More quotes by Lena Dunham

I can never be who I was. I can simply watch her with sympathy, understanding, and some measure of awe. There she goes, backpack on, headed for the subway or the airport. She did her best with her eyeliner. She learned a new word she wants to try out on you. She is ambling along. She is looking for it.
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
I'm just waiting to be 85 and be in a pajama community. Everyone's welcome to join me.
Lena Dunham
I would go to work from 9 to 6, go home, nap for two hours, then write from 8 to 2 a.m.
Lena Dunham

Lena Dunham
Throughout the day I often ask myself, Could I fall asleep right now? and the answer is always a resounding yes.
Lena Dunham
I feel like you don't know if someone's equipped for a romantic relationship until they're out of their twenties.

Aren't most of us dealing with the fact that we have moms who either weren't ready to be moms or had some level of resentment about it? Everybody is dealing with the different iteration of pain their mom has handed them.
