Rebel Wilson

I’ve only met Brad Pitt once before. Well, I didn’t really meet him. I kind of just stood behind him and smelled his hair. It smelled really good.

If you’re wondering why I was only nominated for three of the categories tonight, it’s because I don’t swallow.

Welcome to the MTV Movie Awards I am a bit surprised they asked me to host… and so was MTV. They thought I was Adele.

I’m from the ghetto side of Sydney. We don’t really do drive-bys, we just do drive-thrus.

I am looking for a man I couldn’t beat in a cage fight.

I think I appear very innocent and soft, but I’m actually very dark and edgy. It’s a weird dichotomy.

To tell the truth I cannot call my childhood bad. In your childhood you can’t compare things: one eats carrots, one eats candy, both taste good. As a child you cannot tell the difference.

With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us. We as parents, are their most important role models.

You can’t cheat kids. If you cheat them when they’re children they’ll make you pay when they’re sixteen or seventeen by revolting against you or hating you or all those so-called teenage problems. I think that’s finally when they’re old enough to stand up to you and say, ‘What a hypocrite you’ve been all this time. You’ve never given me what I really wanted, which is you’.

Youth is a wonderful thing. What a crime to waste it on children.

I was a regular hand when I was 7. I picked cotton. I drove tractors. Children grew up not thinking that this is what they must do. We thought this was the thing to do to help your family.

I was born on a plantation, and things weren’t so good. We didn’t have any money. I never thought of the word ‘poor’ ’til I got to be a man, but when you live in a house that you can always peek out of and see what kind of day it is, you’re not doing so well. And your rest room is not inside the house.

Children’s talent to endure stems from their ignorance of alternatives.

We can aim to create a culture, where kids ask for healthy options instead of resisting them.

I was brought up in a very ordinary family, in fact, a worker’s family. Both my father and mother were ordinary citizens.

It is the bliss of childhood that we are being warped most when we know it the least.

[Postpartum depression] is something that’s completely uncontrollable. It’s really painful and it’s really scary and women need a lot of support.

And let’s be clear: It’s not enough just to limit ads for foods that aren’t healthy. It’s also going to be critical to increase marketing for foods that are healthy.

I think, at a child’s birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift would be curiosity.

I have so much more to go through as a young lady. But oh my God. I feel like I can do anything.

The English have no respect for their language, and will not teach their children to speak it.
