Life

Quote_1.png
Claire Danes

Teenager

Quote_1.png
Claire Danes

Career

Quote_1.png
Claire Danes

Growing up

Quote_1.png
Claire Danes
"But I don't know if people are meant to be together. You have to have a lot in common, choose well and be really fortunate. It's not like you're sprinkled with fairy dust. You have to believe that love will be there when you need it."

Love

Quote_1.png
Claire Danes
"I really liked Yale, although it was extremely intimidating. When I visited the campus, I was hiding behind trees, I felt so unworthy."

Trees

"I would sign on for projects that were meant to shoot in July, and then they would postponed and they would bleed into the following semester, and then I'd take a semester off, and then the movie would collapse."

July

Claire Danes
"Fame doesn't end loneliness."

End

Quote_1.png
Claire Danes
"When I was 18 I went to college for two years and didn't work for a year which was essential for me, because my identity had been so influenced by my being an actor and I think I just needed to discover what it was to be myself, divorced from all that responsibility."
