You know how people say awards don't mean anything? Hello! I think the energy around them makes everyone cuckoo.
Kirsten Dunst -
A lot of people my age who are working right now have never acted; they get a show and suddenly they're making millions. It's always those people who get it fast who have the most trouble staying grounded and being themselves.

I don't gossip about myself.
Kirsten Dunst -
I was a big Guns N' Roses fan when I was seven. My friend who lived across the street had long dark curly hair and I had long blonde hair, so I'd dress up as Axl and she'd be Slash, and we'd rock out in front of the mirror singing 'Patience.'
Kirsten Dunst -
It's such a private thing - 'my process' - I can just say that the work that I do is like therapy between me and the character.
Kirsten Dunst -
I'd like to grow up and be beautiful. I know it doesn't matter, but it doesn't hurt.
Kirsten Dunst -
It's always nice when people appreciate your work because it means you've affected them, which is great. And so that feels good.
Kirsten Dunst -
A lot of people my age, they grew up with me onscreen. I think that's helped keep a certain amount of longevity. When you grow up with a person, you feel like you know them.

I don't want to be 'box-office girl,' but I don't want to be 'that indie girl' either.
Kirsten Dunst -
I never read comics as a kid. I guess I was lazy and watched cartoons instead.
Kirsten Dunst -
I feel like I could never walk around a film half-naked. I definitely wouldn't want to see that.
Kirsten Dunst -
Doing 'All Good Things' really felt like I was acting for myself rather than anyone else. It gave me a freedom I'd never had before, or knew I had, to do whatever I want to, and to argue my opinions and not just feel like the cute girl on set or the girl in a boy's club. I figured out how I could be both. And it's been different ever since.
Kirsten Dunst -
I've been lucky to find people who want to work with me, whom I respect and like, but the truth is there aren't that many good projects out there. And we make way, way too many movies. So it's not always going to happen with every project. But I try and wait it out.
Kirsten Dunst -
I think it's best to date someone who doesn't do what you do.
Kirsten Dunst
-
I like people more undone than made up. Patricia Arquette is the ultimate. She's not anorexic or perfectly tan, she's not trying to be anything but what she is, and that's the most sexy thing.
Kirsten Dunst -
Everybody smokes! Models, actresses, everyone! Don't they realize that it's gross? I understand it's an addiction, but it still pains me to see my friends do it.
Kirsten Dunst -
I think every woman goes through a relationship where she is with a guy that is really not right for her. You get lost in it.
Kirsten Dunst -
I've been an REM fan since I was a little girl. I would jump around to 'Stand' in the mirror.
Kirsten Dunst -
Being an actress doesn't make you popular in school.
Kirsten Dunst -
You don't really know who you're going to fall in love with at what time in their life. They can be the worst off they've ever been in their life, but you can't help who you fall in love with. That's part of the excitement of life - new people, new experiences.
Kirsten Dunst
-
You can never control who you fall in love with, even when you're in the most sad, confused time of your life. You don't fall in love with people because they're fun. It just happens.
Kirsten Dunst -
I have gotten so many tickets. I hope I don't get my license revoked.
Kirsten Dunst -
I don't live in the spotlight, and I don't live my life in front of the paparazzi. I live very comfortably and quietly as possible.
Kirsten Dunst -
I can't imagine having a real personal thing, like divorce and marriage, all those things, being in the public eye. I try to not talk about anything personal, and then nobody has the fire to throw back at you, like 'You said this back then!'
