“I read a lot of things about myself that aren't true … I've read that I've been with people I've never met.”

Scarlett Johansson (1984) American actress, model, and singer

As quoted in "Wilde about the girl" in The Sydney Morning Herald (13 June 2005) http://www.smh.com.au/news/Film/Wilde-about-the-girl/2005/06/12/1118514919678.html
Context: I read a lot of things about myself that aren't true … I've read that I've been with people I've never met. It's nice not to have any attachment, but, likewise, it's nice to have a boyfriend. I'm open to that. But it's hard, when you're working constantly, to spend enough time with someone.

“I would never say "I'm straight, I'm bisexual, I'm gay." I feel like I will fall in love with a human being for who they are. I'm not afraid to say I've been attracted to a woman before and I've kissed girls before and been in love with them before. I've never really had a girlfriend or anything and I would never say I'm anything, really. I don't have an identity in that way.”

Kate Nash (1987) English pop singer and actor

For the childhood I've never known.”

“I've deliberately chosen a career where I've worked with people who work on issues that deal with those who have the least among us, because I've never shaken, never been able to shake the caste that I come from.”
