Carrie Fisher dedicated her platform to mental health awareness & female empowerment. She is a reason + reminder to keep up your fight. RIP

If you haven't read Carrie Fisher's books yet, go read them. She was so talented and charismatic. Her life is inspiring.

Carrie Fisher was smart, funny, talented, surprising, and always a hell of a fun time to be around. Family Guy will miss her immensely.

The fact that "Postcards From The Edge" inspired me even more than "Star Wars" is really saying something. #CarrieFisher

Carrie Fisher was a such a big part of life here in L.A. The world has lost another great talent and a wonderful person. Love & Mercy.

So sad to hear about the unique Carrie Fisher. Once, at the White House, I got to tell her the story of how she accidentally saved my life.

If we want to honor Carrie Fisher's legacy, let's work to destigmatize mental illness in ways both big and small. It's up to us. ❤️

A promise for 2017: be more like Carrie Fisher. Be proud of who you are, every single part you and show that to the world.

Being funny, battling addiction, de-stigmatizing mental illness, Star Wars. Carrie Fisher embodied so many things that mean so much to me.
