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.

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 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
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
Sometimes when people have kids young, they're not ready.
Molly Ringwald
I never felt terribly comfortable in the public eye.
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
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 wish I had been more prepared, both for success and for failure, when I was younger.
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'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
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
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
We are the most brutal with the people we love the most.
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
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
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
When I was a little kid I thought I would grow up to be black and sing jazz in nightclubs.
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
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.
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.
