More quotes by Laura Dern
It's very easy to get caught up in - there's a hype going on now that I haven't seen in years, and it's actually more about press than it is about an actor's work or what films they've been in.
Laura Dern
When man decides he can control nature, he's in deep trouble
Laura Dern
My mother opened a bank account for me when I made $60 on my first day of work as an extra. She's that kind of mother.
Laura Dern
Whatever character you play, it gives you the chance to expose another side of yourself that maybe you've never felt comfortable with, or never knew about
Laura Dern
There's always a side of a woman that likes a man from the other side of the tracks
Laura Dern
I'm interested in human nature. That's why I chose to become an actor. Whatever people are struggling with, the struggle is often where the drama is.
Laura Dern
People have forever been interested in twins.

Luckily, I was raised by people whod already seen all the yuck stuff, which is why they originally didnt want me to act. I understood the difference between getting a part at a Hollywood party and getting a job.

As someone who has been asked to ask David Lynch what his movies mean for 25 years, I'm very careful about asking artists what their art means.
Laura Dern
The really courageous and bold thing is to make movies about human behaviour
Laura Dern
When you're playing someone who has a strong ego about themselves, you can't play them when you have the opposite opinion of the one they have of themselves.
Laura Dern
What do you say when someone has truly inspired you? How do you express to an artist how deeply their work has affected you?
Laura Dern
I wanted to go to Jupiter. That was my plan from day one, and David Lynch gave me the ticket.
Laura Dern
We like our archetypes and heroes to be what they are at face value. And life doesn't work out like that
Laura Dern
Wild at Heart made a few people angry-they thought I was exploiting women by showing that when a woman says no she really means yes.
Laura Dern
You're not directing an actor toward a thing they can't achieve. Because direction is elusive. When directors hold respect for the various craftsmen and -women who are telling the story, it's the greatest result. I think people do their bravest work when given an elusive canvas.
Laura Dern
I don't turn my nose up at anything. If it's a great part, it's a great part. It's not like, I don't make studio films I work for David Lynch and maybe a few American Playhouse directors, but that's it - I'd love to do a box-office hit.
Laura Dern
Unfortunately, overall, movies are a conglomerate. People buy and sell people in this business, which can get really ugly.
Laura Dern
Mr. Smith Goes to Washington is one of the greatest films of all time.
Laura Dern
I do think my mother was a bit overprotective, not in any sordid way, but just normally. She certainly might say to me, You know, Laura, I don't have a good feeling about that guy. I don't know if I want you to go out with him.
