When you work on a movie, especially an independent movie, it's a lot of work to make it! It's not just our job as actors - so many people are working so hard, and even the littlest movie takes a lot of work.

More quotes by Zooey Deschanel
Girls get competitive, as though there's only one spot in the world for everything _ but that's not true. We need to stick together and see there's more to life than pleasing men. It's important not to cut yourself off from female friendships. I think sometimes girls get scared of other girls, but you need each other.
Zooey Deschanel
In my mind, I always think of myself as an underdog type.
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
The internet's like one big bathroom wall with a lot of people who anonymously can say really mean things. It's fine, I believe in freedom of speech and I think people should think what they want, but I don't care to hear it.
Zooey Deschanel
It's strange because a lot of people are like, 'You can't change human nature-people are inherently negative.' I don't think that's true. If you expect the best from people, they'll step up.
Zooey Deschanel
I actually did a lot of improvised movies or movies that were partially improvised.
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
And you go into a supermarket and every tabloid is like, 'Pregnant and Alone!' Stuck in the 1950s ideal of how a woman should live her life. This brings out the fiery feminist in me.
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.
Zooey Deschanel
I don't think there are that many awesome roles out there, whether we're talking about movies or TV.
Zooey Deschanel
Everyone romanticizes somebody.
Zooey Deschanel
I love to cook. But I have some food allergies, so I have to contend with those.
Zooey Deschanel
Don't allow the coldness and fear of others to tarnish your perfectly vulnerable beating heart.
Zooey Deschanel
Yeah, well, we were looking for something sort of anonymous. It suggests what it is, but I like that it's modest. I feel like that's an underrated virtue. It's modest and it's kind of anonymous, which I liked, because it reminds me of my own ideas about why music should be played, which is not to be a star. That was never my intention.
Zooey Deschanel
I did go through this period where girls would be mean and I had a lot of guy friends. But I've found as an adult the importance of having female and male friends.
Zooey Deschanel
I think the best comedic actors don't play it for comedy, they play it for reality. Then you find it funny because it's real. Playing the genre is the worst thing you can do - it's embarrassing.
Zooey Deschanel
The first job I ever had was singing in a jazz club when I was like 15 with my friend, and we earned like 70 bucks. We were like, 'Oh my God!'
Zooey Deschanel
I appreciate a songwriter like Morrissey with so much restraint.
Zooey Deschanel
In making a movie, you're part of a big machine. Even in a small movie there are still so many people involved in the process, and it costs so much money to make.
Zooey Deschanel
I like having a schedule. I tend to be the type of person that thrives on something being regular.
