Carrie Fisher
Mothers are great. They outlast everything. But when they're bad, they're the worst thing that can happen.
Carrie Fisher

Eventually, life of the party is just like any other job. I've thought of myself that way at times, but it's sort of like holding everybody hostage. It diminishes everyone else. And ultimately, your friends don't require it of you.
Carrie Fisher
I've never been that uncomfortable talking about it. Things come out [in the media] about me. When it's out, it's someone else's version of what's the matter with me. I want it to be my version of what it is. My recourse is to do my version.
Carrie Fisher
Sex was for men. Marriage, like lifeboats, was for women and children.
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
The older you get, the easier it is to spot the phonies. And I just think, how unpleasant for them.
Carrie Fisher
