- Love

- Nov 07, 2020
I love that 'Much Ado About Nothing,' passionate, smart fighting. I love fighting with guys, and that's something that I don't get to see: arguing at a high level with a member of the opposite sex. That didn't really happen that much on 'The Office.' I just like that 'Moonlighting,' Benedick-Beatrice type of thing.

I feel like the high-concept shows that have some kind of gimmick tend not to be the hit classic shows of all time.

Personally, I, Mindy Kaling want to spend like 80 percent of my life hanging out with women.
- I Am
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I am a super-confident writer, and as a joke writer and as an actress, I'm like, 'I want to go head-to-head with every person.' I am an Indian woman and I'm a kind of double minority in this world.
- Mom
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My relationship with my mom is really the single most profound relationship that I've ever had in my life.

If I could make a device where people could just intuit everything you are thinking - a little cable you plug into, like, a USB port, I would make a billion dollars.
- Doctor
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I feel like if I had my personality but was an OB/GYN, you would be psyched. You'd be like, 'My chatty, pop-culture-interested but plainspoken, wants-to-talk-about-clothes but serious-minded doctor.' I feel like I would clean up with patients. That's kind of a cocky thing to say.
- People

- Nov 07, 2020
People talk about mumblecore but I prefer bumblecore, hyper-realistic bee movies about how bees really are.
- Ale
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I never want to be called the funniest Indian female comedian that exists. I feel like I can go head-to-head with the best white, male comedy writers that are out there. Why would I want to self-categorize myself into a smaller group than I'm able to compete in?
- Famous Person
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I have a great job writing for 'The Office,' but, really, all television writers do is dream of one day writing movies. I'll put it this way: At the Oscars the most famous person in the room is, like, Angelina Jolie. At the Emmys the huge exciting celebrity is Bethenny Frankel. You get what I mean.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I am always surprised at what movie studios think people will want to see. I'm even more surprised at how often they are correct.
- Fueled
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I had these kind of unrealistic expectations that were fueled by romantic comedies, and it has both helped me and hurt me in many ways. It helped me because, in general, they've made me hopeful. I just figure things will eventually work out for me. But nobody is like any Tom Hanks character. Nobody is Hugh Grant. No one is Meg Ryan!
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I have such a rich fantasy life, I can't help it. I do make up a lot of romantic stories in my head.
- Comedy
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I went to Dartmouth College so simply by being an Indian-American woman, I was already so statistically interesting. And then the fact that I didn't want to do anything science-related, and I wanted to write comedy plays and act little bit - I mean, I became deeply interesting in college because of how rare that was.
- American Woman
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I fall into that nebulous, quote-unquote, normal American woman size that legions of fashion stylists detest. For the record, I'm a size 8 - this week, anyway. Many stylists hate that size because I think to them, it shows that I lack the discipline to be an ascetic; or the confident, sassy abandon to be a total fatty hedonist.
- Place
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I have a thick skin, which comes from being a not-really-skinny, dark-skinned Indian woman. I haven't fit in every place, and so I'm kind of used to resistance.
- New
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Right now, I'm hankering for new adventures... Ninety percent of the time I'm having romantic-comedy fantasies in which I'm wearing little pencil skirts and hurrying down to the subway.
- Love
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Woody Allen is really the ultimate. I love that he believed in himself enough to do what he did. And I have that same feeling - that there's nobody that looks like me in movies, nobody would cast me as a romantic lead, but I want to do it and I feel confident that I can.
- Funny
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
People don't want to listen to a celebrity tweeting about their charities and shows. That's why comedy writers do well - we put out little funny ideas.
- Food
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Fast food is hugely important in the life of a comedy writer. All we do is order in, and what we're going to eat is hotly debated.
- Face Value
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
People take things at face value on social media. Earnestness is the assumption.
- Gauge
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Sometimes I eavesdrop on people. I could rationalize it - oh, this is good anthropological research for characters I'm writing - but it's basically just nosiness. It also helps me gauge where I'm at: Am I normal?
- don't Care
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I want a schedule-keeping, waking-up-early, wallet-carrying, picture-hanging man. I don't care if he takes prescription drugs for cholesterol or hair loss.
- Bedroom
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm not married, I frequently use my debit card to buy things that cost less than three dollars, and my bedroom is so untidy it looks like vandals ransacked the Anthropologie sale section. I'm kind of a mess.
- Diary
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I really love 'Bridget Jones's Diary' - and I love the book, too. You wonder how it ever got made into a movie. She's supposed to be chubby, and two of the hottest guys ever are straight-up fighting over her?
- Egos
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Comedy writers have the most fragile egos.
- Birthday
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Anybody can have a birthday. It requires nothing. Murderers have birthdays. It's the opposite of anything that I believe in. And I don't like at work where you stop everything to sing 'Happy Birthday' to someone. I feel like that's for children.
- Hide
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I just have my characters say my controversial opinions and then hide behind them.
- Children
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I always knew I wanted kids, but when my mom passed away I was like, 'I want a bunch of kids. I want three kids or four kids, and I want to have that relationship again.' I can't bring my mom back, but I can have children.
- Love
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I would love to be married. But it's not a necessity like the way that I feel I need and want to have children. It would be wonderful to have a husband, and I would feel blessed to do it. But I would feel sad for the rest of my life if I had no kids.
- Speak
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
As a kid it's adorable to have a gap in your teeth. But then, because of the shifting in my mouth, I started whistling through it, and as a 32-year-old woman, whistling while you speak in sort of annoying.
