1. When she stole our hearts as Princess Leia in Star Wars

Beautiful, witty, charming, and strong, Princess Leia continues to inspire us all.

2. And showed us that ex-boyfriends make you do crazy things in The Blues Brothers

3. She made us laugh as Marie in When Harry Met Sally

4. And shocked the world when she confirmed her romance with co-star, Harrison Ford

Fisher's most recent memoir, 'The Princess Diarist' included journal entries from over 40 years ago while on the set of the first Star Wars film. And the majority of it's content included details of her relationship with Ford.

Her honesty in the books and memoirs she has written, is another reason why we love her.

5. She entertained us with this 2015 interview from Good Morning America

6. And brought her dog Gary to The Force Awakens premiere

Her french bulldog has appeared on various interviews, events, and on set with Carrie. He even has his own Twitter and Instagram accounts.

The two are always together, and it's refreshing to see such a bond between them. A win for dog lovers everywhere!

7. She explained just how strong a person is for living with a mental illness

As someone that struggled with bipolar disorder and addiction (especially at the beginning of her career), Fisher was an advocate speaker on the topic and inspired many.

8. And got George Lucas to smile as she roasted him back in 2005

Thank you Carrie Fisher for making us laugh and inspiring us all.

You are a true princess and an even better queen.

We have unique flirting skills.

Us girls have a significant way to flirt with other people. Even when we say the most random or awkward things, we have a way of making everything sound cute and planned. It’s just a gift; we’re good like that.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.

Queen B always had the best life lessons.

It's okay to be crazy sometimes.

You never give up on the people you love.

Always know your own worth.

Don't take shit from anyone.

Tights are not pants. But leggings might be...

It's always okay to break down once in a while.

There's nothing that can't be solved by a shopping spree

Stay classy, even if you're pissed off.

You never need to act on your emotions.

No matter how rough it gets, it could always be worse.

Be dedicated to your own success.

And if people don't love you, that's okay.

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

We have unique flirting skills.

We know how to fight back.

We pick pretty great friends.

We have a pretty great fashion sense.

We each have one heck of an imagination.
