Nothing in This World Is Easy

Russian Doll 1×1

Maxine: Hey, birthday baby! It's laced with cocaine like the Israelis do it. Are you having fun?
Nadia: Fun is for suckers, Max. Two minutes ago, I turned 36. Staring down the barrel of my own mortality always beats fun.

Nadia: Do ladies have midlife crises?

Lizzy: ...a 22 year old.
Nadia: Does she know what 9/11 is?
Lizzy: Does anyone?

Maxine: Sweet birthday baby! Having fun?... It's laced with cocaine like the Israelis do it.

Maxine: Why would it be weird?

Nadia: I think I'm dead.
Jordana: We're all dead.
Lizzy: Sees a Fellini film once...

Maxine: Sweet birthday baby, having fun?

Nadia: The universe is trying to fuck with me, and I refuse to engage! Do you hear me? I won't do it!

Nadia: I am not a cockroach! Why would you call me a cockroach? What does that even fucking mean, a cockroach?!
Maxine: You can eat anything, take anything, do anything. It's impossible to destroy you. You'll never die.
Nadia: I am dying constantly! Ouch!
