Quote

When I dance, I look like I'm a dad at a prom. I never grasped my limbs. Ever since puberty I've just kind of felt like we don't understand each other.

Where are the Robert Redfords and Paul Newmans of my age group? I love James Franco, but where's the next James Franco? Where are the hunks who can act?

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.

As hard as it is and as tired as I am, I force myself to get dinner at least once a week with my girlfriends, or have a sleepover. Otherwise my life is just work.
Jennifer Lawrence
Image
I never play characters that are like me because I'm a boring person. I wouldn't want to see me in a movie.

I learned that you can't have any expectations with life. You never know what's going to happen.

Be strong. Don't be a follower, and always do the right thing. If you have a choice between the right thing and the wrong thing, the right way is always the less stressful.

I'd like to think that I have a plan, but you can't really pick what scripts you're going to get or what movie is going to come along.

What's so sad is when we're younger, if you have a bad parent, that is normal to you and that's what you think of as healthy.

When I'm not working, I am the laziest person. I can literally lie on a couch and watch television for 15 hours.

I hate saying, 'I like exercising.' I want to punch people who say that in the face.

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.

I find a certain peace by thinking of me in public as sort of an avatar self. You out there can have the avatar me.

It's so easy to think that this [celebrity] is reality that people are lining up outside just to write down what I have to say. That's not real that's weird.

In Hollywood, I'm obese. I'm considered a fat actress. I eat like a caveman. I'll be the only actress that doesn't have anorexia rumors! I'm never going to starve myself for a part. I'm invincible. I don't want little girls to be like Oh, I want to look like Katniss, so I'm going to skip dinner!

I do have big ambitions, but I think we all do. I just want to keep working hard and being happy.
Jennifer Lawrence
Image
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.

I just don't like that you can either be ugly and smart or pretty and dumb, or ugly and nice or pretty and mean.
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.

I'm excited to be seen as sexy. But not slutty.

Sometimes if a script is based on a book, that's what you should do: represent the book.
