More quotes by Zooey Deschanel
I think the best comedies came out during the Depression. Personally.
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
Take it back Oh, take it back I don't want your lovin', anymore Let me live Oh, let me live It's not you who I sing for
Zooey Deschanel
I hate camping, but I love summer camp.
Zooey Deschanel
I don't have control over what's on screen, and that's terrifying.
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
I think comedy's just about being interested in comedy and what makes people laugh and experimenting.
Zooey Deschanel
I think I'm a fun flatmate. I'm always cheerful. I go on tour with my band so it's 12 people on one bus and I feel like I'm the one who's happy in the morning. I'm not a chaotic person, but I might slack off on doing the dishes from time to time.
Zooey Deschanel
I did not have a date to the prom. I went to my junior prom alone, and my senior prom, I was doing my first movie. I went in a limousine with, like, a bunch of people to my junior prom. It was a group date.
Zooey Deschanel
Don't allow the coldness and fear of others to tarnish your perfectly vulnerable beating heart.
Zooey Deschanel
In my mind, I always think of myself as an underdog type.
Zooey Deschanel
I mean, the idea that it might help somebody out or help somebody make the decision to become a stewardess or otherwise... No, that's one of the nice things about making music or making movies, is that art does have the power to affect people. I feel really privileged to be a part of that.
Zooey Deschanel
That is so personal, and it’s my pet peeve when people press you on it. And it’s always women who get asked! Is anybody saying that to George Clooney?
Zooey Deschanel
My mom told me when I get compliments to cover my ears.
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
After staring at origami directions long enough, you sort of become one with them and start understanding them from the inside.
Zooey Deschanel
I don't like to plan harmonies too much, because there's something fun that happens when you just sing a pass, then sing another pass, and layer them on top of each other.
Zooey Deschanel
I'm into sincerity in music and sincerity in art. If it doesn't feel true, I don't want to do it. Things that are too dramatic scare me. I think that's why I don't always fit into the world of performing arts.
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
In a lot of movies, you'll see people on crazy dates, and you're like, 'No one would ever do that!'
Zooey Deschanel
