There are no available men in their thirties in New York. Giuliani had them removed along with the homeless.
I've seen wonderful stay-at-home moms and moms who could use a little improving.
I can't go on anymore bad dates. I would rather be home alone than out with some guy who sells socks on the internet.
I'm just a woman in love with another woman.
Doctor: Your right ovary has stopped producing eggs. Miranda: Is it possible it's just on strike?
They sent me the script and I was really charmed by it and I signed on.
Samantha: All married couples stop having sex eventually. Miranda: That's not true, you've had sex with plenty of married people. Samantha: That's how I know!
Miranda: I just got Brady to sleep. Dr. Leeds: Now, do you sing to him? Miranda: Only if he's been bad.

[My mother] worked in the Seagram's Building; it's kind of an iconic '60s skyscraper on a floor so high that your ears popped. And all the women - the whole thing was so very Mad Men, very glamorous.
My mother had me on four times [on TV show To Tell The Truth.]. Four times. Only once as a contestant, but they had a bunch of kids on at the beginning [of some shows], playing with toys or things like that.
My mother worked on a whole bunch of those; she worked on What's My Line?, I've Got A Secret, Play Your Hunch... In my memory, she worked on To Tell The Truth. So it was her job to brief the imposters.
Eleanor Roosevelt was painfully shy, painfully shy. So she overcompensated. In the same way that Nancy [Reagan] felt unattractive and unlovable and so everything had to be - hair had to be perfect, and the makeup and the clothes. Because she thought, "They don't think I'm pretty."
