More quotes by Carrie Fisher
I have a girlfriend who talks like that all the time. Who constantly complain about their periods and plumbing and stuff.
Carrie Fisher
Until adolescence I thought I had the best mother in the world. Such a graceful mother. I had this fantasy that I was the wrong daughter.
Carrie Fisher
I like the community of acting better than the prison of writing. I like sets.
Carrie Fisher
Mothers are great. They outlast everything. But when they're bad, they're the worst thing that can happen.
Carrie Fisher
I'm fine, but I'm bipolar. I'm on seven medications, and I take medication three times a day. This constantly puts me in touch with the illness I have. I'm never quite allowed to be free of that for a day. It's like being a diabetic.
Carrie Fisher
My favorite films are ones that have my lines in it, and I like those lines. And I like to hear them.

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
So when I was 24, someone suggested to me that I was bipolar, and I thought that was ridiculous. I just thought he was trying to get out of treating me. But he was also responding to the chaotic nature of my life.
Carrie Fisher
Finding the cutest guy in A.A. is like finding the cutest loony in the bin.
Carrie Fisher
As we all know, there is no underwear in space.
Carrie Fisher
Here's how men think. Sex, work - and those are reversible, depending on age - sex, work, food, sports and lastly, begrudgingly, relationships. And here's how women think. Relationships, relationships, relationships, work, sex, shopping, weight, food.
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
My mother is an extraordinary woman, extraordinary.
Carrie Fisher
My extroversion is a way of managing my introversion.
Carrie Fisher
You can't find any true closeness in Hollywood, because everybody does the fake closeness so well.
Carrie Fisher
Running for office is the least aerobic of the socially interactive sports.
Carrie Fisher
I was telling some people in my dressing room some of my other stories, my psychotic break, and blah, blah, blah, and no, they kind of look at you and it's just not what they wanted to hear.
