A Quote by Carrie Fisher

Females get hired along procreative lines. After 40, we're kind of cooked. — © Carrie Fisher
Females get hired along procreative lines. After 40, we're kind of cooked.
Thus mating of females was strictly along the lines of paternal song.
Boyhood proves that there's still good roles for women over 40, as long as you get hired when you're under 40.
After I beat Rose and won the belt, I heard too many comments along the lines of 'Oh, that was luck.' You think that doesn't get to you?
The more shows that are produced, the more writers are hired, producers are hired, actors are hired, directors are hired, it means the more people will get employed. It's better for the economy. It's a fantastic thing.
Every man comes into the world with a predisposition to grow along certain lines, and growth is easier for him along those lines than in any other way.
God as 'He,' as a patriarchal thing, is offensive to me. It's standard fare for America, 'He, He, He.' Every time I hear that it's like another blow against females. It's very radical talk at this point for females to say this kind of stuff, but nationwide I still hear females referring to God as 'He.'
God as "he," as a patriarchal thing, is offensive to me. It's standard fare for America - "he, he, he." Every time I hear that, it's like another blow against females. It's very radical talk at this point for females to say this kind of stuff, but nationwide, I still hear females referring to God as "he."
I didn't cook for the competition, I cooked for myself, I cooked for my loved ones, I cooked to represent my culture, I cooked to represent Chinese-American immigrants. I was proud of what I was able to accomplish under the conditions.
I grew up in a household where we cooked all the time. My mom cooked all the time; my dad cooked. My grandmothers cooked. I have memories of sitting on the counter and snapping green beans with my grandmother.
Growing up, I cooked in the house, and when I cooked, everyone would sit down and eat, and it was just kind of the way I connected with my family.
It's kind of a crazy thing with kid actors because a lot of them get hired without people really knowing if they're good or not. They get hired for the way they look at a really young age. You also have your fingers crossed around kid actors... because the lessons they learn on set aren't always the best. You can really get whatever you want.
Once working people discover that, collectively, we have more power than we do as individual silos, then we become an incredibly powerful force. But I think that there are powers that be that are invested in us remaining divided along racial lines, along economic lines.
Most things I get hired on, I get hired because I improvise something funny, or they just think I look weird.
I had always sung in my dad's shop. I worked there after school, and I'd be singing along with the top-40 records of the day.
If you are known to do something well, people want to see you do that. But what you choose to do is up to you. After 'Delhi Belly,' I got some 40 scripts - some on the same lines as 'Delhi Belly.' So, I guess people only get stereotyped if they want to.
You always get the odd comment, along the lines of the women are not as good as the men, and I get called a lesbian.
