Molly Ringwald

I have a very independent spirit.

Whatever it is that gives you that confidence will vary from person to person, but I do believe that it is the key to succeeding at anything in life - career, relationships, anything.

When you say you're 40, you can't call yourself an ingenue any more.

When I do my makeup, it kind of helps me get into the character that I'm trying to portray.

I've always been very determined, ever since I was a little girl, to make my way.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.
