I never wear pigtails, I wear plaits.
I don't have makeup on all the time, but when I want, I have fun with my friends choosing clothes and putting nail polish on.
I'm excited about the aging process. I'm more interested in women who aren't perfect. They're more compelling.
Field hockey is my strongest sport, and if I lose a game, I take a long, hot bath and moan about it.
I've had my breath taken away when a fan told me since watching my speech she has stopped herself being beaten up by her father. I've been stunned by the amount of men in my life that have contacted me since my speech to tell me to keep going, and that they want to make sure that their daughters will still be alive to see a world where women have power and equality, economically and politically.
Chivalry should be consensual.
I really believe that you have to earn things. I don't feel comfortable unless I have worked really hard.
Even worse than seeing women's privacy violated on social media is reading the accompanying comments that show such a lack of empathy.
this kiss between hermione and ron is highly anticipated, it's been building up for eight films now. and harry potter is not twilight, you know; we're not selling sex.

In Cancún, I felt like I had walked into an American teen movie.
I can't wait to be able to drive, but it's hard. Good driving doesn't really run in my family genes. My mother is possibly the worst driver ever.
I have to kind of like switch heads. Sometimes I manage it seamlessly, and other times I feel rather all over the place. I feel a bit schizophrenic, like I have a split personality.
Most people are really nice but some stare, like you're some kind of zoo exhibit and not a real person with real feelings.
