Marriage Quote by Rashida Jones
“In my 20s everyone thought I was Fiona Apple. Now I'm either the wife from The King of Queens or somebody on Community...It's part of the fun. And in L.A. it still doesn't matter. I call up a restaurant and say, 'It's Rashida Jones," and I still get, 'Sorry, we don't have another reservation for a month.'”
