Mindy Kaling Quotes About Character

• Chicas adolescentes, por favor, no os preocupéis por ser superpopulares en el instituto, o por ser la mejor actriz del instituto, o la mejor atleta. No sólo a la gente no le importa nada de eso en cuanto te gradúas, sino que cuando te haces mayor, si haces demasiada referencia a tus éxitos en el instituto, en realidad das un poco pena, como un viejo personaje balbuceante de Tennessee Williams sin nada más en su vida actual. Lo que he observado es que casi nadie que haya sido una gran estrella en el instituto lo es también más adelante. Para nosotros, los chicos ignorados, es maravillosamente justo.

• I had these kind of unrealistic expectations that were fueled by romantic comedies, and it has both helped me and hurt me in many ways. It helped me because, in general, they've made me hopeful. I just figure things will eventually work out for me. But nobody is like any Tom Hanks character. Nobody is Hugh Grant. No one is Meg Ryan!

• Here's my feeling: For everyone, men and women, it's important to be a feminist. It's important to have female characters. It's wonderful for women to mentor other women, but it's just as important for women to mentor men and vice-versa. In my line of work, having Greg Daniels be such a great mentor to me is fantastic. Finding a writer's assistant, be it a man or a woman, and encouraging them to think with a feminist perspective, is key.

• Sometimes I eavesdrop on people. I could rationalize it - oh, this is good anthropological research for characters I'm writing - but it's basically just nosiness. It also helps me gauge where I'm at: Am I normal?

• Cuando era pequeño, escribí una obra sobre unos personajes que vivían en una casa encantada. Había una bruja que vivía allí, y una momia. Cuando todos le molestaban, el tipo que había comprado la casa -no puedo creer que me acuerde de esto- les decía: "¿Quién paga la hipoteca de esta casa encantada?". Me pareció muy gracioso.

  Interview with Keith Phipps, film.avclub.com. April 4, 2007.

• When you only do 10 episodes for a final season, every character and all of her interactions in every storyline have so much more import because it's the last time we're going to do it. It's been really helpful saying, "OK, where do we want each of these characters to end?" We have 10 episodes to do it and working backward from that, I kind of envy my friends who have always been on a cable network because this is really that great benefit of doing it this way.

• As a kid, I always loved serialized books. It’s the reason why people love Harry Potter. Serialization is amazing. It works in television. It works in film and it works in books. Especially when you’re a young kid, you get attached to these 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."

• It used to be that you had to make female TV characters perfect so no one would be offended by your 'portrayal' of women. Even when I started out on 'The Office' eight years ago, we could write our male characters funny and flawed, but not the women. And now, thankfully, it's completely different.

• We have this saying, and it's been very useful when a series, 'The Mindy Project' goes for longer than a hundred episodes, which is Mindy character can never get what she wants when she wants it. We enjoyed it because it felt very real to her character to make a big impulsive move and it seems like she has everything, this instant family, a guy she loves and then there's a moment of panic.
