I don't feel like it's a time to be shy about raising my voice, and I don't think that the things I'm raising my voice about should be alienating. If it's alienating to a fan base, then I'm not responsible for that.

More quotes by Zoe Kazan
I have mad luck. I'm super-good at games like backgammon or anything that requires rolling dice.
Zoe Kazan
What I did have was an incredible amount of belief in myself.
Zoe Kazan
When I'm writing, I look like a fool because the parts are moving through me and I'm crying and laughing and making faces.
Zoe Kazan
Most adults get to a point in their careers where they feel secure, where they have a body of work behind them that will ensure longevity, and for actors, it's just not like that. You're basically always a temp, going from job to job.
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.
Zoe Kazan
And then the really awful thing is that at the end of the day after crying and experiencing things, then you look at what you've written and you're like, 'Hmm, there's half a page that's good here.' Then you throw out everything else.
Zoe Kazan
I have a sister that I'm very close with, and that relationship is probably the most intense relationship of my life to date, probably of my life, period. I think that when you're close with a sibling, especially a sister, it's a relationship unlike any other.
Zoe Kazan
I really love people. I love to meet people. I'm curious about people.
Zoe Kazan
I quite enjoy a high-waisted cotton panty.
Zoe Kazan
And when I get bored, it's like the worst parts of me come out. I really veer to self-destructive tendencies quickly.
Zoe Kazan
I think most actors jump at the chance to do something where the camera's on them all the time.
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
I'm not that interested in writing for myself. That's not where my impetus as a writer comes from.
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
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
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?
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 read a lot of plays as a kid, but I didn't see that many plays, so I feel better-versed in film history and film structure. I just think it's easier to think in pictures.
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 always wrote. My parents are writers. It just seemed like something people did.
