- After her infamous Oscars fall, “You guys are just standing up because you feel bad that I fell and that's really embarrassing, but thank you.”
- "Don't worry about the bitches" - that could be a good motto, because you come across people like that throughout your life.' - Marie Claire
- "Reality TV is my silver lining. At the end of the day there's probably nothing that makes me feel better than junk food and reality TV." - Marie Claire
- On her voice, "I think I sound like a hermit, a deep, chain-smoking hermit." - The New York Times in 2012
- "Not to sound rude, but [acting] is stupid. Everybody's like, 'How can you remain with a level head?' And I'm like, 'Why would I ever get cocky? I'm not saving anybody's life. There are doctors who save lives and firemen who run into burning buildings. I'm making movies. It's stupid.'" - Vanity Fair in 2013
- On fame, "It gets overwhelming, where I'll cry in my car, but not to the point where I don't want to do what I'm doing." - The New York Times in 2012
- "I don't have many talents: I'm not a good cook, I can't clean, and I can't sew. The only thing I can do well is shoot a bow and arrow — which I learned to do for The Hunger Games and will probably never come in handy — and act. Imagine me 100 years ago: I would have been pointless." - W Magazine in 2012
- "You do become more aware of your mortality as you get older. When you're little, you jump on any wild horse. Then you get a little bit older and realize how fragile life is, and you're more careful." - W Magazine in 2012
- On her childhood, "Growing up, I lived 15 minutes away from a horse farm, and I went there almost every day. My brothers were into fishing, but I was all about the horses." - Seventeen in 2012
- About life in LA, "Sadly, I cannot live in Los Angeles I don't understand how actors can do it. You have no life here. You are followed everywhere. It's not like that anywhere else in the world. I don't want to stay in LA and start thinking that's reality — because it's very far from normal. I still love movies. I'm just going to love being in them from Kentucky, or Prague, or somewhere else." - W Magazine in 2012
