The older you get, the easier it is to spot the phonies. And I just think, how unpleasant for them.
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.
Carrie Fisher
I rarely think about my childhood. It's a slippery thing I can't keep hold of for long - it slithers out of my grasp. And a lot of the time I remember what was missing instead of what was there. I am a chronicler of absence.

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.

I always think of Meryl [Streep] for everything now. There really aren't many actresses around who are truly lucid the way she is.
Carrie Fisher
My mother is an immensely powerful woman.
Carrie Fisher
I envy people who have the capacity to sit with another human being and find them endlessly interesting, I would rather watch TV. Of course this becomes eventually known to the other person.
Carrie Fisher
It's very good to get through them (drugs) while you're still young and then talk about how great or bad it was for the rest of your life.
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
If talking were aerobic, I'd be the thinnest person in the world.
Carrie Fisher
I don't think Christmas is necessarily about things. It's about being good to one another, it's about the Christian ethic, it's about kindness.
Carrie Fisher
I went to drama college in England - the Central School of Speech and Drama, in London. I was there for not quite two years, then I got Star Wars.
Carrie Fisher
I'll never be known for my work with boundaries.
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.
