The thing that's different about 'Girls' and 'Sex and the City' isn't just that we live in Brooklyn; it's that these girls aren't trying to find their major career paths or life partners. They're just literally trying to get through the week and pay the rent. It's a really different time of life.

American Director

Natasha Rothwell

Teaching theater, I felt very lucky. In a world where there's few options for someone who graduates with a theater degree, trying to figure out how to make rent and pay the bills, I always gravitated towards teaching jobs and things like that. I wanted to stay close to my passion as well.

By the time you are in your thirties, most of the time, you've got a job, you can pay for your rent, you can create this nice world around you. And still, you're only in your thirties - you're not that far away from your twenties, which is when you're making all of your stupid mistakes.

British Designer

Kristen Stewart

Wilford Brimley

Israeli Author

I've had an unusual career in that I've never had a big break, but the rent always seemed to get paid.

Lawrence Summers

In the history of the world, no one has ever washed a rented car.

Rent is usually paid regularly, often monthly.

Regular Payment

Rent most commonly applies to living spaces like apartments and houses.

Living Spaces

Agreement Needed

This sense of 'rent' is about damage, like tears or rips.

Damage Context

Visual Cue

This 'rent' implies force or violence and is not common.

Violent Action

Suddenness

 Of course, people proved that wrong. But one of the reasons it succeeded, aside from a good business model, a good idea, great execution, is the timing. That company came out right during the height of the recession when people really needed extra money, and that maybe helped people overcome their objection to renting out their own home to a stranger.
