So Lena Dunham turns 28 today, and it’s been a pretty good year for her so far. She completed the third season of “Girls,” looked beautiful on the cover of Vogue, and stunned everyone in her yellow dress at the Golden Globes. In honor of her pretty fab twenty-eight years, we thought we’d celebrate with a roundup of our favorite Lena Dunham quotes:
1. “The only topic on which I’m almost political about is what I think that this country is doing to women and their body image. I was a babysitter before I was working in film, and I would hear like 7 year-old girls that I babysat say, ‘I think I need to go on a diet,’ and it cracks my heart open.”
2. “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.”
3. “I love flawed female characters, duking it out.”
4. “I’m always afraid that I’m being unprofessional, yet I continue to sign all my e-mails “xoxo.””
