I like to make colored xeroxes of things. I clip out pictures of Liza Minelli and her husband from magazines and I fax them to people anonymously.

More quotes by Zooey Deschanel
I will wear tights even if it's 100 degrees outside. Tights are my safety blanket.
Zooey Deschanel
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.
Zooey Deschanel
I think the best comedies came out during the Depression. Personally.
Zooey Deschanel
Know what suits you. Now I understand proportion and recognise the shapes that look good on my figure.
Zooey Deschanel
For me, writing is 75 percent procrastinating and 25 percent actually sitting down and working.
Zooey Deschanel
I've been watching a lot of Joni Mitchell YouTube clips and I can't believe her transformation from this folk singer in Canada.
Zooey Deschanel
I just feel like growing up in Los Angeles, you learn, 'Well you're never gonna be the prettiest girl in the room, so just don't even try.' I mean, I care about being pretty, but it's not my most valued thing.
Zooey Deschanel
It's very much a piece of myself when I write a song. I don't mean to say it's very personal, like the lyrics mean something personal to me. When I write a song, that's my taste in music - my taste in chord progressions and melodies.
Zooey Deschanel
I just like music that sounds like music. Not like machines and computers and things that you design to make things sound slick and perfect.
Zooey Deschanel
I can't even remember the first time I started singing.
Zooey Deschanel
I'm always trying to do stuff I haven't done before or challenge myself so I'm not resting on my laurels all of the time because if I just found my little niche and never left it, I'd be pretty boring, I think.
Zooey Deschanel
When I exercise, I like to take lots of different classes because I want to really apply myself and feel like I'm learning a new skill. Not that I ever want to have to demonstrate any of those skills!
Zooey Deschanel
I work almost completely year-round, since I was 18 or 19. It's nine months a year, and then you're out of town, (there are) crazy hours and all of the things that go with filmmaking, which is a pretty all-consuming business, although I'm very blessed to be a part of it.
Zooey Deschanel
I have had brown hair and bangs since I was 2. One year I dyed it blonde, which felt so weird.
Zooey Deschanel
I grew up believing my sister was from the planet Neptune and had been sent down to Earth to kill me. I believed this because my sister Emily convinced me of it when I was a toddler. I think she'd seen Invasion of the Body Snatchers and her imagination ran away with her. There's a part of me that still believes it.

Every show is unique some shows have the master plan and have everything figured out and that's just the way they do things. It's like high school. Some people write their papers the second they get their assignments, and some people write it the day after it's due.
Zooey Deschanel
In a sense, I like to think of the live performance as something different than the record, not necessarily looking to exactly recreate the record. Sometimes Matt and I just do duets folk-style. Part of the fun of seeing a live show is having it be different from the way that you hear it in your bedroom or wherever you listen to music.
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'm always doing something musically - when I'm working or when I'm off.
Zooey Deschanel
I think there's a certain space people have decided I occupy - the funny-sidekick thing.
