More quotes by Zooey Deschanel
Know what suits you. Now I understand proportion and recognise the shapes that look good on my figure.
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 like to learn things slow, I like learning alot, I like to get it all again and in the end, You know you get what you got...
Zooey Deschanel
I want to be a freaking feminist and wear a freaking Peter Pan collar. So freaking what?
Zooey Deschanel
I accidentally entered a youth pageant when I was 14. That's like a beauty pageant, but without the beauty. It was terrible.
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
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 would say I know nothing about the music business, in a nice sort of way. I totally forgot I was in that music video. That's so funny.
Zooey Deschanel
I also feel like it's the right of the people hearing them to have their own interpretations of what these songs mean. Sometimes people will see things that I don't see.
Zooey Deschanel
I've had experiences where I wasn't allowed to change words around at all because you have to say everything, exactly as written on the page. That's not fun for me. For me, part of being an actor is being able to contribute to a character's rhythms. If there's room to explore, you find a happy medium.

I'm a romantic, but I'm not a romantic in the traditional sense. I like to romanticize what happens to me. Whatever happens to me - you could quantify it as good or bad - I romanticize it. I think along the lines of 'When that thing happened, it made me who I am.' That kind of thing. It's a different way of being romantic.
Zooey Deschanel
It's a lot harder to do an ensemble because your energy is going in so many different places, and you have to cover everybody. You have to sort of split your attention.
Zooey Deschanel
I don't think there are that many awesome roles out there, whether we're talking about movies or TV.
Zooey Deschanel
I'm wary about this thing about being in the generation of social networking where people are like, 'I am my musical taste.' I am not just a collection of music. Or a collection of movies. I think that's a thing that people romanticize: 'Oh my God, she likes this band so she is a dream.'
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
Secretly, I think everyone who makes fun of California really does want to be in California.

If I were to work with my mom, I probably would not want her to play my mom. That would get too real.
Zooey Deschanel
There's something about guitars, they're just so big, you know what I mean? You're just like, 'Ugh!' It just seems so overwhelming. And the ukulele is, like, the opposite of overwhelming.
Zooey Deschanel
I wanted to be a child actor so bad that every day I'd beg my parents if I could audition, but my mom said, 'Not until you can drive yourself to auditions.'
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.
