Rashida Jones

"I love guys and the way they think; they're so straightforward - and women can learn from that."

"I love romantic comedies. I have a deep respect for them. I think they're really difficult to write and write well."

"I think there's just an inherent burden of being alive and being a woman. No man would ever admit that, but I think women know it, which is: You know more than men, you know more than most people you're dealing with every day, and you know that's it up to you to make things move forward, and you get paid half as much, but you just do it."

"I want a baby and I want a family, for sure."

"I'm friends with a lot of my exes, but it took time. We didn't just get into it. I don't think you can be friends until you're cool with them dating someone else. That's when you know."

"Just because a situation is grim doesn't mean you don't have every right to smile."

"Mom is the most unconditionally loving person I will ever know, and she has always supported me on every level."

"Music is hugely important to me."

"My dad always tell me to make decisions from love and not from fear."

"My parents are the coolest of the cool on every single level, and it's because they have a deep appreciation for every moment of their lives."

"There's a definite responsibility that comes with being famous. You shouldn't be able to just dress up and look pretty."

"Well, dating has become a sport and not about finding the person you love."

"Women have been interesting forever."

"Women tend to double-speak - I'm definitely guilty of that."

"You know, I grew up on romantic comedies, and it's hard to find a new way to tell that story."
