I work so hard and so many hours, and I've done that for years and years and years.

My whole childhood was like: Work hard, be quiet, respect elderly people, respect your parents, and just be unobtrusive.

Why wear white? It's like, forget about dropping something on it. I don't understand how anybody wears white.

People, you know, had trouble with the character. Mindy is not immediately likeable. She does and says a lot of things that you don't see in, forget female characters, any characters. Like, she says things like, "I'm going to hell because I don't really care about the environment and I love to gossip."

I just have my characters say my controversial opinions and then hide behind them.

Because confidence is like respect; you have to earn it.
