Robert Pattinson

Twelve was a real turning point for me as I moved to a mixed school, and then I became cool and discovered hair gel.

I don’t really see the point in washing your hair. If you don’t care if your hair’s clean or not then why would you wash it?

Up until I was 12 my sisters used to dress me up as a girl and introduce me as ‘Claudia’! Twelve was a turning point as I moved to a mixed school and then I became cool and discovered hair gel.

My dream job is being a pianist.

Since I started acting it’s kind of been a bit mad. I never really did anything before and two years ago I started acting and I’ve kind of been in work ever since. Then Harry Potter came along and it’s been a huge step and a massive event in my life.

[On his first red carpet experience] I walked out the wrong car door and started walking into the crowd, An interviewer said, ‘Give your best horror scream,’ and Stan did this great scream and I was too much of a wimp to do one. It was pathetic!

I’m the type to swallow my blood ‘fore I swallow my pride.

I was always loud and obnoxious and giggly and funny.

Music is split up now into little pockets.

The show doesn’t go on because it’s ready; it goes on because it’s 11:30.

[on the MTV movie awards] Ryan was whispering in my ear as we’re winning the award. He’s like, ‘You go that way, I’ll go this way, and we’ll meet in the middle. I was like, ‘What?!? You better not chicken out or I’ll kill you!’ It was fun.

I walked into this industry blond with red lips, and I will leave this industry blond with red lips. Mark my words.

A hero is someone who understands the responsibility that comes with his freedom.

Apparently, I don’t know if this is true but I hope it is, I’ve heard it from a few reports, when we went up to get our awards apparently Clint Eastwood turned to someone that he was with and went, (Clint impression) ‘Who the f**k are they?’

Down the road, I’ll probably have a kid or two or three. And there will probably be political events or spiritual things to comment on, and humor.

I don’t see Johnny Depp as attractive!

The only way I could get comfortable around people was to make them laugh. I was an obedient girl, and humor was my one form of rebellion. I used comedy to deflect. Like, ‘Hey, check out my zit!’ – you know, making fun of yourself before someone else has a chance to.

If you retain nothing else, always remember the most important rule of beauty, which is: who cares?

When onstage, I always try to take my audience through as many emotions as I possibly can. I want them to go from laughter to tears, be shocked and surprised and walk out the door with a renewed sense of themselves – and maybe a smile.

Thats the worst thing, I dont really care if people say I’m a bad actor, I can like work on that, but if they just say that he’s ugly thats just like “oh.. really?

In those days I don’t think they were even demos.
