More quotes by Rashida Jones
For the most part, having more money and more fame make your life harder. It just does. I've seen it happen with people. You know, it's so hard to stay normal. It's so hard to stay happy. It's hard to remember why you were doing what you did in the first place.

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
I have a lot of girl friends who are very adept at making friends, and guys are just not.

I think it's a relatable concept - when you have a long-term relationship or marriage, and you want to try to be friends with that person, because you kind of grew up with that person and they know you better than anyone, and how it's just impossible to make that transition seamlessly.
Rashida Jones
I have a lot of skepticism about marriage and monogamy.

I know what it's like to have my heart broken. It is not adorable.

You can't really invest in your looks as the only thing because it's a depreciating asset. It's like putting money into a stock that's going down.
Rashida Jones
For the most part, it is really nice when people come up to me, because I do think that people who are awkward relate to me, and that's really nice. It's generally good.
Rashida Jones
It's hard to find female leads that are flawed and interesting and dynamic.
Rashida Jones
People don't believe this, but Hollywood really is a meritocracy.
Rashida Jones
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.
Rashida Jones
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
I've never been in a writer's room.
Rashida Jones
I know my mom said as early as she can remember letting me watch TV, my one treat a week when I was like 6 was to stay up and watch 'Saturday Night Live.'
Rashida Jones
I think every girl has that a guy she has trouble letting go of.
Rashida Jones
I have friends who have no choice they came from whatever town, they didn't have anybody in entertainment and they just knew they wanted to act and they did it.

Spy plots are hard, really hard.
