More quotes by Mindy Kaling
I'm a smart enough person to know that I don't want everyone to be cookie-cutter versions of the nine guys who wear Converse sneakers.
Mindy Kaling
He was so popular you could barely look at him without being blinded by cool.
Mindy Kaling
I regard romantic comedies as a subgenre of sci-fi, in which the world operates according to different rules than my regular human world.
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'm an actor and a writer and a showrunner and I edit my show. ... I have a job that three people usually have, and I have it in one person. And the idea that the critic thought that I had this excess of time for which I could go to, like, panels or write essays was just so laughable to me.
Mindy Kaling
I have such a rich fantasy life, I can't help it. I do make up a lot of romantic stories in my head.
Mindy Kaling
I never want to be called the funniest Indian female comedian that exists. I feel like I can go head-to-head with the best white, male comedy writers that are out there. Why would I want to self-categorize myself into a smaller group than I’m able to compete in?
Mindy Kaling
I think a lot of writers, male and female, write as if their parents were killed in a car accident when they were 2, and they have no one to hold accountable. And unfortunately, I don't have that. I have parents who I care about what they think.
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
There are many teenage vampire books you could have purchased instead. I'm grateful you made this choice.
Mindy Kaling
My dream of course, as a writer and a person who's an entertainer, is: Grow up to be Mindy Kaling, don't grow up to be Mindy Lahiri.
Mindy Kaling
If I can muster up any allure in my life, at this stage, I wouldn't mind doing that.
Mindy Kaling
As my mom has said, when one person is unhappy, it usually means two people are unhappy but that one has not come to terms with it yet.
Mindy Kaling
I love telling press the designers I'm wearing, especially if they are emerging. That's exciting to me, supporting talented newcomers.
Mindy Kaling
Gratitude is the closest thing to beauty manifested in an emotion
Mindy Kaling
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.
Mindy Kaling
I'm Indian-American and I think that when I think of myself as being culturally Indian, it had so much to do with when I lived with my parents and was a kid because they would take me to the Diwali festivals. They would take me to the temple, and they would teach me about all the different holidays.
Mindy Kaling
I stupidly memorize my credit card and use it about thrice weekly for online shopping. The only reason I don't bankrupt myself is that I return about 75% of what I buy.
Mindy Kaling
I have never regretted erring on the side of withholding information.
Mindy Kaling
Hey, a disclaimer about me: I’m rude.
