More quotes by Scarlett Johansson
It's so archaic. It's just, like, bizarre to me. I feel like in 10 or 15 years' time our children are going to look back and say, 'What? You were around when gay people weren't allowed to get married?'
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
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
When we live our lives everyday, we're met by opportunities, and most of us don't even recognize them.
Scarlett Johansson
I've been fortunate enough to travel with Oxfam several times, and they're always so well organized, so it was a good way to show the kind of work they're doing.
Scarlett Johansson
I wouldn't say I'm a serial monogamist ... I mean, I went through periods of time when I was, ah, single. But when I'm in a relationship, I'm in a relationship.
Scarlett Johansson
I try to stay fit and eat healthily, but I am not anxious to starve myself and become unnaturally thin. I don't find that look attractive on women and I don't want to become part of that trend. It's unhealthy and it puts too much pressure on women in general who are being fed this image of the ideal, which it is not.
Scarlett Johansson
I don't think about being sexy, being seductive. What you don't want to see is somebody trying to be sexy. That's the most unsexy thing.
Scarlett Johansson
It's nice to have a crush on someone. It feels like you're alive, you know?
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
My mom was always active. She was always an active voter, whether it was local, state, or federal elections. My mom would take us to polling locations when we were kids.
Scarlett Johansson
I always check in the mirror to make sure nothing is see-through.
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
I don't go to McDonald's anymore. After I saw Super Size Me... no way!
Scarlett Johansson
[In London] there was definitely less need to wear my big sunglasses.
Scarlett Johansson
There are people in America who are absolutely desperate right now, who have no means to support their families, who have no opportunities to better themselves or their education - and they're not that different from the farmers and working-class people that I visited when I went to Kenya with Oxfam.
Scarlett Johansson
I just don't like the feeling of knowing something that somebody else doesn't.
Scarlett Johansson
Do I think men are complicated? People are complicated! I don't know that there is one particular aspect of men in general that I don't understand - other than why do they have nipples? I thought we decided that men are just big, hairy apes.
Scarlett Johansson
Improvisation has never been my strong point.
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.
