More quotes by Scarlett Johansson
If you have breakouts, it can be really healing, it's a little bit stinky, but if you're not sleeping over at your boyfriend's, it's really effective
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
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 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
I am very independent. I can look after myself but I still need a lot of love and care.
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
Everything you do is different, and you find different chords in every character that you play that strike true with you.
Scarlett Johansson

Scarlett Johansson
I just don't like the feeling of knowing something that somebody else doesn't.
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 have always... expected a lot from myself.
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 can't think of anything I'd rather do less than have to continuously share details of my everyday life.
Scarlett Johansson
I love road trips, I love driving, I love finding little towns. I just think it's the best way to travel.
Scarlett Johansson
I'm just in work mode, and that prevents me from going into the Hollywood starlet mode, I suppose.
Scarlett Johansson
I believe that luck is opportunity meeting preparation.
Scarlett Johansson
I hope it never becomes normal to feel scrutinized.
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 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
[In London] there was definitely less need to wear my big sunglasses.
