When I got a little bit older I wanted to play piano - that's all I wanted to do. I remember learning how to play a blues progression on the xylophone in music class and thinking This is the greatest thing I've ever learned.

More quotes by Zooey Deschanel
I try to be authentic - but at the same time I don't really want people prying into my personal life.
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
I'm a person who has a lot of energy. So, yes, I don't really stop to rest or de-stress. I just keep going. I figure that if you don't stop, then you'll never notice how tired you are.
Zooey Deschanel
Everyone needs a theme song! It should make you feel like a million dollars.

Zooey Deschanel
Women I admired growing up - Debra Winger, Diane Keaton, Meryl Streep - were all beautiful and thin, but not too thin. There are a lot of actresses who are unhealthy-skinny - much, much too skinny. You can't Pilates to that.
Zooey Deschanel
I still have in me the same awareness when I was 12 and chubby and a girl was spitting in my face. I'm the same person.
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
Nothing could be as hard as middle school.
Zooey Deschanel
I want to be a freaking feminist and wear a freaking Peter Pan collar. So freaking what?
Zooey Deschanel
Especially in comedies, I think a lot of time the female characters are there to provide a balance for guys.
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.
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 really like the collaboration of doing movies and television. But I like the sort of solitary work of doing music.
Zooey Deschanel
It's an addiction. I love clothes. I like to go down Melrose and look in all the windows and I go to different flea markets. I have lots of costumes. You never know when you're going to have to dress up like a milkmaid from the 1600s.
