More quotes by Zoe Kazan
I don't feel like I have a super straightforward relationship with the idea of fame. It makes me sort of level things out in my own brain almost immediately when I meet someone.
Zoe Kazan
When we do something we're not proud of, a lot of people don't want to look at that, people may say what people don't know won't hurt them.
Zoe Kazan
I don't like pretentious films or pretentious people.
Zoe Kazan
My grandmother told me: We all dated lots of different boys because no one was having sex or kissing. It was just going out for sodas and getting to know people. It didn't seem like there was a threat. I think now we have more ideas of people having premarital and unprotected sex.
Zoe Kazan
I don't love the word quirky. I think it's a word that's a catchall. It's a word that doesn't stand in empathy with the person, it stands in judgment of them. It's a very externalized word.
Zoe Kazan
When I would get close on a part but wouldn't get it, I would be like, They made a mistake, which is not how I think about things now. I both admire it and I'm grateful for the modicum of health, knowledge, and humility that I have acquired over the last 10 or 15 years.
Zoe Kazan
I've always really been interested in the Pygmalion myth and both what it has to say about creativity and what it has to say about relationships between men and women. I'd been thinking about what I would want to do with that if I was going to write on that theme, and one morning I woke up and Calvin and Ruby Sparks were in my head.
Zoe Kazan
You set up the story, but the characters start talking, and they go places that you didn't expect. You have to follow.
Zoe Kazan
I've definitely gotten to work with female directors, and I feel lucky because of that. I just feel like more voices should be represented.
Zoe Kazan
I never wanted to be a playwright.
Zoe Kazan
I'm pretty sure I ate ants in Mexico.
Zoe Kazan
I've gotten incredibly lucky with the people I've gotten to work with. It's made my mind better, and it's made me a better person.
Zoe Kazan
If I ever feel that acting is just soul-sucking and I don't want to do it anymore, I could stop.
Zoe Kazan
Anytime that I've felt uninspired, I don't force myself to sit down and write. I only do it when I feel the impulse.
Zoe Kazan
I've worked with a lot of really famous people. It stops being weird really quickly. For me, at least.
Zoe Kazan
And I think the female creative urge is intrinsically biologically linked to our ability to give birth to a child, even if we've never... I've never given birth, but I feel like it's part of our psychology.
Zoe Kazan
Nothing's going to come to you by sitting around and waiting for it.
Zoe Kazan
I would not wear any clothes that had a brand name on them, and I only read books that were canonical.
Zoe Kazan
If I'm not working, I don't feel complete.
Zoe Kazan
I just don't care that much about how famous I am. I care a lot about our world, and whether our planet will survive. It seems really low-stakes how many Twitter followers I have, in the grand scheme of things. In 80 years, who will care?
