More quotes by 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
Growing up in Hollywood meant there were a lot of film stars' kids at my school - but no conspicuous wealth. It wasn't cool to show off that you had money.

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 was doing about five movies a year for many years. I was just so tired. I walked around feeling like a Mack truck hit me.

'Pastoralia' by George Saunders is one of my favorite novels.
Zooey Deschanel
The moment you sense someone is making something because they think people are gonna buy it or like it, it's just so phony! The public has a nose for phony like nobody else.

Love is individual to each person and I don’t think you can define it before experiencing it because it isn’t going to be the same for everybody.
Zooey Deschanel
I like singing as much as I like acting, and all through high school I thought I might be a Broadway singer.

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.
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
Making movies, you're like an independent contractor - you come in, you have a specific job, and a lot of what you do is completely manipulated, which is good and bad.
Zooey Deschanel
I think that if you haven't been to the grocery store in a really long time, it's really easy to get very out of touch.
Zooey Deschanel
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.
Zooey Deschanel
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
I think every year I become happier because I become more comfident and more comfortable in my own skin.
Zooey Deschanel
Certain aspects of my personality are always going to come out on-screen. I guess that's just me - if they say I'm quirky, I'm quirky. It's better than being boring.
Zooey Deschanel
It's interesting, because as a musician, I don't feel like I need to be on the top of the pop charts.
Zooey Deschanel
I like to play the ukulele, but I'm not, like, awesome at it. I mostly play the piano and the guitar.
Zooey Deschanel
I love movies and I love to watch movies and being a part of the whole film experience. Being a filmgoer is a unique experience, and it can affect you on so many levels. But being an actor in movies you often have a very narrow palette for expressing yourself.

I appreciate a songwriter like Morrissey with so much restraint.
