I'm a feminist, but I think that romance has been taken away a bit for my generation. I think what people connect with in novels is this idea of an overpowering, encompassing love - and it being more important and special than anything and everything else.
— Emma Watson
I have felt for the last 10 years I have had this battle; I've been fighting so hard to have an education. It's been this uphill struggle. I was Warner Bros' pain in the butt. I was their scheduling conflict. I was the one who made life difficult.
My friends are all really nice about my fame, they're just curious really, they ask lots of questions.
I feel like a voodoo doll. It's grim. It's gross.
I want to be a Renaissance woman. I want to paint, and I want to write, and I want to act, and I want to just do everything.
I thought, If people are going to write about what I'm wearing, then I would wear young British designers who need the publicity.
Hermione is so close to who I am as a person that I've never really had to research a role. I'm literally rediscovering what it means to be an actress.
If anyone else played Hermione, it would actually kill me.
I think when you take away all, like, the premieres and press stuff and all the special effects, then you just come down to the fact that it's all about acting, and I think that has been the best bit for me.
I'm going to do what I want to do. I'm going to be who I really am. I'm going to figure out what that is.
I have had no control over my life. I have lived in a complete bubble. They found me and picked me for the part. And now I'm desperately trying to find my way through it.
I stole a piece of the chess set on the first film. I took a piece of the treasure out of Bellatrix's vault on this film. And I've taken my wand and I've got my cloak.
I really love animals and enjoy working with them.
Hermione uses all these big long tongue twister words. I don't know what she's going on about half the time!
