More quotes by Molly Ringwald
It's the universal feeling that we all are alone - that we're all different. I think the movie's one resounding theme is that everybody feels the same, and we're all alone together. Some people come up to me on the street and thank me for helping them get through their teen years.
Molly Ringwald
Usually the kids are portrayed as very one-dimensional. Like these mindless animals that just have three things on their minds: getting laid, getting drunk, and driving real fast over Mulholland Drive.
Molly Ringwald
Yes, my kids come first, but as a parent I need to come to them with a fresh mind. I can't be too exhausted or too tired. And I am a better parent when I have more energy.
Molly Ringwald
We are the most brutal with the people we love the most.
Molly Ringwald
I felt all the things that other teenagers felt. I was insecure in lots of ways, over-confident in others. I was very emotional. Excitable.
Molly Ringwald
I think people assume that women write about the domestic sphere. Women write about relationships and family. Men do, too, but then it's the Great American Novel.
Molly Ringwald
Jazz is my comfort music, like comfort food.
Molly Ringwald
I think we do live in a very specialized society, where once you think about somebody as one thing, it's hard to change that. But I do a lot of things. I act, I write, I sing.
Molly Ringwald
I didn't have parents who were, you know, racing to get a reality television show, you know? Or looking to benefit in some way from their daughter's fame.
Molly Ringwald
I don't have control over how people choose to perceive me. The only thing I have control over is my writing.
Molly Ringwald
When I was a little kid I thought I would grow up to be black and sing jazz in nightclubs.
Molly Ringwald
Did you work for the money to buy those earrings? Or did your Daddy buy those for you?
Molly Ringwald
Not all women write the same. But I don't understand why the model is that you're supposed to write like a man, and that means you're a real writer.
Molly Ringwald
To preach abstinence, I think, is absolutely not the right message to give to kids.
Molly Ringwald
I'm really intimidated by beautiful people. Beautiful guys, especially.
Molly Ringwald
I wish I had been more prepared, both for success and for failure, when I was younger.
Molly Ringwald
I think once you sort of cross over and you realize what books can be - and if they mean something to you - there's just no stopping you.
Molly Ringwald
Automatically everybody thinks of me as an actress who is trying to sing. And if I weren't me I'd probably think the same thing.
Molly Ringwald
I've always been the go-to girl for all of my girlfriends in terms of relationship advice or clothing advice.
Molly Ringwald
I don't really believe in regret. I think you can always learn from the past, but I wouldn't want a different life.
