I never wanted to be an actor. My dad was an actor, and he never brought joy home, so I didn't view it as something that I would want to do.
Jennifer LawrenceWhy can't we just be nice? It's like, we grow up, and then we get right back into high school.
Jennifer LawrenceI'm never going to starve myself for a part. I don't want little girls to be like, 'Oh, I want to look like Katniss, so I'm going to skip dinner.' That's something I was really conscious of during training, when you're trying to get your body to look exactly right. I was trying to get my body to look fit and strong-not thin and underfed.
Jennifer LawrenceOnce I'm obsessed with somebody, I'm terrified of them instantly. I'm not scared of them - I'm scared of me and how I will react.

I just creepily stared at her.
Jennifer LawrenceI don't really diet or anything. I'm miserable when I'm dieting and I like the way I look. I'm really sick of all these actresses looking like birds I'd rather look a little chubby on camera and look like a person in real life, than look great on screen and look like a scarecrow in real life.
