We all have our essential nature. If you're good with numbers, you don't even know you're good with numbers because that's how your mind works.

More quotes by 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
What I did have was an incredible amount of belief in myself.
Zoe Kazan
There are a lot of words that I knew first as a reader, and I never put the pieces together in my brain. The word segue I thought was pronounced seeg, I think until I went to college, which is horribly embarrassing.
Zoe Kazan
I think even probably the people we look up to the most, and think are on the Mount Olympus of actors - they're still experiencing nervousness.
Zoe Kazan
I think, a lot of times, directors assume that whatever they get from you the first time, whether it be at an audition or on set, is all that you can bring.
Zoe Kazan
I wouldn't wear makeup, and I didn't like to let boys open the door for me because I felt like it was sexist.
Zoe Kazan
I feel lucky to receive such critical attention and praise when you're in a show that's going to last a month, it's just easier when audiences are more receptive. I've done two new shows this year, so I'm always excited to work on something a little older, traditional and structured.
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 had a real feeling of being fated to be an actor and do my work, and I remember so much speaking up in a room full of people who authentically knew as much or more than me, and feeling like I was absolutely equal, and what I had to say was important.
Zoe Kazan
I'm klutzy, and I don't embarrass easily.
Zoe Kazan
When you're in the editing room, as a director, you get the opportunity to look at your work. As a writer, you can rewrite. But as an actor, unless you're watching playback, you really rely on the director to help you.
Zoe Kazan
I'm not that interested in writing for myself. That's not where my impetus as a writer comes from.
Zoe Kazan
I don't have a lot of patience for boring arthouse movies.
Zoe Kazan
I think the written word is my first love. I was just a very imagination - centered child and a big part of that imaginary life came from reading.
Zoe Kazan
Too often in the theatre people can't wait for intermission to get some chocolate or something. But with Come Back, Little Sheba I just hope people leave feeling like they've spent a really good two-hours in that house with us.
Zoe Kazan
I don't like pretentious films or pretentious people.
Zoe Kazan
I'm pretty sure I ate ants in Mexico.
Zoe Kazan
My hero is Michelle Williams, who I grew close to when we did 'Meek's Cutoff.' She's an extraordinary actor and mom.
Zoe Kazan
I took a writing class in college, liked it, and my first year out of school I couldn't get a job, so I wrote a play.
Zoe Kazan
Half the fun is getting to play dress-up and imagine what it's like to be this other person. If you're not excited about a part where you get to use your imagination, then what's the point in doing it? It'll be just another job. Also, Director Michael Pressman and I see eye-to-eye with Marie.
