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.

More quotes by Rashida Jones
In high school, I was on the youth advisory council for the Mayor's Office of Los Angeles, and that was kind of my first experience in the bureaucratic system. We tried to get things done, and nobody was really interested in getting anything done.
Rashida Jones
In early high school years, I was pretty chubby, and I spent a lot of time on my computer, before it was cool to have a computer - because there was a time that was true. So that's where I developed my personality.
Rashida Jones
Well, I'm not a method actress by any stretch of the imagination so the best thing that I can do is be as real as possible and find whatever commonality in that character that I can see myself.
Rashida Jones
Spy plots are hard, really hard.
Rashida Jones
I'm a sponge. I'm obsessed with comedy. I'm obsessed with the idea that you can make somebody laugh, and I love to be around people who can make other people laugh.
Rashida Jones
I tend to leave the house without makeup all the time. I'm kind of lazy that way.

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
I don't really mess with Instagram much, but I get why people love it. Because to me, it's better to tell a story through a picture than 140 characters.
Rashida Jones
I have a lot of skepticism about marriage and monogamy.
Rashida Jones
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.
Rashida Jones
Control the publics perception of you and nobody will care if you have any talent.
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.
Rashida Jones
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.
Rashida Jones
I don't think that there's been one example in history where somebody has openly talked about their personal life and it's done them any good.
Rashida Jones
It's hard to find female leads that are flawed and interesting and dynamic.
Rashida Jones
Invest in your brain, invest in your talents. Those things can appreciate and they get better as you get older.
Rashida Jones
I know that in life there will be sickness, devastation, disappointments, heartache - it's a given. What's not a given is the way you choose to get through it all. If you look hard enough, you can always find the bright side.
Rashida Jones
The minute you feel like there's nothing left to learn, whether it's with your career or life, you're done.
Rashida Jones
You can't be an openly gay movie star. You can't be an openly gay pop star, really - minus Ricky Martin.

Caring about what people think of me decreases everyday.
