“Opposites attract but only to torture each other.”
Judy Balan, Sophie Says

“Comedy is hard work. People expect you to be funny 24/7. So if you're not constantly cracking up your friends, it can hurt you professionally. They may not read your book or come to your show. 'She's a comedian? She's not that funny!' It's unfair 'cause when cardio surgeon friends say they cut chests open and hold hearts in their hands, everyone just takes their word for it.”
Judy Balan

“I love therapy. I don't get the taboo about seeking therapy at all. It's exactly like taking Buzzfeed quizzes. At the end of the day, we all want to know what cocktail we are. But it means so much more when it comes from a shrink. It's like 'Ooh, I really am Liquid Cocaine!”
Judy Balan

“Opposites attract but only to torture each other.”
Judy Balan, Sophie Says

“Whoever took that theory about magnets and started applying it to people, needs to have his posterior kicked!”
Judy Balan, Sophie Says

“I am a Tamilian by geographical disposition and a Roman Catholic by faith. A very unfortunate combination, if you ask me. Because not only did I get stuck with a name like Sophia Thilagam, I was also frequently subject to the aesthetically disturbing sight of crimson red, Kanjeevaram silk sarees with loud, gold borders worn with Colgate-white veils and equally unsubtle tiaras to match. The Tamil Catholic wedding, of course.”
Judy Balan, Sophie Says

“They are easy enough to recognize. They are the ones who say things like 'You love me, you just don't know it yet.”
Judy Balan, Sophie Says

“I don't get it. Why would you want to endure someone who squeezes the toothpaste the wrong way and deprives you of a simple pleasure every morning?”
Judy Balan, Sophie Says
