The Quotable R/K
“I think romance is anything honest. As long as it's honest, it's so disarming." – Kristen
"I would just like to not admit that it has taken over my entire life. For myself, in my head, it’s the same as it was in the old days. " -Robert
"I wasn’t like a warrior, but I have never been that kid who doesn’t care a fig about anything. It’s just the way I’ve been brought up." -Kristen
"It was a really good audition. There was sort of just no question at the end of it. He was the only one that I didn't feel like I was acting with." -Kristen
"I really need to stay away from women born after 1988." - Robert
“I'm just a vessel. If I wasn't right, I'd be persecuted, and put on a cross.” –Kristen
"There was really nobody else that I could have done this with; it would have been such a lie." - Kristen
"She's the one who dictates it. I'm just like the tool. I'm a tool. I'm a big hard tool." - Robert
"I’ve never been attracted by money or fame . My desires are quite limited." –Robert
“He can’t lie. It makes things a little scary for him sometimes. But it’s my favorite thing about him." — Kristen
"You knew what you were getting when you hired actors who aren't Disney kids. We're actually going to consider the characters, and not just smile on our marks, and hope we're in focus." –Kristen
"I wore a T-shirt in kindergarten that said ‘Kick butt first, Ask names later’ on the back." -Kristen
"It was there from the beginning. The way Kristen and I reacted to each other just felt right." - Robert
"We went through a lot together. It is crazy to go through something that heavy in real life. At the end of it you are inevitably going to have something."- Kristen
"I am quite shy and people think I'm aloof. I want to be an actor, I am
just not very comfortable talking about myself." -Kristen
"I see love as an evolution of true friendship." - Robert
"I have weird personal space issues, and so I'll do anything to not have any touch-ups." - Robert
"He's a good actor and has a really insane work ethic. He is really sensitive. He's perfect. He's my perfect Edward." - Kristen
"He was so different from everybody else that came in." -Kristen
“It'd be amazing to have a relationship where you can say, I absolutely need you. That's sometimes how I feel about a cheeseburger.” ~ Robert
"Maybe if I was trying to sell it, I'd talk about it more." –Robert
"I don’t make a secret out of it. I just don’t talk about certain subjects because most of it is interpreted wrong."- Kristen
"I can imagine what it would be like to not like yourself very much, and to be kicking it alone. Also to feel like you're sort of smarter than everybody, but nobody gets it."- Kristen
"He never tries to make something happen, he just lets it happen."- Kristen
"It’s a strange thing, acting. It’s a business, it’s a job, everything like that. All it is, is self-reflection. You just never stop caring about people and I’ve never stopped doing that." -Kristen
“So I thought he was perfect for it. Gentle. He was very soft-spoken cause I think he was nervous, and I thought that was perfect.” -Kristen
"I just bought a place but I'm not giving up my bedroom. I refuse to not be able to go home."- Kristen
On proposing on the set of Twilight: “I can imagine doing it, but I just can’t remember, specifically, actually doing it. Kristen, she’s very much marriage material.”-Robert
"Did you know elephants purr? It's completely scary if you don't know what it is. They purr like cats, but their heads are so deep they sound like velociraptors. You feel it in the ground under your feet. So this big female started sniffing my foot—big female elephant, that is. She sniffed it so hard it came up off the pavement like her trunk was a vacuum cleaner. Then she took my entire body in her mouth. I was holding on to her head, and as I slowly let go she tightened her grip really carefully until I'm just upside down in her mouth and she's going through my pockets with her trunk, looking for peppermints. It was the best day of my life." -Robert
"Whatever sacrifices I've had to make as a rising star, my job makes up for it a hundredfold." –Kristen
“I cried when the elephant was wrapped,” or filmed her last scene, says Pattinson. “I never cried when anyone else was wrapped.”
