“I don't mind that if I ever star in movies, they'll likely be mine. That's okay, because my great role models - Woody Allen, even Tyler Perry, who is actually one of my role models, even if that seems kind of strange - they do that themselves. And it's great. They build empires, and they're known as having their own voice. I think it's 20 times more fun to act on a set where I feel the freedom to change the dialogue.” IfsThinkingFeelsMindKindSeemsFunStarsVoiceKnownRolesMinesStrangeModelsOkayDialogueEmpiresRole ModelsWoodyGreat Role Models Author:Mindy Kaling

“What if you could reach back to your four-year old or 14-year-old who's having a difficult time and reassure them, saying it is all going to be okay.

“A writer with her work needs to be like a dog with a bone all the time. She needs to know where she's hidden it. Where she's stored the good stuff. She needs to keep gnawing at it, even after all the meat seems to be gone. When a student of mine says (okay, whines) that she's impatient, or tired, or the worst: isn't it good enough? this may be harsh, but she loses just a little bit of my respect. Because there is no room for impatience, or exhaustion, or self-satisfaction, or laziness. All of these really mean, simply, that the inner censor has won the day.” KnowsNeedsMayMeanLittlesSelfEnoughSeemsStuffBitsLosesRoomsGoneWorstDogStudentsMinesLittle BitOkayTiredSatisfactionBonesMeatGood EnoughLazinessHarshImpatientImpatienceReally MeanExhaustionSelf-satisfaction Author:Dani Shapiro
