Krysten Ritter

I’m having a great time. I get to travel and see the world. And yeah, I’ll have a family, because I don’t want to miss out on that amazing experience, but it’s not defining who I am.

I think it’s important to be flexible and free, and you can’t be free and spontaneous if you don’t know what you’re doing.

When you go to Marvel, they lock you in a room with the scripts; they really are that secretive.

I’ve always been very positive and very resilient.

If you really want something, you’ve gotta just do it and not wait for other people to hand it to you.

I like to audition for good projects because if it’s a good project, it’s an opportunity to get in front of a casting director.

I think men are afraid to be with a successful woman, because we are terribly strong, we know what we want and we are not fragile enough.

It’s great if the in-laws themselves put up boundaries. But if they won’t; it’s up to their grown kids to do it and enforce them.

You know, I’m automatically attracted to beautiful – I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything….Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.

I think you have different soul mates throughout your life, that your soul needs different things at different times.

Breakups are a horrible thing for almost everybody I know. For someone who is a love addict, it’s debilitating.

Lasting love and forgiveness are two sides of the same page.

To get the full value of joy you must have someone to divide it with.

Strange to see how a good dinner and feasting reconciles everybody.

Do not just look at your boyfriend as just a boyfriend. Look at him as a friend, too.

Friendship with oneself is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

I was lucky I always got along with girls. It was never like a big deal. I had a lot of girls that I was friends with that I wasn’t sexual with. I think having two older sisters made me comfortable like that. I just like people, so I can just go up and say whatever.

There is nothing wrong with your marriage if you’re dealing with bills and kids and the broken garbage disposal and in-laws and work demands. That’s a normal marriage.

Bias has to be taught. If you hear your parents downgrading women or people of different backgrounds, why, you are going to do that.

Business, you know, may bring money, but friendship hardly ever does.

The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one’s relationship has a glowing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing, it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of Divine accident.
