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.

I wish I had been more prepared, both for success and for failure, when I was younger.

Image
When I was a little kid I thought I would grow up to be black and sing jazz in nightclubs.
Molly Ringwald
Image
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.

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.

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.

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.

All of the advice that I give, I'm not an expert by any means, but it's just my opinion. So if somebody likes me or likes y style or my career, I think they should have that feeling.

Whenever people ask me how I manage to get through this whole crazy time of being incredibly famous and sort of an icon and supposedly a role model and all of this insanity, I always cite my family and then books. I don't know what I would have done without books.

I've done kissing scenes with people who have been loaded. I'd think, 'Do you actually have to drink that Jack Daniels to kiss me?'
Molly Ringwald
Image
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.

I never really felt like I belonged in California.

We are the most brutal with the people we love the most.

Image
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
Image
I think once you're a mother, you kind of always see your kids as a baby anyway no matter how old they get.

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.

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.

Sometimes when people have kids young, they're not ready.

I don't have control over how people choose to perceive me. The only thing I have control over is my writing.
