More quotes by Molly Ringwald
Originally I considered myself a singer.
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
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 can't' really sing a song unless I really connect with the lyrics.
Molly Ringwald
When you say you're 40, you can't call yourself an ingenue any more.
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
I never really felt like I belonged in California.
Molly Ringwald
To preach abstinence, I think, is absolutely not the right message to give to kids.
Molly Ringwald
When I was a little kid I thought I would grow up to be black and sing jazz in nightclubs.
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
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 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 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
I'm really intimidated by beautiful people. Beautiful guys, especially.
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
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
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
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 just needed to leave Hollywood.
Molly Ringwald
I wish I had been more prepared, both for success and for failure, when I was younger.
