Sometimes I eavesdrop on people. I could rationalize it - oh, this is good anthropological research for characters I'm writing - but it's basically just nosiness. It also helps me gauge where I'm at: Am I normal?
Mindy Kaling
I find it very sad that so many girls who look up to me are young women of color who have been told that they are ugly, and who feel that they are not normal...I think it's so important that women look like me find that they can be beautiful or objects of love, attention and affection.
Mindy Kaling

It used to be that you had to make female TV characters perfect so no one would be offended by your 'portrayal' of women. Even when I started out on 'The Office' eight years ago, we could write our male characters funny and flawed, but not the women. And now, thankfully, it's completely different.
Mindy Kaling
I'm an A student. I'm addicted to feedback, and I want to please people. That's sort of how I've gotten to where I am.
Mindy Kaling
Hey, a disclaimer about me: I’m rude.
Mindy Kaling
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
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
Everyone has a moment when they discover they love Amy Poehler.
Mindy Kaling
If I can muster up any allure in my life, at this stage, I wouldn't mind doing that.
Mindy Kaling
Because confidence is like respect you have to earn it.
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
I guess when you go to business school you never turn business off.
Mindy Kaling
I kind of killed it in college. You know that saying big fish in a small pond? At Dartmouth college, I was freakin' Jaws in a community swimming pool
Mindy Kaling
I was kind of unfriendly and suspicious of everyone around me. I didn't talk until I was about 15. It's a kind of famous story at my house.
