I think the number one thing that I find important is the importance of honesty with your friends and your parents, if you can be. But I think that telling people how you really feel, being who you truly are, being safe and taking care of yourself is the most important thing.
“What sets you apart may seem like a burden, but it’s not, and most of the time it’s what makes you great.” - Emma Stone
Confidence is the only key. I know a lot of people who aren’t ‘traditionally’ beautiful, not symmetrical or perfect-bodied or perfect-skinned, but none of that matters because all that shines though is their confidence, humor, and comfort with themselves. I can’t think of any better representation of beauty than someone who is unafraid to be herself.
“My parents are both very funny but they’re also relatively soft-spoken, normal human beings…I don’t know where this loud, ballsy, hammy ridiculousness came from.”
“To me, as her daughter who was not going through that incredible struggle, I had this insane amount of clarity. My mind is so muddled all the time with the past and the future, that it was like an inexplicable jolt into the ‘now’ the whole time that she was going through this. Because I realized — all you have is the present.”
“I’m a person who relies very heavily on intuition and feeling out the situation, so I’ve never really made a five-year plan or anything like that, if it’s right, it will fall into place and if not, I understand.”
— Emma Stone (via oh-emmastone)
“It was like I woke up when she came in. She was the last person to screen-test, and I was so bored of it by then that I was mucking about—I’d been pretending I was Tom Hanks or Seth Rogen. And then she came in, and it was like diving into white-water rapids and having no desire to hang on to the side. Throughout shooting, it was wild and exciting. I couldn’t help but try to stay with her, keep pace with her, and not let her get away. [Laughs] Like an animal preying on a smaller animal, but a wily smaller animal.”
— Emma Stone (via -eisforemma)
“I met her first at the screen test and I was like, ‘Oh, man, if I have to spend six years of my life talking about one thing over and over again to camera crews and stuff, I hope it’s with this person. She’s incredibly sweet, funny, down to earth, genuine, doesn’t take herself seriously in any way shape or form. She has that in buckets.”
“I just act on what I respond to. And I like strong females who are independent.”
- Emma Stone
”You’re only human. You live once and life is wonderful so eat the damn red velvet cupcake!”
When I was 14 -years-old, I made this PowerPoint presentation, and I invited my parents into my room and gave them popcorn. It was called ‘Project Hollywood 2004’ and it worked. I moved to L.A. in January of 2004.
“I was a good-looking kid. I never felt, like, dorky. I was just like, ‘Yup, these are my braces. I’ve had them forever.’”
“He’s incredibly talented and intelligent and intuitive. It means so much to him to be playing this part and just get to walk in Peter Parker’s shoes. He’s really just giving it his all and I’ve never seen anything like it… He’s one of the best, not just Spider-Men, but actors I’ve ever met…” - Emma Stone about Andrew Garfield
