Zooey Deschanel
I like having a schedule. I tend to be the type of person that thrives on something being regular.
Zooey Deschanel
And you go into a supermarket and every tabloid is like, 'Pregnant and Alone!' Stuck in the 1950s ideal of how a woman should live her life. This brings out the fiery feminist in me.
Zooey Deschanel
I'm a person who has a lot of energy. So, yes, I don't really stop to rest or de-stress. I just keep going. I figure that if you don't stop, then you'll never notice how tired you are.
Zooey Deschanel
I played a lot of sarcastic, wisecracking characters for a long time, and people would think that was me. And it's very much not me, and then people would think I was being sarcastic when I wasn't: 'Oh, you're making fun of me right now.' And I wasn't!
Zooey Deschanel
For those of us who try to keep remembering, Try to do our better than our best. Think of all the children in the drifts of snow. Winners never quit, but winters never rest.
Zooey Deschanel
In a lot of movies, you'll see people on crazy dates, and you're like, 'No one would ever do that!'
Zooey Deschanel
It's nice that there are movies and songs about romance - it's what motivates us as human beings. I'm all for being brainwashed by rom-coms.
Zooey Deschanel

Zooey Deschanel
I always choose roles that are, you know, hopefully different from the last role. I don't wanna do the same thing over and over again because that's, well, first of all that's no fun.
Zooey Deschanel
Certain aspects of my personality are always going to come out on-screen. I guess that's just me - if they say I'm quirky, I'm quirky. It's better than being boring.
Zooey Deschanel
I think I'd say that my whole body of work is a reflection of who I am, but not any one specific thing.
Zooey Deschanel
I've personally never wanted to be 'the babe', and refuse to let vanity get in the way of my acting because I don't see my job as being a beautiful person.
Zooey Deschanel
There are a million examples of not feeling the jazz, but using the jazz.
Zooey Deschanel
I want to be a freaking feminist and wear a freaking Peter Pan collar. So freaking what?
Zooey Deschanel
Don't allow the coldness and fear of others to tarnish your perfectly vulnerable beating heart.
Zooey Deschanel
I think penguins are cute.
Zooey Deschanel
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.
Zooey Deschanel
I wasn't really the most charming person, socially - it took me a long time to develop my people skills - but the one place I was always comfortable was onstage, acting or singing.
Zooey Deschanel
I sort of consider myself a comedic actress, not a comedienne. I think it's different. You know, I'm not a stand-up or anything, but playing into comedic situations is sort of where, I think, my strength lies.
