Singletons should not have to explain themselves all the time but should have an accepted status — like geisha girls do

Dieting on New Year's Day isn't a good idea as you can't eat rationally but really need to be free to consume whatever is necessary, moment by moment, in order to ease your hangover. I think it would be much more sensible if resolutions began generally on January the second.

I'd always hoped to write the story as a novel, but there was a long period when the [Bridget Jones's Baby: The Diaries] movie was stalled and in confusion. I felt frustrated creatively, and just couldn't work on the Baby material till the movie was sorted out.

No one is thinking about you. They're thinking about themselves, just like you.

I certainly think I'll end up writing about America in some form. I've taken plenty of notes. I like America very much.

It is horrid to smirk.

With so many dark things to worry about in the world right now, I hope people will just go with the fun and enjoy [ Bridget Jones's Baby: The Diaries].
