Helen Fielding
Valentine's Day purely commercial, cynical enterprise, anyway. Matter of supreme indifference to me.
Helen Fielding

Helen Fielding
Bridget Jones' Baby, at heart is about the gap between how you expect life to turn out and how it actually does.
Helen Fielding
Oh God. valentine's Day tomorrow. Why? Why? Why is (the) entire world geared to make people not involved in romance feel stupid when everyone knows romance does not work anyway. Look at (the) royal family. Look at Mum and Dad.
Helen Fielding

Helen Fielding
