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
Sometimes you can only find Heaven by slowly backing away from Hell.
Carrie Fisher
I grew up knowing that I had the prettiest mother of anyone in my class.
Carrie Fisher
From here on out, there's just reality. I think that's what maturity is: a stoic response to endless reality. But then, what do I know?
Carrie Fisher
In my opinion, a problem derails your life and an inconvenience is not being able to get a nice seat on the un-derailed train.
Carrie Fisher
Of course I miss [drugs]. And anyone who tells you they don't is lying.
Carrie Fisher
A lot of people have told me, you know, that what I've written about, they identify with strongly.
