Picture of the moment;

Quotes;

Carrie: “Sometimes we need to stop analyzing the past, stop planning the future, stop figuring out precisely how we feel, stop deciding exactly what we want, and just see what happens.”

Carrie: "So just love, make mistakes, and have wonderful times, but never second guess who you are, where you have been, and most importantly, where it is you are going."

Carrie: "I'm looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love."

Carrie: "Shopping is my cardio."

Carrie: "When real people fall down in life, they get right back up and keep walking."

Carrie: "Oh my God! He's on-line. Can he see me?"

Carrie: "After he left, I cried for a week, and then I realised I do have faith. Faith in myself, faith that I would one day meet someone ... who would be sure that I was the one."

Carrie: "The longer I sat at that table, the more alone I felt. And it really hit me. I'm 35 and alone."
Miranda: "You are not alone."

Carrie: "I want to buy my apartment, but I have no money. I'm worth nothing."
Big: "You're worth a million bucks, Bradshaw."

Carrie: "Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous."

Carrie: "You shouldn't have to sacrifice who you are just because somebody else has a problem with it."

Carrie: "Maybe there are no right moments, right guys, right answers. Maybe you just have to say what's in your heart."

SJP Quotes;

“Thank you. I’ve never won anything in my life.” - on winning her 2000 Golden Globe Award for “Sex and the City” (1998)

“I tell my friends married life is boring, but that’s just a fun thing to say to make single people feel better.”

“Sarah Jessica is fine, Sarah, SJP, SJ, hey you, anything.” [on how to address her]

“The hardest part of leaving the show ["Sex and the City" (1998)] was this endless gypsy-like life that I’m back into, where it’s like being the new kid in school all the time, which for some people is very easy but for me is not. I don’t really like change, and I would like everything to be the same constantly, except that I love being terrified.”

“Celebrity and the media are reliant on each other - always have been - but we have lost the elegance in that relationship, somehow.”

“Fashion is a part of my work. I feel a responsibility to be presentable, to dress up if the occasion calls for it. But, really, fashion does not play that big a role in my life these days.”

“One of the things that’s great about New York is that it is not a one-industry town. It has education, academia, the service industry, arts, publishing, theater, politics, fashion, finance, as well as movie-making. There are so many people who are cogs in the great wheel of the city that a less bright light is shone on our lives. It still exists - there are always paparazzi at our house - but being a public person feels less like a business than it does in LA. And you have to approach it differently. I can’t hide behind gates, or in a car, but if I can get a few yards from my front door, I can still get lost in a crowd. I am always moments, just moments, from obscurity on a crowded street in New York.”

“I get the feeling people are disappointed with me because I don’t have the answers for them. I have to remind them that I don’t have a Ph.D. in sex or counseling."

SJP Looks Back On Her Red Carpet Highlights to Glamour

Sarah Jessica Parker took a walk down memory lane with Glamour recently, reminiscing about some of her more noteworthy looks. Highlights include the stunning voluminous dress she wore to the Sex and the City premiere in New York: “This entire dress weighed about a quarter of an ounce; it was one of the last Olivier [Theyskens] did for Nina Ricci,” as well as the beaded, corseted ball gown she donned for the Oscars earlier this year. “This was an old Christian Dior. It was the most amazing color; it was like pewter. It was minty and pistachio and far prettier than in the photographs,” she said. A custom maternity frock also ranks among her favorites, “Narciso Rodriguez made this: It was the reinvention of the maternity dress. I love that dress. I love the shoes, too; those were made for me by Mr. Blahnik. And my hair was super short: Serge Normant did my hair, which was very sweet of him considering that it was a very odd length.” While “odd” is hardly how we’d describe SJP’s style, we’re charmed by her candor as always.
