More quotes by Laura Linney
Traits like humility, courage, and empathy are easily overlooked - but it's immensely important to find them in your closest relationships.
Laura Linney
The goal seems to me at times just to be business first.
Laura Linney
Tanning is tricky, because a lot of people just look orange.
Laura Linney
Ask why until there is no more why.
Laura Linney
I love working closely with people.
Laura Linney
I know what people want to hear is the connection with the son, Roger, when you have a child. I would love to tell that there was an epiphany as to what it is to be a mom, but I didn't feel any difference there.
Laura Linney
Some people's personalities are so compelling that they command attention.
Laura Linney
A magnetic personality doesn't necessarily indicate a good heart.
Laura Linney
I tend to make low-budget movies but, yeah, I make more money than I ever thought I would make.
Laura Linney
Our culture is set up on a feud mentality, or a Housewives mentality, that women just fight. And it's such a shallow way to exist as far as our evolution is concerned, and our culture is concerned. It's fun to watch women fight, in a storytelling way, but in the world, women shouldn't be seen as a threat to other women.
Laura Linney
I'm not someone who likes to have my picture taken, let alone see it plastered all over the place.
Laura Linney
I had learning disabilities, and I couldn't express myself in the written word.
Laura Linney
When you're dying, you're liberated to do what you want to do. You give yourself permission. I think everyone's experience with a terminal disease is so deeply personal and unique to the person, the context in which they're living and the relationships that they have.
Laura Linney
Cancer is so much bigger than a TV show.
Laura Linney
People have to look to the right places for guidance. Looking at a certain type of entertainment shouldn't be where you go for guidance. To zone out, have a laugh, sure - but it's not a great example on how to navigate on a journey. There are other places to look.
Laura Linney
I think the way we talk about cancer has really evolved. I remember the way my grandmother used to talk about it, like a death sentence, no-one would even mention the word.
Laura Linney
Fame didn't happen to me in my 20s, it has been a gradual thing which probably makes it easier to deal with.
Laura Linney
I never felt like a happy-go-lucky ingenue to begin with. And parts are written better when you're older. When you're young, you're written to be an ingenue, and you're written to be a quality. You're actually not written to be a person, you're written for your youth to inspire someone else, usually a man. So I find it just much more liberating.
Laura Linney
At school I was always trying to con my teachers into letting me act out book reports instead of writing them.
Laura Linney
I love actors, regardless of where they are in their skill level. There's something terribly satisfying about working with someone who's really learning.
