In terms of myself, my next big plan is to loose 7llb (as I've been planning to do since I was seventeen) Also to go to the gym three times a week, not merely to buy a sandwich. And also de-clutter the garage.

More quotes by Helen Fielding
I'd been working on the [Bridget Jones's Baby: The Diaries material] for years, first, in the Independent newspaper columns and then in the various versions of the movie scripts.
Helen Fielding
It is horrid to smirk.
Helen Fielding
I always market research my books before I hand them in by showing them to five or six close friends who I trust to be honest with me, so they are very heavily re-written already.
Helen Fielding
When Bridget [Jones] does finally get pregnant, she 's bound to mess it up, but what I tried to show is the importance of love and kindness rather than perfection, and the importance of support from friends who help you to laugh at your mistakes and pick yourself up afterwards.
Helen Fielding
In the end there is nothing more unattractive to men than radical feminism.
Helen Fielding
You see, things being good has nothing to do with how you feel outside, it is all to do with how you are inside.
Helen Fielding
Eventually, I manage to cheer Mum up by allowing her to go through my wardrobe and criticize all my clothes.
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
Valentine's Day purely commercial, cynical enterprise, anyway. Matter of supreme indifference to me.
Helen Fielding
I'd always hoped to write the story as a novel, but there was a long period when the [Bridget Jones's Baby: The Diaries] movie was stalled and in confusion. I felt frustrated creatively, and just couldn't work on the Baby material till the movie was sorted out.
Helen Fielding
I like you very much. Just as you are.
Helen Fielding
One must not live one's life through men but must be complete on oneself as a woman of substance.
Helen Fielding
..we were always taught, instead of waiting to be swept off our feet, to 'expect little, forgive much'.
Helen Fielding
When someone loves you it's like having a blanket all round your heart.
Helen Fielding
No one is thinking about you. They're thinking about themselves, just like you.
Helen Fielding
There are so many images pushed at women and so many ideas of what you're supposed to be. I think there's too much of this superwoman, this woman with a bottom like two billiard balls. There's no real celebration of just being a person.
Helen Fielding
9p.m. My flat. Feel very strange and empty. Is all very well thinking everything is going to be different when you come back but then it is all the same. Suppose I have to make it different. But what am I going to do with my life? I know. Will eat some cheese.
Helen Fielding
More than two years after Mad About the Boy was published, the [Bridget Jones's Baby: The Diaries ] movie started coming together. I felt better about the material, and found myself writing a letter from Bridget to her son: explaining the original story of how he came to be, from his own Mum.
Helen Fielding
But if you are single the last thing you want is your best friend forming a functional relationship with somebody else.
Helen Fielding
Reminded of favorite poem by Wendy Cope which goes: At Christmas little children sing and merry bells jingle. The cold winter air makes our hands and faces tingle. And happy families go to church and cheerily they mingle, And the whole business is unbelievably dreadful if you're single.
Helen Fielding
