The older you get, the easier it is to spot the phonies. And I just think, how unpleasant for them.
Carrie Fisher
It creates community when you talk about private things and you can find other people that have the same things.
Carrie Fisher
It creates community when you talk about private things and you can find other people that have the same things. Otherwise, I don't know, I felt very lonely with some of the issues that I had or history that I had. And when I shared about it, I found that others had it, too.
Carrie Fisher
You can't find any true closeness in Hollywood, because everybody does the fake closeness so well.
Carrie Fisher
Don't you see? We've become smart enough to justify stupid behavior. Like, 'I'm angry at him and I didn't express it, so I turned my anger inward and now it's depression, so in order to feel good again, what I should do is call him and express my anger.' It's like, if we can make it sound smart enough, we're allowed to do stupid things.

Carrie Fisher
Now it's dedicated to my grandparents and to both of my parents. The first book was dedicated to my mother so I thought maybe it was my father's turn, but then I realized that everyone would jump on that and assume I'd had some falling out with my mother, which is absolutely not the case.
Carrie Fisher
All my life I've been seeing things through the culture. My father, for instance, was the press's bad boy. People really hated him. He was always a big flirt. He was always in trouble - going bankrupt, whatever.
Carrie Fisher
I used to want to gamble, too, until I was 20 and could actually go to a casino. Then I wasn't so crazy about the attitude.
Carrie Fisher
If talking were aerobic, I'd be the thinnest person in the world.
Carrie Fisher
I really love the internet. They say chat-rooms are the trailer park of the internet but I find it amazing.
Carrie Fisher
And when you're young you want to fit in. Hell, I still want to fit in with certain humans, but as you get older you get a little more discriminating.
Carrie Fisher
My life is like a lone, forgotten Q-Tip in the second-to-last drawer.
Carrie Fisher
Actors may know how to act, but a lot of them don't know how to behave.
Carrie Fisher
I feel so agitated all the time, like a hamster in search of a wheel.
Carrie Fisher
I like the community of acting better than the prison of writing. I like sets.
