More quotes by Lena Dunham
I'm glad if my work can make a difference.
Lena Dunham
When I graduated college I had a series of just humiliating jobs that I couldn't believe I was at.
Lena Dunham
Enjoy going through life as yourself.
Lena Dunham
I find it really awkward to do a scene where I'm supposed to seem like I'm in love.
Lena Dunham
You can't force other people to like you and you just kind of have to ride the wave. I think I could have saved myself a lot of sleepless nights with that advice.
Lena Dunham
I just hope that I continue to keep a line between my private life and who I play, even if they are closely intertwined, and so I'm careful. I don't even know where my line is, but I know I have a line.
Lena Dunham
Don't wait around for someone else to tell your story. Do it yourself by whatever means necessary.
Lena Dunham
I always say that I can play sort of six variations on one girl, all of whom are a variation on me. Maybe I'll think of myself as an actor if, like, I do a corset drama.
Lena Dunham
It's very easy for me to say what success is. I think success is connecting with an audience who understands you and having a dialogue with them. I think success is continuing to push yourself forward creatively and not sort of becoming a caricature of yourself.
Lena Dunham
I never set out to make any statements about a specific character, I just set out to tell what feels like is a truthful story, a person that you and I might truly encounter.
Lena Dunham
You know, I always think of myself as sort of ready for every criticism.
Lena Dunham
I wish that author [ E. L. James] all the success in the world. It's just not for me.
Lena Dunham
Positive, healthy, loving relationships in your twenties... I don't know if anyone would disagree with it: I think they're the exception, not the norm. People are either playing house really aggressively because they're scared of what an uncertain time it is, or they're avoiding commitment altogether.
Lena Dunham
You should always go where there is a 'you-shaped' hole in the world.
Lena Dunham
It's almost like when you're young, your friends take on the romance role, and then guys take on the role of your friends later.
Lena Dunham
If a young woman is looking at the landscape of Hollywood, what she sees is almost only challenges.
Lena Dunham
My sister is bold, independent, and not afraid to wear overalls. Some of her first words as a child were that's not fair, and she's been committed to social justice ever since. She's my hero.
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
I don't really have a place where people can reach me via email because it got a little overwhelming. People tweet things at me like, oh DM me for a great story that you'll definitely need to use on the show, which I don't, you know, DM them.
Lena Dunham
I think that it's very important to be with someone who makes you feel like the best version of yourself. In some sense, your partner is a mirror, and you have to like what they're reflecting back at you.
Lena Dunham
