When a thing you love faces adversity, you start to feel more protective of it. Also, you take an inventory all the time. You ask yourself, Is this worth all my fighting?
Rashida Jones
Image
I love guys and the way they think they're so straightforward - and women can learn from that.
Rashida Jones
Image
I would be an idiot to say comedy is easy, but it does come naturally. It never feels forced.
Rashida Jones
Image
Ads featuring real women and real beauty are such a necessary component to offset the potentially dangerous programming out there for little girls.
Rashida Jones
Image
I think I'm a natural appreciator of comedy. I was definitely not the girl in junior high that all the guys wanted to date. They wanted to date my friends - which was great, because I had to be funny.
Rashida Jones
Image
I'm a comedy geek so anything comedy related, whether that's standup shows, improv shows, I'm all over that. That's my favorite way to be entertained always.
Rashida Jones
Image
I pretty much borrow my entire beauty regime from my mom.
Rashida Jones
Image
I don't think any other emotion is the equivalent of laughter. So I do whatever I can to laugh all the time and to hide my pain.

Image
I'm friends with a lot of my exes, but it took time. We didn't just get into it. I don't think you can be friends until you're cool with them dating someone else. That's when you know.

Image
I have six brothers and sisters. We all look totally different: blonde hair, curly hair, green eyes, dark eyes, dark skin, light skin. It's just how it is.

Image
It's such a fortunate life, if you can work as an actor.
Rashida Jones
Image
People don't believe this, but Hollywood really is a meritocracy.
Rashida Jones
Image
There's a sense of entitlement and isolationism that I think is really dangerous, and the way globalization and technology have been used isn't really for the best.
Rashida Jones
Image
I think there is this thing where people are impressed - it gives you a leg up in the sense that people won't treat you like a run-of-the-mill actress. They'll assign smart to your word bank, your adjective bank.
Rashida Jones
Image
I probably wouldn't be acting if I didn't grow up in Hollywood.
Rashida Jones
Image
I'm not easily offended. I have a pretty high tolerance for raunchiness or shock value, so I'm the wrong person to use as a gauge.
Rashida Jones
Image
I think there's just an inherent burden of being alive and being a woman. No man would ever admit that, but I think women know it, which is: You know more than men, you know more than most people you're dealing with every day, and you know that's it up to you to make things move forward, and you get paid half as much, but you just do it.

In my twenties I would be skeptical of a bad haircut, but once you turn thirty it's more about whether he a nice person and does he open the door for me. Once you turn thirty-five, it's more about would he make a good father. And even if you're just liking somebody and digging on someone, I think you can't help but think in those terms.

Just because a situation is grim doesn't mean you don't have every right to smile.

With acting, the stark reality for women is that it's nearly impossible to get older in an elegant fashion as an actress. Either you're fighting your age, or you're having to own it in a way that feels inelegant, or you're Meryl Streep and you're an angel from God.
