I will not get upset over men, but instead be poised and cool ice-queen.

There are so many images pushed at women and so many ideas of what you're supposed to be. I think there's too much of this superwoman, this woman with a bottom like two billiard balls. There's no real celebration of just being a person.

Nobody wants to be racist and I think that most people aren't.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that as soon as one part of your life starts looking up, another falls to pieces.

As Bridget writes to her son, in Bridget Jones' Baby - "if you just keep calm and keep your spirits up, things have a habit of turning out all right, just as they did for me."

You see, things being good has nothing to do with how you feel outside, it is all to do with how you are inside.

I'd been working on the [Bridget Jones's Baby: The Diaries material] for years, first, in the Independent newspaper columns and then in the various versions of the movie scripts.
