More quotes by Lulu Wang

Americans always talk about family love being unconditional, and I realized that I didn't feel that way.

In my family, and especially when I go back to China, it's always like, prepare your stomach, because it's the way that they express love.

Sometimes America is so great because it brings all of us together, but sometimes it can be so limiting because it puts labels on things.

We all have different aspects of ourselves, and who we are to different people in our lives, at different stages of our lives.

The questions I want to ask will revolve around humans, connection, relationships, family, and stories - what are the stories we tell ourselves and each other?
