More From Emily Mortimer
- "I borrowed my friend’s car the other day in an attempt to persuade my husband that we needed a car and literally this is true, in the first day of borrowing the car, I got three tickets and I rear-ended it."
- "I’m still shy – I’m no good at my children’s parent-teacher conferences, and I’m slowly learning how to ask for what I want. But I now know that I have a reserve of courage to draw upon when I really need it. There’s nothing that I’m too scared to have a go at."
- "Lots of people there seemed to be in denial, in absolute denial, of death – everybody’s pretending that death doesn’t happen in L.A.; if you do enough exercise and take enough wheatgrass and have your pill every day, you might not die."

- "Ten to 20 years out, driving your car will be viewed as equivalently immoral as smoking cigarettes around other people is today."― Marc Andreessen
- "To make a love story, you need a couple of young people, but to reflect on the nature of love, you’re better off with old ones. That is a fact of life and literature – and of the novel ever since it fell in love with love in the 18th century."― James Buchan
