Quote

I was a vegetarian for a really long time, from 7 to 23, so I feel like some things aren't that weird but they seem weird to me, like blood sausage or snails. Those are things I've eaten now that, years ago, it would have been totally improbable that I would have eaten.

I would not wear any clothes that had a brand name on them, and I only read books that were canonical.

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.

On a personal level, just for me in my own work, I would say the most interesting thing has been getting to work with the people that I've worked with.

I'm always disappointed after an audition when I don't get a part and I hear, Oh, she was too X, or too Y, and it's too much of a quality.

My hero is Michelle Williams, who I grew close to when we did 'Meek's Cutoff.' She's an extraordinary actor and mom.

Every piece of writing I've done has been something where I feel like I need to get this out of me, whether it's a seed of something personal or an anxiety that turns into a play or an image that's in my mind and haunts me that I'm trying to investigate.

In New York you can just walk out and be among people. You're on the subway among people, you go to cafes, you can talk to people.

I'm klutzy, and I don't embarrass easily.

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.

Image
I love to act and that's sort of my first love. That's what I started out doing.

Image
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.

Image
I have a lot more writing experience than Paul Dano has, so to be able to put that experience to use in exercising his vision was almost an acting exercise: How would I write if I were Paul? When I look at it, it feels so completely his, but it's also mine.

I'm used to very low-budget situations. In 'The Exploding Girl,' we were literally changing in Starbucks because we didn't have trailers.

Image
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.

I find playwriting really painful. I love it, or I wouldn't do it, but I don't love the theater as much as I love movies.

Image
I am very much in the instant-gratification camp. I am too much of an actor not to be. I am used to doing my work and having someone comment immediately. So I think that I'm a little hooked on that gratification structure.

Image
I think from my earliest childhood, I liked to tell stories, put on plays and write things. It's funny to think of it as an artistic bug because I didn't necessarily want to be an artist. It's just who I was and how I communicate.

Image
There's part of me that's grateful for the delusion, because it takes a very hard shell to get started as an actor, and I don't have a very hard shell.
Zoe Kazan
Image
I find playwriting to be incredibly difficult compared to screenwriting. Part of it is that I grew up watching movies and not watching plays.

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?
