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 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?

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
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
It's so difficult to feel comfortable in the body you have. You always want to look a different way, taller or thinner, whatever it may be. I still struggle with it. I think everybody does.
Scarlett Johansson
I would love to work on Broadway, but I don't know that it would manifest itself in musical theater.... I have terrible stage fright that I'd have to get over.
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
Growing up I never got into comic books at all. I didn't have any inspiration for it.
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 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 don't feel the obligation to be a specific weight. I don't feel like I have to fit into a body that's not my body. I have the body I have and I try to maintain it.
Scarlett Johansson
