More quotes by Zooey Deschanel
Humor is a part of spirituality.
Zooey Deschanel
Sites like Funny or Die and College Humor are great, but I'd say it's appealing to 80% men and 20% women.
Zooey Deschanel
People sometimes say, 'Oh, you were a movie star,' and I'm like, 'No, I was a supporting actress.' I wasn't an A-list actress, and I'm fine with that. I'm proud of what I did in film.
Zooey Deschanel
I need a coffee to go with my coffee.

Nothing could be as hard as middle school.
Zooey Deschanel
I went to Northwestern because I had gone to a really nontraditional high school. I was like, 'It'd be cool to have a traditional college experience.' Then I was like, 'Oh, but none of these people understand what's cool about me. My specialness is not appreciated in this place.'

Zooey Deschanel
I'm a very positive person. I get excited easily, and I like to jump around.
Zooey Deschanel
If people just want to be famous, that's just not enough to get you up at 4 in the morning to go to work. You have to love what you're doing.
Zooey Deschanel
I can't go on Gawker. I actually think the writing is really funny, but there is a chance that somebody is undercutting me.
Zooey Deschanel
Women I admired growing up - Debra Winger, Diane Keaton, Meryl Streep - were all beautiful and thin, but not too thin. There are a lot of actresses who are unhealthy-skinny - much, much too skinny. You can't Pilates to that.
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 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
If 'New Girl' had been a movie, I don't know whether I would have been given the opportunity to do it.
Zooey Deschanel
I'm not cynical about love at all. I'm very practical. I think love takes up a lot of time.
