Stone: "I do find that I'm drawn to people in my life, romantically or not, that have something to teach me. I'm drawn to people who I feel like I can learn from. I'm not really drawn to toxic people—I don't find myself discovering that someone in my life is toxic very often. But there is some sense of being changed by each person that I think I'm drawn to."

Stone: "Success is such a fleeting thing. I've seen how the careers of people I look up to ebb and flow, so I don't get carried away by it."

Stone: "What sets you apart can sometimes feel like a burden, and it's not. And a lot of the time, it's what makes you great. So, I kind of sound like I live in a van down by the river right now."

Stone: "I'm not great about my hair. And I have, like, feathers where hair should be! It's really, really fine. My hair is a battle. It's an uphill, fine, baby-haired battle."

Stone: "You won't hear me saying I have no body issues because I wouldn't be human if I didn't."

[On her biggest vices, which she jokingly answers]

Stone: "Sugar, wine, and black-tar heroin. That's pretty much it, the heroin, the sugar, and the wine—nothing too crazy."

Stone: "Flaws are my favorite part of people, usually."

Stone: "My favorite bit of wisdom is that if you knew everyone's story, you would love them. You can't really hate anyone if you know everything that happened to them between their birth and now, why they became the way they became, why they have walls up or down. If you truly know someone, you'd get it."

Stone: "What's strange about the way my brain functions is that the only thing that has ever made me feel calm is knowing clearly what I want."

Stone: "I won't make a bucket list because I'm so afraid that I'll die and then people will find my bucket list and be like, 'Oh, she didn't get to do that....' There is stuff that I'd like to do or experience but nothing that would crush me if it didn't happen."

Stone: "You're a human being—you live once and life is wonderful, so eat the damn red velvet cupcake."

[On Beauty advice that turned into a morbid realization that we'd all be bones someday]

Stone: "Everyone at the table…were just jaws-open horrified. But it's true! We're all going to die, and we're not going to have faces anymore. So do what you want with your face, because it will be a skull pretty soon."

Stone: "I think this is a wonderful time for women. I think the tide is turning, and there are so many brave, authentic, strong, and funny and vulnerable and exciting women in every industry right now."

Stone: "When I sit in my house for too long, I think too much—but I really like sitting in my house."

Stone: "My revenge has only ever been in silence. My mom has always told me, 'Kill them with kindness,' because being nice is a way to get at people who have done you wrong. With revenge, I've never felt like it's worth the energy. Silence is better. If you have nothing nice to say don't say anything at all, right?"

Stone: "I always thought it was more important to be funny or honest than to look a certain way."
