More quotes by 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 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
When I was turning 40, I felt that there were no books out there that hit the spot in terms of what I wanted to read.
Molly Ringwald
Getting the pretty back is about getting back in touch with your essential self: the part of you that knows what you really want.
Molly Ringwald
I never really felt like I belonged in California.
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
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
We are the most brutal with the people we love the most.
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 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
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'm so associated with being young and being with a teenager.
Molly Ringwald
Sometimes when people have kids young, they're not ready.
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.
Molly Ringwald
Jazz is my comfort music, like comfort food.
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 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
The wonderful thing about books is you never run out of them, you can just keep going. So I'm always finding new writers, or old writers that I just happen not to have read.
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
I never felt terribly comfortable in the public eye.
