  • Everyone in New York is fluid and thinking and inspiring each other.

  • I miss improv. I hate it in a way - watching it, doing it - but only because it's so challenging and nerve wracking. Improv is the only belief system I've ever experienced that directly works on how to be. Just how to be.

  • In a bigger picture, all over the world is a boys' club.

  • If people believe in your material, they will do whatever it takes to get it done. Even if they don't, but you make it as awesome an experience as possible, they will help you reach your goals.

  • I feel like a feminist is gender equality.

  • In every character that you play... I mean, I don't think I'll ever be the type of actor or performer per se who transforms, you know? Like Claire Danes transforms into Temple Grandin - I'm not gonna do that.

  • I don't take Twitter too seriously in the physical world.

  • We're big Hillary [Clinton] supporters. For a lot of reasons.

  • That's what's nice about being on Comedy Central. You can't show your boobs even if you wanted to.

  • There was this one lady in Colorado who made us something ceramic, where it could have been either a ring holder or a bowl cleaner. She was just like, "Here you go." And we were both like, "Oh my god! Thank yoooou!"

  • 'Broad City' [series] has a wild side, but it also has a very heartfelt side. It's very human.

  • "Diiiie men." If you play any Broad City episode backwards, that's all we're saying.

  • I think it'd be pretty cool to fly. Actually, I'd like to be Language Gal. My super power is that I can speak every language.

  • I'm surprised when people who don't usually smoke weed are into edibles. I can't believe that.

  • I'm talking ideal, I live in heaven, and my stomach is bottomless.

  • You can get real wacky on edibles.

  • I decided I would go to NYU so I could get into the comedy world and have legit housing, and my parents would not have trusted investing in a straight-up comedy career.

  • That's when you know you know somebody. When you know every piece of clothing they have in their wardrobe. That's friendship.

  • [Hollywood] is obviously so fake, but then comedy is this little carve-out of sincerity. I love it. I get to be funny and do this.

  • I vape with my parents in my house. My parents don't really get high, which bums me out. But I vape with them around. It's just like a glass of wine. The family of the future is parents and kids who get high together. That is crazy to me, but it's so cool. I like the fact that my parents are fine with it, even if they won't do it with me.

  • We're [with Ilana Glazer] both totally upfront and proud feminists. We're not being all secretive about it. I feel like we're pretty blatant in our approach.

  • It's interesting, gender versus race. I think people say that to women more: 'Oh, you're my favorite female.' They wouldn't say 'favorite black comic.'

  • There's this belief with no merit that media with women at the center applies only to women, but media with men at the center applies to everyone.

  • There is so much power in being able to look comfortable in a conference room, and I'm not sure dudes in suits are used to seeing women do that.

  • I think it's kind of crazy that we're still calling comedians "female comedians." That seems more like a sneak attack.

  • It's exciting to get to write characters that love each other and fight for each other.

  • I didn't start smoking weed till my junior year. I had a boyfriend who smoked a lot, and I was like, "Oh, I guess I'm moving on to this phase of life." I didn't fight it at all.

  • You got to miss class to do it. Like, many periods of school. And then they took us to an elementary or middle school, and we told kids that they could be cool when they grew up even if they didn't do drugs.

  • I'm not going to watch two TV shows with vaginas in them unless somebody tells me why they're different!

  • When we were on tour, a lot of people just dropped joints on the merch table for us. That was great. Every time, I was like, "Thank you so much."

  • I'm Language Gal. I can speak any language presented to me. And I look exactly like Halle Berry.

  • It's nice to have cool parents. They're cool with everything.

  • The nude thing, I don't know. It's sillier somehow. It's more like physical comedy. But kissing someone, it feels invasive to have everybody watching me.

  • Biking is a good alternative. Use the city as your gym.

  • You can survive in New York without much, if you're careful. You have to make your own food at home, and don't buy a lot of clothes.

  • I would love to host someone's bar mitzvah. I would love to do that.

  • I don't enjoy cooking when I'm high. And I don't want to be eating garbage because then I'll feel gross.

  • I don't want to watch people fighting.
