More quotes by Sarah Jessica Parker
I love walking into a closet and smelling lingering perfume, so I always spray my clothes. And at the end of the bottle, when the atomizer no longer reaches the tiny little dribble that is left, I unscrew the top and pour the remainder onto a t-shirt or dress.
Sarah Jessica Parker
It's a tricky time because people are going after the wrong people, too. There's a misplaced rage and aggression, that as a person in a public position you almost feel like you have to be perfect now when you express yourself. It feels almost unfortunate.
Sarah Jessica Parker
I don't put pictures of my children on, rarely, I think I've done it twice? I'm thoughtful about that, because I don't think you can get it back, and I don't think it's fair to people to try to convey a desire to maintain some privacy and then share pictures and expect that somebody else won't want the same ability.
Sarah Jessica Parker
The great challenge for me is to be all things to all people I want to be a great mother, and I want to feel good when I'm at work.

I don't know what I can do about the aging. Yes, I am aging. Oh my God, I'm aging all the time. It's like those flowers that wilt in front of you in time-lapse films. But what can I possibly do? Look like a lunatic?
Sarah Jessica Parker
Balls are to men what purses are to women.
Sarah Jessica Parker
I never was Carrie Bradshaw, but imagine how great it was to be told, You are obligated to kiss all these men, to dress like that, and to carry on like that! They were great guys, too.
Sarah Jessica Parker
There are occasions that I love to be fashionable and enjoy, you know? But the work day of a mother doesn't include a hair making team or any consideration of your shoe.
Sarah Jessica Parker
I have a lot of responsibilities outside myself. I have a large family. I want to know I can always be helpful.
Sarah Jessica Parker
When I go to a premiere I like to borrow lovely clothes and shoes from designers. It's like the library: if you return them in good condition, you get to borrow more. I'm very lucky.
Sarah Jessica Parker
Follow your instincts and do not let other people's opinion of you become your opinion of yourself.
Sarah Jessica Parker
I write about sex, not love. What do I know about love?
Sarah Jessica Parker
And if you are a parent, introduce your children to their neighborhood library. It will give them a real sense of independence to have their own library card and enjoy borrowing books.
Sarah Jessica Parker
I love the opportunity to wear something really special and go to a wonderful event at some great cultural institution.
Sarah Jessica Parker
I developed a really strong work ethic, and I don't take anything for granted.
Sarah Jessica Parker
I don't believe in email. I'm an old-fashioned girl. I prefer calling and hanging up.
Sarah Jessica Parker
I still like getting dressed up and having the opportunity to borrow beautiful dresses, but as a mother - and as somebody who's schedule isn't always my own - I don't shop a lot, or think about clothes a lot.
Sarah Jessica Parker
When a relationship dies do we ever really give up the ghost or are we forever haunted by the spirits of relationships past?
Sarah Jessica Parker
I thought if I had straight hair and a perfect nose, my whole career would be different.
