More quotes by Lena Dunham
But I am a girl with a keen interest in having it all, and what follows are hopeful dispatches from the frontlines of that struggle.
Lena Dunham
I had no clue what anyone was talking about like, you know I don't think I, I don't think any of the depictions of sex were more to me than just like an image of two people's arms rubbing together [when I was eight], I just had no clue.
Lena Dunham
Feminists believe that men and women should have the same opportunities. If you are a feminist you believe in equal rights as a whole. That’s not a concept you can really shoot down.
Lena Dunham
You have to move so you don't die. You have to move so your brain doesn't atrophy. You have to move so that you look a little bit like a person that you might want to be. There are a thousand reasons why exercise is important, and I've had to find ways to make it sexy for myself.
Lena Dunham
I think that social networking makes people more connected, yet more distant, so there are people with less ties to real friend groups and less a sense of self.

My shape reminds me a lot of my grandmother, whom I was really close to. She died when I was 13, and we have a really similar body type, the squat New England woman who can roll out dough and bring in your lawnmower. That's kind of the vibe of my body, and I'm into it.
Lena Dunham
I am thinking particularly of a shower I took where the lower half of my body was under the running water and the upper half was laid out on the bath mat, eating a loaf of bread.
Lena Dunham
I'm really lucky because I surround myself onset with people who I really trust to give me feedback, so I'm directing myself.
Lena Dunham
I'm just waiting to be 85 and be in a pajama community. Everyone's welcome to join me.
Lena Dunham
I'm always afraid that I'm being unprofessional, yet I continue to sign all my e-mails 'xoxo.'
Lena Dunham
We're the last f - ing people who have a f - ing opinion on what you should do with your body. Anything that makes your day easier, as long as you're not feeding your baby crack in milk, is really good by us.
Lena Dunham
My dad once told me that he would rather I had an old boyfriend than a tall boyfriend. I don't know why, I think he's just feels stressed by... He' not that short I just think the idea of a really tall guy is super anxiety producing to him. And now I'm with neither old guy nor a very tall guy. So everything has worked out perfectly.
Lena Dunham
The current economic climate means getting out of college is no guarantee of getting a job, and no guarantee of a satisfying work life. My Dad feels that this is the first generation of Americans that expects that there children will have a harder time then they did. That's a fascinating concept.
Lena Dunham
I'm not jealous in traditional ways - of boyfriends or babies or bank accounts - but I do covet other women's styles of being.
Lena Dunham
I’m not super thin, but I’m thin, for like, Detroit
Lena Dunham
Don't wait around for someone else to tell your story. Do it yourself by whatever means necessary.
Lena Dunham
I sometimes want to make a book of every tattoo I wanted to get before I actually got a tattoo, because there were so many awful ideas and concepts.
Lena Dunham
Things that feel super personal actually feel really universal. It's sort of the more you really identify something specific within yourself, the more people connect to it because ultimately we are all connected in some way.
Lena Dunham
Barbie’s disfigured. It’s fine to play with her just as long as you keep that in mind.
Lena Dunham
I think about my best friendship - which the Marnie-Hannah friendship in Girls is based on - as like a great romance of my young life.
