I thought about starting a novella club because it seemed less ambitious.

The end never comes when you think it will. It's always ten steps past the worst moment, then a weird turn to the left.

I deserved kisses. I deserved to be treated like a piece of meat but also respected for my intellect.

The biggest fear that everybody has is dying. Not to get too meta on you, but I think every fear that people are trying to work out is really like I'm going to die and no one is going to care, and it doesn't matter because God might not exist. That's what people are trying to figure out. I wish we all had one fear so we could think about it together and figure out a solution, but we're all doing different things.

There's a certain grace to having your heart broken.

On a personal level, I'm proud of Grace Dunham for being so staunchly in her identity. It's a very unusual thing for a young person. I think she's been very strong about it.

I'm always having to be told to brush my hair.
