More quotes by Zooey Deschanel
I remember having this friend in school who said she didn't like the Beach Boys. And in that moment I knew we couldn't be friends anymore.
Zooey Deschanel
I get embarrassed a lot of times getting attention, but I like being onstage. Do you know what I mean? If I'm in a crowd of people and they're all looking at me, I will feel embarrassed. It's a strange dichotomy.
Zooey Deschanel
I don't think I'm very much like anyone else, really. I'm sure there are aspects of other actors that I share, but I don't see anybody else and go, Damn, they stole my thing. I'm me, and I like that there are people who have an appreciation for that.

Zooey Deschanel
You go to something like the Golden Globes, and it's the most glamorous place you could ever be, but then you go home and you're still like, 'Urgh, this dress is too tight, I wanna take off these shoes and put on my pyjamas.' At the end of the night all the glamour goes away and you're just a human.
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
No, I've been singing forever. I started out doing musicals. I think that was part of the reason why they gave me the part, because I sang.
Zooey Deschanel
Nothing's better than a picnic.

I love singing Christmas carols. I know every harmony to every music-hall Christmas song.
Zooey Deschanel
I appreciate a songwriter like Morrissey with so much restraint.

Change is hard, I should know. I should know.
Zooey Deschanel
I think every year I become happier because I become more comfident and more comfortable in my own skin.
Zooey Deschanel
Modern recording has made it so that people can spend forever taking shortcuts and making everything uniform, but that strips music of what makes it exciting.
Zooey Deschanel
