I've played a lot of fathers in my life, and it seems that my kids are getting older and older in films, and I'm always surprised at how good they are.
Chloe Grace MoretzDon't front, don't put something out there that you feel isn't realistic and doesn't portray who you are. Just be yourself, be you, and don't be afraid to speak your mind.
Chloe Grace MoretzI follow the most random people on Twitter. I follow famous people like Khloe Kardashian, who surprisingly makes really funny tweets all the time.
Chloe Grace MoretzI have learned never to judge any of the characters that I portay. Sometimes that is difficult to do because as a human being we tend to make judgements when we find out information about people and situations. In order to bring a character to life, though, I find that I cannot judge her or I won't be true to her.
Chloe Grace MoretzOn social media, like on Instagram and stuff that I post, and the way that I view myself, and portray myself on there, that's definitely a much more personalized take. I'm not collaborating with people to make that, it's my own social media platform in which I'm - it's not a character, it's just me.
Chloe Grace MoretzI think because I have quite a normal family and I'm bored with how normal my family is. I want to mess stuff up a bit. I chose the messed up characters because I find that that's acting. I want to explore emotions that you otherwise wouldn't be able to explore.
Chloe Grace MoretzFilm team kept me very, very shielded when I was that young, because of course, I was seven years old. You know, you're still kind of reading. It's still kind of like, "Cat." "Dog." "Ann jumped over fence." So I guess in a way it helped me progress in school, too, because I was reading so much and memorizing so much. But they kept me very shielded from everything that was going on in the The Amityville Horror. I didn't know anything, basically, about the film. I just knew that it was a scary film. I wasn't allowed to watch it. I can watch it now, I'm just too scared.
Chloe Grace MoretzI choose every role, in association with the other ones. I try not to do one thing, over and over and over again.
Chloe Grace MoretzI used to have a sister, but I never got to meet her because she died after two days, I think. So if I got a tattoo, it would probably have to be something to do with my sister.
Chloe Grace MoretzI get to wear Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen and crazy stuff, but of course, my mom would never in a million years let me buy that. She won't even let me buy my own pair of skis!
Chloe Grace MoretzI wore my first pair of Louboutins during this press tour. It was absolutely amazing, they weren't heels, they were little shoes, but they were velvet and they were blue.
Chloe Grace MoretzAs Chloe, I can honestly say I've never uttered a syllable of a curse word, not even behind closed doors.
Chloe Grace MoretzMy mom's the one I look up to for everything. I feel like I'm a lump of clay and she's moulding me into a woman.
Chloe Grace MoretzI think the best roles are in dark movies. It's roles that aren't you. It's fun playing someone that's not me. If I'm playing me all the time, then it's not acting. It's just being yourself.
Chloe Grace MoretzI actually work at my craft, and I actually want to be the best in my category, and I want to be a true actress. And a lot of people just want fame, and there's a huge difference.
Chloe Grace MoretzI can't stand [female] characters that are not empowered in a certain way, or at least don't come to a conclusion at the end of the movie where they find empowerment in themselves.
Chloe Grace MoretzIf I'm talking to a photographer, I'm talking to a stylist, I'm talking to a makeup artist, we're kind of creating and collaborating and making something that is artwork and is special and is different.
Chloe Grace MoretzI truly hope you realize how important setting goals are for young women, teaching them we have so much more to offer than our bodies.
Chloe Grace MoretzI think a lot of things can be misconstrued in a lot of ways. And I think if people open their minds more, and they try to look deeper into something than just something that is a very big, hot, fiery button to hide behind...I think if people looked into something bigger that I was trying to speak upon, they wouldn't be so easy to fire back silly, miscellaneous things.
Chloe Grace MoretzI come from the mind-set that, if you want it to work, it will work, whether it's a friendship or a relationship. If you're both in the same mind-set and you want to be together and you want to make it work, you can make it work. It just takes dedication and knowing that there might be some miscommunication and lack of communication sometimes.
