Carrie Fisher was most notable for her role as Princess Leia in the Star Wars Series and even made a digital appearance in the most recent Star Wars edition-Rogue One. She tried her hand in screenwriting for hit movies like Sister Act, Outbreak and The Wedding Singer. Fisher’s role as an actress, feminist, writer, mental health activista and humorist, makes her perfectly qualified to produce some pretty amazing quotes.
