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.

More quotes by Zooey Deschanel
I feel like making music because - and this has much to do with the way I was able to make this record - there's more of myself in it.
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 sort of consider myself a comedic actress, not a comedienne. I think it's different. You know, I'm not a stand-up or anything, but playing into comedic situations is sort of where, I think, my strength lies.
Zooey Deschanel
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
You do not need to look or be anorexic to be successful in Hollywood. The range of what's acceptable is a lot larger than what people believe.
Zooey Deschanel
I have trouble actually describing myself because I'm always suspicious of people who start describing themselves. I'm like, OK, why are you trying to tell me what you are?
Zooey Deschanel
Everyone has the heartbreak that shapes them in a way that they could never go back to the innocence that they had before.
Zooey Deschanel
There are so many cute vintage dresses made out of synthetics from the '60s and '70s - but they're so itchy and hot. It's not worth it!
Zooey Deschanel
Being an actress can be a little like being a girl in the '50s: You're stuck waiting by the phone, hoping that the boy you like will call.
Zooey Deschanel
One thing I love about Christmas music is that it has a tradition of warmth.
Zooey Deschanel
I wanted to be a child actor so bad that every day I'd beg my parents if I could audition, but my mom said, 'Not until you can drive yourself to auditions.'
Zooey Deschanel
Classic Christmas cookies are really time-consuming. Instead, make a bar you can bake in a pan and just cut up, like a brownie or a blondie or a shortbread, which still has that Christmas vibe.
Zooey Deschanel
My sister was always very motherly, babysitting and stuff.
Zooey Deschanel
It's never too late for a coffee. After all it's morning somewhere in the world.
Zooey Deschanel
I'm a person who gets better with practice. Getting older is awesome - because you get more practice.
Zooey Deschanel
If I'm going to be 'too' anything, 'too cute' is fine. I love puppies. So what? Who hates puppies?
Zooey Deschanel
Writing music is really personal, and it's a really exciting thing to participate in because represents the full creative process: It feels like something is coming from nothing.
Zooey Deschanel
I like a lot of old films, I like a lot old music, and a lot of it has to do with the fact that I like the idea of knowing what happens before, so that I can understand it.
Zooey Deschanel
I'm not going to say I'm a big girl. I'm a very small person, but I'm a healthy weight. That might be a little weird for Hollywood.
Zooey Deschanel
I have a music career as well, so I was going to either be an actress or a musician. Then, I did both. But, I was always going to do something creative.
