Being a movie star is a quality that somebody sort of embodies, and being a celebrity is something that people give to you. it has to do with being recognizable, as opposed to something that people recognize in you. i just hope to make good movies. i know that sounds simple, but it's true.

More From Scarlett Johansson

I have ever been opposed to banks, - opposed to internal improvements by the general government, - opposed to distribution of public lands among the states, - opposed to taking the power from the hands of the people, - opposed to special monopolies, - opposed to a protective tariff, - opposed to a latitudinal construction of the constitution, - opposed to slavery agitation and disunion. this is my democracy. point to a single act of my public career not in keeping with these principles.

And then the spirit brings hope, hope in the strictest christian sense, hope which is hoping against hope. for an immediate hope exists in every person; it may be more powerfully alive in one person than in another; but in death every hope of this kind dies and turns into hopelessness. into this night of hopelessness (it is death that we are describing) comes the life-giving spirit and brings hope, the hope of eternity. it is against hope, for there was no longer any hope for that merely natural hope; this hope is therefore a hope contrary to hope.

Quality doesn't mean deep blacks and whatever tonal range. that's not quality, that's a kind of quality. the pictures of robert frank might strike someone as being sloppy-the tone range isn't right and things like that-but they're far superior to the pictures of ansel adams with regard to quality, because the quality of ansel adams, if i may say so, is essentially the quality of a postcard. but the quality of robert frank is a quality that has something to do with what he's doing, what his mind is. it's not balancing out the sky to the sand and so forth. it's got to do with intention.

I'm not really a movie star. no matter what i do in acting, whether i'm good, how much work i get, whatever, i never will be a movie star. because i never think of myself as one. you are a movie star because you think of yourself as a movie star and always have.
Thinking Acting Think Of You
I'm not a movie star like other actors in the way that i need to walk around with a bodyguard. my goal is just to get some interesting parts and make enough money to live free. otherwise, to be a movie star, it's a lot of compromise and also a lot of headaches. you can't do what you want. you become a prisoner of your fame. this happened to me in france and i don't want it. i want to go to the terrace of a café, have a coffee. i have no problems with the fact that people recognize me, i'm very glad about it, but to be a movie star is kind of unreal for me.

There's no doubt in my mind, though, that the iraqi people would be better off with a different leader who did not waste their oil on weapons, as opposed to education, as opposed to healthcare, as opposed to food, as opposed to roads, as opposed to clean water. it is really sinful, a crime, what saddam hussein has done with the wealth of the iraqi people over the last 30 years.
