Shoulda gone to China. They give away babies like free iPods. They put them in guns and shoot them out at sporting events.

More quotes by Diablo Cody
You definitely meet a lot of extremely powerful, successful, wealthy people in Hollywood who are extremely miserable.
Diablo Cody
When I do encounter young women or aspiring filmmakers who tell me that I've inspired them or that my work means something to them, that's amazing. That's really exciting!
Diablo Cody
He wasn’t a carrier of commitment-phobia or other notable boy diseases and he used expensive moisturizer. That’s about all it takes to bang my gong.
Diablo Cody
I try to avoid Twitter. I occasionally can't resist the siren call of email.
Diablo Cody
The fact is, when I wrote 'Juno' - and I think this is part of its charm and appeal - I didn't know how to write a movie. And I also had no idea it was going to get made!
Diablo Cody
Los Angeles is often described as the nadir of vapidity, a smog-choked space cradle.
Diablo Cody
He is the cheese to my macaroni.
Diablo Cody
I've been told that I'm incompetent, socially retarded, maladjusted. I still know that I couldn't function in reality. Los Angeles is a good place for me.
Diablo Cody
Judy Blume excels at describing how it feels to be invisible. So how poetic is it that Blume herself is suddenly everywhere?
Diablo Cody
These days, the Rolling Stones still have an edge, but that fangs-out ferocity has mellowed considerably.
Diablo Cody
Now '90210' is returning with an all-new cast of slightly more plausible teens. I'll be honest: I wish the old cast was back. Ideally, this spin-off would be an Ice Storm-esque exploration of the West Beverly gang's bleak adult lives.
Diablo Cody
I do not quote my own movies. I think I would be pretty insufferable if I did.
Diablo Cody
Even though I am in this weird position of being a semi-recognizable screenwriter, which isn't that common, at the same time, I'm not an actress. I'm pretty isolated.
Diablo Cody
I didn't even know how to talk to people, I didn't know how to talk to the press. I was just a jester. And I still feel that way. But, I mean, what haven't I learned? Everything that I know is new information because I was starting with nothing.
Diablo Cody
The attitude toward women in this industry is nauseating. There are all sorts of porcine executives who are uncomfortable with a woman doing anything subversive. They want the movie about the beautiful girl who trips and falls, the adorable klutz.
Diablo Cody
I wrote a screenplay for a 'Sweet Valley High' adaptation, and it's really amazing to me how many women who are my age have responded to the idea and are excited about the movie.
Diablo Cody
I normally ignore the History Channel.
Diablo Cody
When you're in a competitive environment, always give out the impression that you don't care. It makes people want you more. If you act desperate, it's over. I think a passive attitude is helpful. It comes naturally because I'm lazy.
Diablo Cody
I know white clothing is supposed to enhance that summer glow, but writers don't tan.
Diablo Cody
There's this double standard that exists and it really frustrates me. If a woman chooses to work, people say, Oh it's so sad that you're not at home with your children. But no one ever says that to a man because it's assumed that the man is going to be the provider.