"My mother was 17 and my father was 25 when they met, they’re still together and look very happy. I’ve grown up believing that you can stay with the same person throughout your life." - Robert
“Sometimes I think, 'To hell with acting,' and then I realize I could be working at a shoe shop, acting is much cooler." -Rob
“He’s sort of perfect in that he’s very flawed. And perfect in the way that he loves her. It’s unparalleled, it’s like - undeniably epic. I mean, it’s really very powerful. And if anybody ever made me feel like that, I probably would be like - huh (lost for words)” -Kristen
“It’s kinda sad that people cringe at the word ‘Marriage’. I think it’s cool to sort of say, Hey maybe it’s really nice, maybe you guys…Maybe If you’re in the right place, it could be the right thing for you.” -Kristen
"In the oddest ways, so many parallels can be drawn between my life and this series. Birthdays coincide, graduation, everything." –Kristen
“I had just seen Into The Wild and that’s the only reason why I went to the audition.” – Rob
“I never saw her as being weak. I always thought that it was such a bold and self-trusting thing to put yourself in a position of almost letting your boyfriend rip your throat out. She trusts her gut. She doesn't get too caught up in her own head.” -Kristen
“She wears her heart on her sleeve in a way that I don’t really think I’ve met another actress who does.”- Rob
"I think it's ridiculous that you need to look a certain way to be conventionally pretty"- Kristen
"Well screw that. I shouldn't be the superhero's girlfriend, I should be the superhero."-Kristen
“I've been asked a million times in interviews about being a role model. I don't really like to consider it. I'm aware that people look up to me, but I am myself for myself and not for anybody else.” -Kristen
"But she's not ashamed of it you know? She doesn't have to explain herself. She just feels what she feels ...especially to him." -Kristen
"He wanted to be hula-hooping with a match in his mouth. And then he wanted to light a match while I was juggling and he was hula-hooping, and he wanted to put it in my mouth and see if we could make our way over to each other." -Kristen
"I had the best ideas last night, and I was telling everyone, 'Listen, just leave it to me, I've got it all under control.' " - Rob
"I was like 'I can't juggle on stage in shoes. I can barely walk up the stairs.' " -Kristen
“It’s kind of terrifying if you suddenly stop winning it, you’re like ‘Oh God!’. It’s almost worse than if you stop winning like, acting
awards or whatever. If you can’t kiss anymore, it’s like 'What?! I’m still good at kissing!'”- Rob
"I'm too serious like I'm very logical. I don't have the mind that jokes around. I just start offending people when I start joking and I don't really wanna do that." -Kristen
"I cannot describe how good it feels to actually have something that is truly into your heart and soul actually affecting people. And that’s amazing. So that’s the biggest change." -Kristen
“I’m not interested in casual relationships, I need to get to know people. I’m not making an existential statement. I just want a family with two or three kids.”- Rob
"I'd quite like to be a young dad"- Rob
“I’m not the casual-affair kind of guy. If I choose to be with someone it’s because I really want it. When I have a relationship, I’m 100% into it. If I felt like seeing more women at once then I wouldn’t go around saying “this is my girlfriend”. -Rob
"I wish I didn't have to show up in these dresses — we look like demi-gods when we show up. I want to be able to run around and not have my feet feeling like they're going to fall off." -Kristen
"When you love someone you can tell. But when you're in love with someone, everyone else can tell" - Rob
"I love Eric. He's smart, you know? I like nerds. I would only go out with dorks." -Kristen
"I had to become a vampire to find the right woman"-Rob
“I kind of like crazy people, sort of. I like nerds.”-Rob
"People think I'm trying to be rebellious, but that's the last thing I'm doing. But I would hate myself if I tried to satisfy the people who have a problem with the way I speak about myself, so it's okay." -Kristen
"We totally have sex! FINALLY!" -Kristen
Kristen on who’s more competitive: "Rob. In a very childish way, in every aspect of his life. He'll literally start talking in a different voice if he's won something. He sounds like a five-year-old."
