¶ I need your impression.

¶ That's not up to you.

Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff from Avengers (2012)

¶ I'll persuade you.

¶ Regimes fall every day. I tend not to weep over that, I'm Russian... or was.

¶ Thank you for your cooperation.

¶ Natasha Romanoff: [Clint is waking up from Loki's mind control] Clint, you're gonna be alright.
Clint Barton: You know that? Is that what you know? I got... I gotta go in though. I gotta flush him out.
Natasha Romanoff: You gotta level out, that's gonna take time.
Clint Barton: You don't understand. Have you ever had someone take your brain and play? Take you out and stuff something else in? You know what it's like to be unmade?
Natasha Romanoff: You know that I do.
Clint Barton: Why am I back? How'd you get him out?
Natasha Romanoff: Cognitive re-calibration. I hit you really hard in the head.
Clint Barton: Thanks.

¶ Clint Barton: [Natasha has freed him from his restraints] Tasha, how many agents did I-?
Natasha Romanoff: Don't. Don't do that to yourself, Clint. This is Loki. This is monsters and magic and nothing we were ever trained for.
Clint Barton: Loki, he got away?
Natasha Romanoff: Yeah. Don't suppose you know where?
Clint Barton: [Shakes head] Didn't need to know. Didn't ask. He's gonna make his play soon though. Today.
Natasha Romanoff: We gotta stop him.
Clint Barton: Yeah, who's "we"?
Natasha Romanoff: [Shrugs] I don't know. Whoever's left.
Clint Barton: Well, I... if I put an arrow through Loki's eye socket, I'd sleep better, I s'pose.
Natasha Romanoff: Now you sound like you.
Clint Barton: But you don't. You're a spy, not a soldier. Now you want to wade into a war. Why? What did Loki do to you?
Natasha Romanoff: He didn't, I just...
[pauses]
Clint Barton: Natasha.
Natasha Romanoff: I've been compromised. I got red in my ledger. I'd like to wipe it out.

Riley Steele (1987- )

Riley Steele (1987- )

Riley Steele (born August 26, 1987) is an American pornographic actress.

Steele grew up in Escondido, California, United States, and before starting her adult film career worked at Starbucks and at a golf course snack bar. In 2005, being a huge fan of pornographic films herself, Riley Steele travelled all the way to Hollywood just for the signing for Pirates, where she met some of her favorite stars, including her personal hero, Jesse Jane. Jane advised her she could easily get into the adult film business herself, and gave Steele her card. From that, Steele contacted Joone, the founder of Digital Playground, who signed her to an exclusive contract that same day. Her first scene was in the 2008 film Pirates II: Stagnetti's Revenge, in which she also co-starred with Jane. In January 2011, she co-hosted the AVN Awards.

Steele appeared in the 3D horror film Piranha 3D as Crystal, a minor role.

In 2011, she appeared in TV Series: Life on Top and NTSF:SD:SUV.

In July 2012, Riley Steele announced her very brief retirement from porn along with fellow Digital Playground contract sister BiBi Jones, both citing unfulfilled promises by the adult industry. She later explained that this had been a joke which she had not expected people to take seriously. She said she passionately loved the adult industry, along with all her co-stars, and was enjoying herself far too much to ever think about quitting.

She also appears as the supporting character Kaylie on the HBO/Cinemax series The Girl's Guide to Depravity.

Rachel Nichols as Scarlett (Shana M. O'Hara) from G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009)

¶ Ripcord: Look, I think you and me got off on the wrong foot. See, I'm attracted to you. And you, you're attracted to me. And him, the damn Zen master, he creeps me out. What I'm trying to say is...
Scarlett: We're attracted to each other.
Ripcord: Thank you!
Scarlett: That's what you're saying. It's not what I'm saying.
Ripcord: It's not. So, what are you saying?
Scarlett: Attraction is an emotion. Emotions are not based on science. And if you can't quantify or prove that something exists, well, then in my mind, it doesn't.
Ripcord: Okay. I'll get back to you on that one.

