More quotes by 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.
Molly Ringwald
I used to sing with my father's jazz band and then when I was ten years old a musician friend of his suggested that I try out for the first west coast production of Annie.
Molly Ringwald
I never really felt like I belonged in California.
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
Did you work for the money to buy those earrings? Or did your Daddy buy those for you?
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
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
Originally I considered myself a singer.
Molly Ringwald
I wish I had been more prepared, both for success and for failure, when I was younger.
Molly Ringwald
Sometimes when people have kids young, they're not ready.
Molly Ringwald

Molly Ringwald
I'm really intimidated by beautiful people. Beautiful guys, especially.
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 like to say, jazz music is kind of like my musical equivalent of comfort food. You know, it's always where I go back to when I just want to feel sort of grounded.
Molly Ringwald
I write in bed, too. I find it very comforting. I want to sort of, like, crawl in a fetal position if I have to.
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
When you say you're 40, you can't call yourself an ingenue any more.
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
I can't' really sing a song unless I really connect with the lyrics.
Molly Ringwald
I think once you're a mother, you kind of always see your kids as a baby anyway no matter how old they get.