“We understand each other without the words.” -Rob
On who's most romantic: "I have a no-bullshit detector, so I'd have to say Rob is." -Kristen
"This is great. We haven't done an interview together in forever!" -Rob
“So we cut a lot of slack for not being cute. We weren't cute.” -Kristen
"I look at designer clothes on Rob and I'm like, 'I want those pants, man.'" -Kristen
“I felt like I’ve proposed to Bella about forty times already, so it’s like Finally! just get it over with. I’ve felt like I’ve done it at some point in each movie.” -Rob
“Twilight has really changed my life. It has allowed me to live in this world in which it’s almost impossible to find another way of living in it.” –Rob
"Reading a script and loving a character and not being able to play it -that's like having a crush on someone and not being able to f--- them."- Kristen
Rob: "I’m really good with the microwave. She makes noodles and meatballs."
Kristen: "I make canned meatballs and noodles. The best thing he knows how to do is opening a bottle of beer." "I've seen him grow a lot, and I've seen him get more comfortable with his position [as a celebrity]. But I also don't see any change in who he is."- Kristen "She's a unique girl. You really don't meet many people like Kristen." -Rob “Sincerity seems to be a problem today. But I prefer to be hated than be false and fool people."- Kristen "I don’t talk to anybody about my personal life, and maybe that perpetuates it too. But it’s really important to own what you want to own and keep it to yourself. " –Kristen "I was head over heels in love with Kate Moss." –Rob "I spent a long time trying to figure out how to play Edward's part without making a fool out of myself. The whole book is written from Bella's perspective and she's in love with him. I mean, the guy can be anybody — he could be an alien — and you see past everything if you're in love with someone." -Rob "It didn't feel like, 'Oh, how could you have possibly played this? It's so beyond your years!' It's like, 'Not really, dude, I could f------ get pregnant tomorrow.'" -Kristen “I know everyone thinks I wear black all the time, but I really do love vibrant colors.” - Kristen "I've always had an aversion to looking sexy, but I've grown out of it." -Kristen "I'd like to be like her. Well, I'm the fairest in the land. And I have a seriously good heart, really, for people who don't know me." –Kristen “It's just one of those things. I'm selfish. I'm like, 'That's mine!' And I like to keep whatever is mine remaining that way.”- Kristen “He’s British, he’s tall, he always looks like he’s thinking about something. And he’s quite witty. So he’s pretty sexy.”- Kristen “It’s not that you make peace with it, but you learn to accept it.” - Rob (on his fame) "It was weird because it was a real priest. So essentially me and Kristen are married now, cause we did the exact same thing as a wedding. We just didn’t have a civil union or whatever it is – not by law, but in the eyes of the church we’re actually married." -Rob "What if the love of your life was one of your family?" –Rob (when asked to choose between family or the love of his life) "I think I’m pretty much the only actor in the world who doesn’t go to the gym. I guess I have to, soon, for whatever reason people expect actors to. Like, no matter what part you’re playing, he definitely has a six pack! "–Rob "I think it takes a really ballsy person-and someone who really knows themselves-to be able to give it up and know that it’s worth it and know that the person they’re doing it with is on the same level."- Kristen “We’re just ridiculously happy together so those scenes came so easy, so naturally.” -Kristen on Breaking Dawn love scenes with Rob “Women like when you confirm ownership. Believe me, no one would dance with my girlfriend if he were her ex. Not happening on my watch.”- Rob “I don’t know if there’s much that would surprise people about Rob, except that he’s probably more fun-loving in private than may come across in public. -Kristen “If you follow your heart, you're never going to regret anything, even if you completely mess up constantly.” -Kristen “Some people say I'm anti-Hollywood, but I'm really not at all. I just think it's pretty weird to show up at things that you have no reason to go to.” –Kristen “Edward is a bit too open-minded,” Pattinson says. “I’d be like, ‘Don’t be an idiot.’ I’d get rid of this guy. I’d unleash on him — werewolf or not. Personally, I think your girlfriend or wife wants you to lose it and push away the other guy." "We're married in so many different ways. I kind of like the idea of that happening, though.” - Robert “The bed stuff was a little more technical and weird. Every time I was off camera I was making goofy faces at Rob to make him laugh. I couldn’t take it seriously. ”–Kristen on Breaking Dawn love scenes
