More quotes by Zoe Kazan
If I'm not working, I don't feel complete.
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
I'm not that interested in writing for myself. That's not where my impetus as a writer comes from.
Zoe Kazan
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.
Zoe Kazan
I really love people. I love to meet people. I'm curious about people.
Zoe Kazan
I feel like a lot of my work on stage, I've gotten to play a wider range of characters than I have on film. This feels closer to who I am than stuff I've played on stage, or, like, Olive Kitteridge.
Zoe Kazan

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
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.
Zoe Kazan
I've worked with a lot of really famous people. It stops being weird really quickly. For me, at least.
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 find playwriting to be incredibly difficult compared to screenwriting. Part of it is that I grew up watching movies and not watching plays.
Zoe Kazan
I hate going to bed. I read scripts, clean, listen to the radio - I've fallen asleep to 'This American Life' more times than I can count!
Zoe Kazan
There aren't a lot of movies being made about women, period. Most of the time, the roles that are available are the sidekick, the friend, the girlfriend or the wife, and they just aren't that interesting.
Zoe Kazan
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.
Zoe Kazan
I'm pretty sure I ate ants in Mexico.
Zoe Kazan
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.
Zoe Kazan
If I was born into a household with anxiety about money, I wouldn't have had as much freedom to be in my own world. So it's impossible for me to divorce the privilege of my childhood from the other things.
Zoe Kazan
I never wanted to be a playwright.
