I'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.

Why would I ever get cocky? I'm not saving anybody's life.

I'm from Kentucky. I used to be very personable and make eye contact and smile at people, and now all I do is look down. When I'm at dinner and one person after another keeps interrupting to take pictures, it's like, "I can't live like this."

I think there was the studio mentality for a long time that women and girls can relate to a male hero, but boys and men can't relate to a female hero.

I don't trust a girl who doesn't have any girlfriends.

At the end of the day, there's probably nothing that makes me feel better than junk food and reality TV.

I like the financial security because I know how hard it is for so many people who struggle to earn a living. I'm grateful I don't have to worry about money and I can live very freely and do something I love and get paid very well to do it. I tell my friends to slap me if they ever think I'm getting full of myself.
