Carrie Bradshaw

"I'm looking for love, real love, ridiculous, inconvenient, all-consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love."

"Maybe some women aren't meant to be tamed. Maybe they need to run free until they find someone just as wild to run with them."

"The most important thing in life is the people in this room. Maybe that's all that matters."

"And that's the thing about needs versus wants."

"I've spent so much time trying to change myself for men that I forgot to change for myself."

"You can't help who you fall in love with."

"Being single used to mean that nobody wanted you. Now it means you're pretty much a business."

"Maybe we can be each other's soulmates, and our real soulmates will be our soul mates."

"I'll have what she's having."

"After all, eyes are the window to the soul."

"The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese."

"That's the thing about living in New York, you can change your entire life in an afternoon."

"One day you love them, the next day you realize you don't."

"I've learned that my breasts are not a predictor of my fate."

"The most important thing is being yourself."

"Some people are settling down, some people are settling, and some people refuse to settle for anything less than butterflies."

"Maybe we're not supposed to be happy. Maybe we're supposed to be real."

"Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart."

"I'm thinking of making a pact with myself that no matter what I do, how successful I am, I never lose the me that I am now."

"When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible."

"The fact is, sometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes. That's why we need really special shoes."

"Why does it have to be so hard? Why can't it be like the movies?"

"I'm not a great writer. I'm not a great anything."

"Maybe the best relationships are the ones we don't expect."

"I feel like I'm a bad person, but for a very good reason."

"If we're happy, that's all that matters."

"Men who listen to NPR are usually marriage material."

"You throw the best parties."

"Maybe some people are meant to fall in love but not be together."

"I'm fabulous, but I'm also a mess."
