to come in on their thing.
Jennifer Lawrence
It's beautiful when you watch something good happen to somebody when it's well deserved.
Jennifer Lawrence
Sometimes I watch films that I can't believe got made. Especially because I read scripts that are truly incredible, that will never get made. I don't know who is behind those decisions. It's like you just have to doodle something on a page about the underdog who finally gets the girl and the film gets made.
Jennifer Lawrence
Seeing what is wrong and how it could be made right propels us into action, but in that action we often leave other people behind and don't give ourselves enough time to be present, or to stop and reflect. Leaders have to get comfortable with pausing in that uncomfortable gap.
Jennifer Lawrence
If a woman is determined, she will get what she wants because we are very determined creatures.
Jennifer Lawrence
There's always male roles I want to play. I'm so annoyed when I watch movies and go, That could have been played by a woman.
Jennifer Lawrence
I never studied acting, yet the first time I auditioned and did a cold reading, I surprised everyone for my honesty and limpidity. They told me I could play any role because I have no walls, I don’t put anything between me and the character I have to play.
Jennifer Lawrence
I run into grounded people all the time. Given, most of them are behind the camera. But I definitely by no means think I'm the only one.
Jennifer Lawrence
I've got five or six amazing friends that I trust and love, I know exactly who I am and don't care about anything else.
Jennifer Lawrence
Why would people have confidence in a female director when there are so few?