Chloe Grace MoretzA lot of people are like, 'So you want to be famous.' And I'm like, 'No, I want to be good at my craft. I don't care about fame, I don't care if I even ever make it. As long as people know what I am as an actress in this business, I'm set for my career right now.
Chloe Grace MoretzIt's hard to confront someone without knowing, [but] I think the first thing you should do in a relationship - any kind of relationship - is confront. Then, if they seem shady, maybe go for the email or the text message.
Chloe Grace MoretzI live a very privileged life, obviously. I'm an accomplished actor, I have a very solid normal family, tons of siblings, and a mother that loves me.
Chloe Grace MoretzYou really get caught up in this system of the world - the Instagram world, society - we really get caught up in what our friends want and what our jobs want. I think the priority in life is to feel secure and safe and solid, truly. Just feeling good, just being okay with sitting alone. I think that's a big thing people need to realize and get used to that it's okay to be alone. It's good to be alone, and you need to be able to sit by yourself and just be peaceful and silent, and learn to read a book again; learn to just be. It's hard to be when you are so used to static input.
Chloe Grace MoretzThe best thing about having four big brothers is you always have someone to do something for you.
Chloe Grace MoretzAs an actor you always want to be challenged and you always want to have someone tell you you can't do something, because I always want to be like "I can do it and I'll show you I can, and I'll do it better than anyone can".
Chloe Grace MoretzI have a lot of looks but right now I'm really into grunge. Messy hair, black heels. I get Michelle Pfeiffer with it.
Chloe Grace MoretzMy mom has always said that if I get a big head, she'll take me out of this business as quickly as I got into it.
Chloe Grace MoretzI hate when things are sugar-coated. I'd rather have the ugliest truth than the best lie.
Chloe Grace MoretzI love the spontaneity of plays and of being onstage, because that's an energy that you can't really fabricate in movies.
Chloe Grace MoretzThere's such a stigma around girls' periods, and women's sexuality - girls can't speak out for themselves or be who they want to be. I think that coming from the social platform that I have, I try to be a positive influence, and this was something that I felt needed to be seen and heard.
Chloe Grace MoretzWhen you're a pilot, and you know all the ways to survive an airplane crash and how low the chances are, you feel safer.
Chloe Grace MoretzOf all the characters I've played, I relate the most to Isabel in Hugo. She's so adventurous and fun. She just loves reading books and those are her adventures. Isabel is a heightened version of my personality.
Chloe Grace MoretzMy mom was always like, "If you love it, do it. If she's actually having fun, and I know that my kid is having fun, she's gonna do whatever she wants. Whether that's gymnastics, learning the car, acting or just being a normal kid, she's gonna do what makes her happy." That's how I've always lived my life.
Chloe Grace MoretzMy brother, who's my acting coach, he can be like, "That sucked, Chloe. You need to pick that up. You're not thinking right now. Seriously, think." It's a good harsh reality, because my family keeps me very grounded.
Chloe Grace MoretzWhen I've done gymnastics, ballet or soccer - I was always trying to be the best. I'm really driven. Really driven.
Chloe Grace MoretzTV shows and stuff give people in the show business very bad names. I'm not going to name any shows, but a lot of shows.
Chloe Grace MoretzI'm only 13, so I can't say "life experiences." So, basically, I had to... act! I had to make up character that is very old. I guess that's why they call it acting - you do draw from some stuff in your life, I guess, but it's not real life. You have to fake it.
Chloe Grace MoretzI just got my phone back yesterday. My mom had it for two days. I was supposed to read a book and I really wanted to play Call Of Duty.
Chloe Grace MoretzI hope Let Me In doesn't encourage it! I mean, vampires might be real! Honestly, I don't know. It's like saying aliens are real. I don't know. We are so tiny in the spectrum of the universe, we're a speck of dust compared to some galaxies, and so who knows what's out there? We barely even know our own - we know more about space than we know about our own sea.