Quotes·Quotation by Nina Dobrev

Celebrities

¶ It’s changed my life a lot, in many different ways. I came into it really new to the business, didn’t really know much. I learned everything on set here, made some really good friends. Everyone’s really positive – I love it. [on being part of “Degrassi: The Next Generation" ]

¶ People tell me that I look like her a few times a day. I think she’s gorgeous.

¶ When I have an audition I don’t pick up the phone, I sit at home and I dissect the scenes to the bone. There’s a lot of time and work that goes into it.

Challenge

¶ Every role is a challenge. I want to keep doing everything… I want to try to do things that aren’t similar to one another.

¶ It was challenging because it’s not me. I went to a lot of web sites that dealt with teenage pregnancy. I read a lot of stories about girls having to go through what Mia did [Mia is Nina's character on Degrassi]. There’s the alienation factor and there are all the stories and rumors, having everybody judge you. It isn’t easy.

Life

¶ (If given a chance at immortality) I don’t know if I’d want it. I live a pretty cool life, so I’m happy where I am.

¶ I came to L.A. for the first time in January of this past year. The Vampire Diaries was actually my first audition for a pilot. I read the script, and I loved it. I thought it was really cool and I’d just gotten off a series, so obviously I was trained and ready, and I knew the drill and everything to do with it. It just sort of worked out. [in a 2009 interview]

¶ I didn’t have a stage mom at all. I was the one who planned out my auditions and drove myself an hour and a half into the city. [in a 2009 interview]

Nina Dobrev as Elena Gilbert from Vampire Diaries

¶ They just don't care any more. They don't remember that our parents are dead, they have their own lives to deal with. The rest of the world has moved on. You should try to. [Vampire Diaries, Pilot 1.1]

¶ Dear Diary, Today will be different. It has to be. I will smile, and it will be believable. My smile will say, "I'm fine, thank you. Yes, I feel much better." I will no longer be the sad little girl that lost her parents. I will start fresh, be someone new. It's the only way I'll make it through. [Vampire Diaries, Pilot 1.1]

¶ Dear Diary, I made it through the day. I must have said "I'm fine, thanks" at least 37 times. And I didn't mean it once. But no one noticed. When someone asks "How are you?", they really don't want an answer. [Vampire Diaries, Pilot 1.1]

¶ All you can do is be ready for the good, so when it comes, you invite it in. Because you need it. I need it. [Vampire Diaries, Pilot 1.1]

¶ When you lose someone, it stays with you. Always reminding you of how easy it is to get hurt. [Vampire Diaries, 1.2 The Night of the Comet]

¶ I would write, `Dear Diary, Today I convinced myself it's okay to give up. Stick with the status quo, now just isn't the time. But my reasons aren't reasons, they're excuses and the truth is, I'm scared` Stefan. I'm scared that if I let myself be happy for one minute, that the my world's going to come crashing down and I don't know if I'll be able to survive that. [Vampire Diaries, 1.2 The Night of the Comet]

¶ Well, then say something about yourself.. anything. Otherwise, I'm left with nothing but what other people tell me. [Vampire Diaries, 1.4 Family Ties]

¶ No, I'm not okay with any of it. I'm not gonna cry about it either. Honestly, I'm not gonna be one of those pathetic girls whose world stops spinning because of some guy. [Vampire Diaries, 1.5 You're Undead To Me (2009)]

¶ Dear Diary, I'm not a believer. People are born, they grow old and then they die. That's the world we live in. There's no magic, no mysticism, no immortality. There is nothing that defies rational thought. It's not possible. I'm not a believer, I can't be. But how can I deny what's right in front of me? Someone who never grows old.. never gets hurt.. someone who changes in ways that can't be explained. Girls bitten.. bodies drained of blood.. [Vampire Diaries, 1.5 You're Undead To Me (2009)]

¶ (Thinks, and gets out of the car, with a determined face) No. You don't get to make that decision for me. If you walk away, it's for you because I know what I want. Stefan I love you. [Vampire Diaries, 01.10 The Turning Points (2009)]

¶ If you don't come with me, I'm going by myself. What? You're the one who told me that I could handle things on my own now. [Vampire Diaries, 03.02 The Hybrid]
