Growing up, I remember my parents feeling a little wary of 'The Simpsons.' This was the late eighties, and there was a wave of articles about TV shows that were bad for America. Then we all started watching it and loved it.

My mom always used to say, You can't say I love you before you can say I. And I think that sort of makes sense.
Mindy Kaling
Bribes and boy bands. That’s all you need to be a babysitter.
Mindy Kaling
I'm giving a lot of opinions, but I don't give any advice. I'm 31 and I'm not married and having kids. I'm five-foot-three. I weigh, like, 150 pounds and I'm not in this position to be telling people how to live.
Mindy Kaling
I love talking about clothes with women it's like a code because women dress for women.
Mindy Kaling
He was so popular you could barely look at him without being blinded by cool.
Mindy Kaling
Another old saying is that revenge is a dish best served cold. But it feels best served piping hot, straight out of the oven of outrage. My opinion? Take care of revenge right away.
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
I don't have very much time to surf the net, because it's as though my boss has a tracking device on me. The instant I'm looking at a Chloe sweater on Shopbop, I'll get a call in my office with a PA asking: Paul wants to know where you are and why you're not in the writers room, and if maybe you're online shopping.

Later, when you're grown up, you realize you never really get to hang out with your family. You pretty much have only eighteen years to spend with them full time, and that's it.
Mindy Kaling
Sometimes I aid into the confusion by having my character's name be my name.
Mindy Kaling
Skinny foodie, get away from me.
Mindy Kaling
I always wanted to write, even before I realized that there was a comedy writers' world, or what that life was like. I never thought of myself, at least as a little kid, in terms of being the onscreen talent. I always thought it'd be so much fun to write sketches and be a writer. Even as little as 6 or 7, that's what my main interest was.
Mindy Kaling
One friend with whom you have a lot in common is better than three with whom you struggle to find things to talk about.
Mindy Kaling
It'd be great to be so famous that if I murder someone, I will never, ever, ever serve any jail time, even if it's totally obvious to everyone that I did it.
Mindy Kaling
Twitter is so short, it's safe. I don't want my bosses to be like, 'Hey, your script is due and we saw you wrote four blog pages.'
Mindy Kaling
Hey, a disclaimer about me: I’m rude.
Mindy Kaling
It's really sweet when people tweet at me and say I'm their spirit animal or 'I wish she was my best friend,' which is the nicest compliment. For me, it's like, doing television is so personal because you're in people's homes, so the fact that people feel that way means so much to me.
Mindy Kaling
When you're East Coast person, you are so insufferable, and you have no idea. And I was. One, because I was miserable, and nobody liked to be around a miserable person, and two, everything that I thought was so profound, everyone had already dealt with.
Mindy Kaling
Because confidence is like respect you have to earn it.
Mindy Kaling
Twitter is the most amazing medium for a comedy writer. I can't get in every idea I want on the show no matter how hard I try to bully the other writers, so it's a way of me getting out other comic ideas and immediately getting feedback.
