I feel there are tone singers, and there are more vocal gymnastics singers. And I think that's amazing when people can do that, but I think there's room for the tone singers. And there aren't a lot of them.

I already have the weird experience of having a name for myself personally that's connected to someone that's in the public eye. So you have me, Zooey Deschanel, and then there's Zooey Deschanel's public persona.

Girls get competitive, as though there's only one spot in the world for everything _ but that's not true. We need to stick together and see there's more to life than pleasing men. It's important not to cut yourself off from female friendships. I think sometimes girls get scared of other girls, but you need each other.

That people equate being girlie with being nonthreatening … I mean, I can't think of a more blatant example of playing into exactly the thing that we're trying to fight against. I can't be girlie? I think the fact that people are associating being girlie with weakness, that needs to be examined. I don't think that it undermines my power at all.

In an ideal world no one would talk before 10am. People would just hug, because waking up is really hard.

The average person tells a few white lies.

I feel like making music because - and this has much to do with the way I was able to make this record - there's more of myself in it.
Zooey Deschanel
It's really fun to say no sometimes. I just don't want to discount how fun it is to say no and exercise your right to say no, and - as a girl - it's important to know how to say no... and that no means no!
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.

I'm a person who gets better with practice. Getting older is awesome - because you get more practice.

If I'm going to be 'too' anything, 'too cute' is fine. I love puppies. So what? Who hates puppies?
