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
All I know is that you can chop up all the onions and the whatevers you want and put it on top of caviar, but you still can't disguise the fact that you're eating fish eggs. Ugh!
Carrie Fisher
I like birds and dogs. I'm allergic to cats.

The only one who didn't know was George Lucas. We kept it from him, because we wanted to see what his face looked like when it changed expression--and he fooled us even then.

My father was a joyous, joyous spirit, he really was. He was a hedonist, that was just - he enjoyed life, thrust up to the elbows with it. He was a terrible father. I don't know that he was parented that well.
Carrie Fisher
I don't think 50-50 relationships exist. Men have an incredibly variety of options. It's much harder for a woman to do both things. I think traditional relationships work best.
Carrie Fisher
Here's what I've learned: that someone can change the course of history with a box cutter.
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
Anything you can do in excess for the wrong reasons is exciting to me.
Carrie Fisher
I had to shoot shotguns for The Blues Brothers. But I don't like that stuff. Too butch for me.
Carrie Fisher
I like that - the you-ish character.
Carrie Fisher
Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die.
Carrie Fisher
People see me and they squeal like tropical birds or seals stranded on the beach.
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
You're not famous until you're a Pez dispenser.
Carrie Fisher
I was born imagining myself with an apron on, with pies cooling on the window sill and babies crying upstairs. I thought that all that stuff would somehow anchor me to the planet, that it was the weight I needed to keep from just flying off into space.
