SCARLETT JOHANSSON QUOTES

I'm a little bit of an adult and still a bit of a kid. I hope I never lose enthusiasm for things like road trips and Cheerios.

SCARLETT JOHANSSON, Seventeen Magazine, May 2007

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?

SCARLETT JOHANSSON, PARADE Magazine, Mar. 11, 2007

I find beauty in unusual things, like hanging your head out the window or sitting on a fire escape.

SCARLETT JOHANSSON, Seventeen Magazine, May 2007

You work hard making independent films for fourteen years and you get voted best breasts.

SCARLETT JOHANSSON, Esquire Magazine, Nov. 2006

When I'm single, I don't focus. I focus on a guy if he's a boyfriend, but I don't focus on finding a boyfriend. They're never around when you want them.

SCARLETT JOHANSSON, Seventeen Magazine, May 2007

Contrary to popular belief, I'm not promiscuous. There does seem to be a mistaken belief out there that I am sexually available somehow — which is not to say that I'm not open-minded about sex.

SCARLETT JOHANSSON, London Telegraph, Dec. 10, 2006

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, Washington Post, Oct. 9, 2006

I do think on some basic level we are animals and by instinct we kind of breed accordingly. But, as much as I believe that, I work really hard when I'm in a relationship to make it work in a monogamous way.

SCARLETT JOHANSSON, London Telegraph, Dec. 10, 2006

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, London Telegraph, Dec. 10, 2006

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, Seventeen Magazine, May 2007

I once heard that women dress for women -- not for men -- and I think that has some truth to it. Men, what do they know? They don't know if you gain or lose five pounds. They're oblivious to those kinds of things. A lot of men will say "I like you just as you are." And you're like "But I'm bloated!" If they're attracted to you, they're attracted to you.

SCARLETT JOHANSSON, Cosmo Magazine, Sep. 2005

It's important not to lose who you are in a relationship just because it's nice to cuddle with somebody.

SCARLETT JOHANSSON, Seventeen Magazine, May 2007

Being a movie star is a quality that somebody sort of embodies, and being a celebrity is something that people give to you. It has to do with being recognizable, as opposed to something that people recognize in you. I just hope to make good movies. I know that sounds simple, but it's true.
