Molly Ringwald
I wish I had been more prepared, both for success and for failure, when I was younger.
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'm really intimidated by beautiful people. Beautiful guys, especially.
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
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
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
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.
