More quotes by Scarlett Johansson
My father is from Copenhagen and he lived there until he was in his late 20s. We always grew up with a lot of Danish culture at home. My mother is Jewish but we always celebrated Christmas because we loved the traditions of Danish Christmas.
Scarlett Johansson
I’m not telling people where to give money, but if there is to be a spotlight shed on me, then I’d like to direct that spotlight onto causes I think are worthy or onto interesting, progressive figures.
Scarlett Johansson
I would have loved to have gone into diagnostic medicine.
Scarlett Johansson
Everything you do is different, and you find different chords in every character that you play that strike true with you.
Scarlett Johansson
I don't know if I've got swept up. It's so shocking when you hear that Calvin Klein wants you for their new campaign. You're like who me?. I guess you have to decide where you draw the line between you saying, this is fun, pretty and fabulous, and being over-exposed.
Scarlett Johansson
Are people who want this kind of progressive change not turning up at polling stations? Are they not voting for progressive representatives? It's hard to put your finger on why we are where we are.

Scarlett Johansson
What about my brain? What about my heart? What about my kidneys and my gallbladder?
Scarlett Johansson
People are fed up - and I think quite rightfully so. But what are they proposing as an alternative to just being upset or feeling disillusioned or abandoned? That kind of protest movement really needs to happen on a much bigger scale, but there needs to be a clearer message.
Scarlett Johansson
As a person in the public eye, I have always felt that if I have the good fortune of being able to shed a spotlight on different causes that I feel passionately about...
Scarlett Johansson
I hope they make a video game of me. At least I wouldn't have any cellulite then.
Scarlett Johansson
Whenever I'm taking time off, all I'm thinking about is working.
Scarlett Johansson
I get tested for HIV twice a year.... One has to be socially aware. It's part of being a decent human to be tested for STDs. It's just disgusting behaviour when people don't. It's so irresponsible.
Scarlett Johansson
I'm all about fashion, cheeseburgers and bright-red lipstick.
Scarlett Johansson
I don't go to McDonald's anymore. After I saw Super Size Me... no way!
Scarlett Johansson
I'm always surprised that certain actors have Twitter accounts. I guess they use it in a way that works for them. But I'd rather that people had less access to my personal life. If I could keep it that way, I'd be a happy lady.
Scarlett Johansson
When we live our lives everyday, we're met by opportunities, and most of us don't even recognize them.
Scarlett Johansson
I just don't like the feeling of knowing something that somebody else doesn't.
Scarlett Johansson
I can't think of anything I'd rather do less than have to continuously share details of my everyday life.
Scarlett Johansson
I think people today are very cynical. They need to bring other people down. Reality television and tabloid magazinesnever before did we need to see movie stars taking out their garbage. But all of a sudden, it's front-page newstrying to figure out who's dating whom, all that stuff. Who cares?
