More quotes by Lena Dunham
The end never comes when you think it will. It's always ten steps past the worst moment, then a weird turn to the left.
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
I always imagined that having a baby is something that I'm going to keep in a private place, but maybe my curse is that all I'm going to want to do is tell everybody about what my birth process was like and what my children's nightmares are.
Lena Dunham
I had always written. I had written stories and poems. Then I started writing plays.
Lena Dunham

Lena Dunham
It's not brave to do something that doesn't scare you. Performing in sex scenes that I direct, exposing a flash of my weird puffy nipple, those things don't fall into my zone of terror.
Lena Dunham
When I graduated college I had a series of just humiliating jobs that I couldn't believe I was at.
Lena Dunham
I always thought the saddest feeling in life is when you're dancing in a really joyful way and then you hit your head on something.
Lena Dunham
I get a lot of unasked for sexual confessions.
Lena Dunham
This weird pressure that mothers are put under, like this idea that if you can't breastfeed, you're not doing something properly, or if you choose not to.
Lena Dunham
Here's who it's okay to share a bed with: . . . A heating pad. An empty bag of pita chips. The love of your life.
Lena Dunham
Survivors are so often re-victimized by a system that demands they prove their purity and innocence.
Lena Dunham
I am comforted by the fact that I find a real range of female bodies beautiful, and I hope that other people do too. And even if they don't find it beautiful I hope they're just glad that something like it is happening on TV.
Lena Dunham
I would rather spend my entire life doing nothing than have my name attached to something mediocre.
Lena Dunham
Here's what I have to say about being married: someday you will look at him, hating him with every fibre of your being, wishing that he would die the most violent death possible. It will pass.
