― Carrie Fisher

“I don’t want to make anyone else look stupid. That’s a privilege I reserve for myself.”

“Thanks for the good times. Thank you for being so generous with what you have withheld. Thank you for being the snake in my grass, the thorn in my side, the pain in my ass, the knife in my back, the wrench in my works, the fly in my ointment. My Achilles’ heart. Caught in a whirlpool without an anchor, relaxing into it, calmly going under for one of many last times.”
― Carrie Fisher, The Princess Diarist
