I've been watching a lot of Joni Mitchell YouTube clips and I can't believe her transformation from this folk singer in Canada.

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.

It's interesting, because as a musician, I don't feel like I need to be on the top of the pop charts.

I think it's better to have your personal life and your work life separate. That way they don't corrupt each other, so to speak.
Zooey Deschanel
I don't like plain nails. I get sad.
Zooey Deschanel
I was never no, never no, never enough, But I can try, I can try to toughen up.
Zooey Deschanel
I think I'd say that my whole body of work is a reflection of who I am, but not any one specific thing.
Zooey Deschanel
I grew up believing my sister was from the planet Neptune and had been sent down to Earth to kill me.
Zooey Deschanel
It`s not about women acting like man, it`s about women acting like woman and being sucsessful
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
I think comedy's just about being interested in comedy and what makes people laugh and experimenting.
Zooey Deschanel
Secretly, I think everyone who makes fun of California really does want to be in California.
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 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.
