I was obsessed with being popular when I was in high school and never achieved it. There's photos from our high school musicals and things, and I'm comically in the deep background, wearing a beggar's costume.

I don't want to be skinny. I'm constantly in a state of self-improvement but I don't beat myself up over it.
Mindy Kaling
There are little Indian girls out there who look up to me, and I never want to belittle the honor of being an inspiration to them. But while I’m talking about why I’m so different, white male show runners get to talk about their art.
Mindy Kaling
You always want to keep your look clean and elegant, but you don't have to do the safe black-dress route. Have some fun! Wear something colorful with a hint of sparkle.
Mindy Kaling
In real life, shouldn't a wedding be an awesome party you throw with your great pal, in the presence of a bunch of your other friends? A great day, for sure, but not the beginning and certainly not the end of your friendship with a person you can't wait to talk about gardening with the for the next forty years.
Mindy Kaling
Every day, I wake up and I'm like, Oh, I'm the star of my own show that has my name in it and I get to write it and hire actors that I've loved for such a long time! It's amazing!
Mindy Kaling
Skinny foodie, get away from me.
Mindy Kaling
I say if you love something, set it in a small cage and pester and smother it with love until it either loves you back or dies.
Mindy Kaling
I’m the one who looks at the infant, smiles nervously, and as my contribution to small talk, robotically announces to the parent, “Your child looks healthy and well cared for.
Mindy Kaling
My relationship with my mom is really the single most profound relationship that I've ever had in my life.
Mindy Kaling
If you're a kid who was not especially a star in your high school, I recommend going to a college in the middle of nowhere. I got all the attention I could ever have wanted.
Mindy Kaling
I work so hard and so many hours, and I've done that for years and years and years.
Mindy Kaling
I fall into that nebulous, quote-unquote, normal American woman size that legions of fashion stylists detest. For the record, I'm a size 8 - this week, anyway. Many stylists hate that size because I think to them, it shows that I lack the discipline to be an ascetic or the confident, sassy abandon to be a total fatty hedonist.
Mindy Kaling
In my mind, the sexiest thing in the world is the feeling that you’re wanted.
Mindy Kaling
I have a personality defect where I refuse to see myself as an underdog.
Mindy Kaling
This book will take you two days to read. Did you even see the cover? It’s mostly pink. If you’re reading this book every night for months, something is not right.
Mindy Kaling
Sometimes you just have to put on lip gloss and pretend to be psyched.
Mindy Kaling
I used to forget that I was an Indian woman. I would even forget that I was a woman. I don't think of myself as bringing to the table a lot of 'women's issues.' I don't feel the need to write about maternity. I grew up thinking that the talented people in comedy were hard-joke writers.
Mindy Kaling
I just want ambitious teenagers to know it is totally fine to be quite, observant kids. Besides being a delight to your parents, you will find you have plenty of time later to catch up.
Mindy Kaling
I, like most women, I dress for other women, I think. If I was going to dress for men, I think in general I would be just wearing, like, a fitted black T-shirt and tight jeans every day.
Mindy Kaling
Fast food is hugely important in the life of a comedy writer. All we do is order in, and what we're going to eat is hotly debated.
