Ten Carrie Bradshaw Quotes to Live By

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UK chapter.

For those of you who have never seen Sex and the City (how?!?), it is an iconic show about four 30-something year old women in New York City living their fabulous lives. The show mostly deals with relationships, and the main character Carrie Bradshaw has a lot of commentary on this subject throughout the series. Below are some of the best quotes from Carrie that I try to live by myself.

1. “The most exciting, challenging, and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself.” -Carrie

2. “I like my money where I can see it – hanging in my closet.” -Carrie

3. “Maybe some women aren’t meant to be tamed, maybe they need to run free until they find someone just as wild to run with.”

4. “They say nothing lasts forever. Dreams change, trends come and go, but friendships never go out of style.”

5. “Maybe our girlfriends are our soulmates, and guys are just people to have fun with.”

6. “I will never be the woman with the perfect hair, who can wear white and not spill on it.”

7. “I’m looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can’t live-without-each-other love.”

8. “When men attempt bold gestures, generally it’s considered romantic. When women do it, it’s often considered desperate or psycho.”

9. “You shouldn’t have to sacrifice who you are just because somebody else has a problem with it.”

10. “It wasn’t logic, it was love.”

Hopefully you can apply some of these quotes to your own life and hopefully this will convince you to watch Sex and the City if you haven’t already.
