I'm into sincerity in music and sincerity in art. If it doesn't feel true, I don't want to do it. Things that are too dramatic scare me. I think that's why I don't always fit into the world of performing arts.

More quotes by Zooey Deschanel
I've never pursued a role. I always hear stories about actors going after parts and I'm, like, 'How do they do that?' It seems so weird. It seems like a total myth or something.
Zooey Deschanel
I love singing Christmas carols. I know every harmony to every music-hall Christmas song.
Zooey Deschanel
I think my own personal style always ends up seeping into characters that I play. I've always had a very distinct idea of fashion for myself, and what a character should wear.

Zooey Deschanel
I get really insecure because even though I can speak in musician's terms, I don't know as much as real musicians.

Yeah, well, we were looking for something sort of anonymous. It suggests what it is, but I like that it's modest. I feel like that's an underrated virtue.

Zooey Deschanel
I don't know how to explain how, probably to my detriment, unselfpromoting I am. I used to have a cabaret act and I didn't even like to tell me people about that. I really hate selling myself.
Zooey Deschanel
I need a coffee to go with my coffee.
Zooey Deschanel
I'm not really that interested in pandering to an audience of people that are going to judge me before they hear me. If they hear it and don't like it, that's totally fine.
Zooey Deschanel
Especially in comedies, I think a lot of time the female characters are there to provide a balance for guys.
Zooey Deschanel
I have Pro Tools on my computer, and I make CDs all the time.
Zooey Deschanel
That is so personal, and it’s my pet peeve when people press you on it. And it’s always women who get asked! Is anybody saying that to George Clooney?
Zooey Deschanel
Do your eye shadow first, then your foundation. That way, you can clean up any mess without starting all over again.
Zooey Deschanel
Summer has always been my favorite season. I feel happier.
Zooey Deschanel
Not that there is anything wrong with confessional songwriting, there are plenty of people that do that I admire. I think it is great it just isn't how I do things.
Zooey Deschanel
I like romantic comedy as a genre, but I think it can get stuck in its ways.
Zooey Deschanel
Nothing's better than a picnic.

If 'New Girl' had been a movie, I don't know whether I would have been given the opportunity to do it.
