More quotes by Scarlett Johansson
I'm good with dialect. Some actors do it immediately other actors never quite get it. It's something I've always really enjoyed and something I've always been pretty fast with.
Scarlett Johansson
You think that your life is going to be one way, and then, for various reasons or whatever, it doesn't work out.
Scarlett Johansson
If Occupy Wall Street was actually a march, and people from all around the country could collect and march toward Washington, D.C., as part of this massive movement of people . . . I think that kind of pressure is much more powerful than a sit-in that seems to be a little unorganized.
Scarlett Johansson
I'm happiest when I have something to focus my energy on.
Scarlett Johansson
It's important not to lose who you are in a relationship just because it's nice to cuddle with somebody.
Scarlett Johansson
I'm all about fashion, cheeseburgers and bright-red lipstick.
Scarlett Johansson
You read statistics all the time like, 13 million people are at risk because of the severe drought in East Africa, but I think those kinds of numbers fall on deaf ears - there's so much devastation in the world, that it's a bit overwhelming for people.
Scarlett Johansson
I want to look good, obviously. I don't want to look at the screen and go, Oh, my skin looks terrible, or, I look exhausted. That's why I take care of myself when I work.
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 believe that luck is opportunity meeting preparation.
Scarlett Johansson
I hope it never becomes normal to feel scrutinized.
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 think [being monogamous] is a natural instinct for human beings, but it doesn't mean I don't believe in monogamy or true love. I believe in finding a soul mate. Monogamy can be hard work for some people. I don't think it applies to everybody, and I don't think a lot of people can do it.
Scarlett Johansson
When we live our lives everyday, we're met by opportunities, and most of us don't even recognize them.
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
Whether people are in America or in Africa, people want to work. They want to have purpose. They want to provide for themselves and their families. They don't want handouts. They don't want to be completely dependent on their governments - even though there's usually no opportunity for that anyway.
Scarlett Johansson
I'm just in work mode, and that prevents me from going into the Hollywood starlet mode, I suppose.
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
I value my privacy and my personal life - and I certainly don't exploit my personal life.
Scarlett Johansson
I think people today are very cynical. They need to bring other people down. Reality television and tabloid magazines—never before did we need to see movie stars taking out their garbage. But all of a sudden, it's front-page news—trying to figure out who's dating whom, all that stuff. Who cares?
