More quotes by Molly Ringwald
I never felt terribly comfortable in the public eye.
Molly Ringwald
I'm so associated with being young and being with a teenager.
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
I just needed to leave Hollywood.

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
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.
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
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
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
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
Originally I considered myself a singer.
Molly Ringwald
I never really felt like I belonged in California.
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
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
When I was a little kid I thought I would grow up to be black and sing jazz in nightclubs.
