More quotes by Laura Linney
I get cold - really cold - when I travel.
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
The goal seems to me at times just to be business first.
Laura Linney
Some big movies are terrific, and some aren't. They're made for different reasons, and they have different impacts and they're very different experiences making them. But if they're good, if you're with good people, then hooray.

What people can survive and what they don't survive is shocking to me. Someone can go to Iraq and be blown to bits and survive. Someone can trip and fall on the street and they die - that's that.
Laura Linney
I love working closely with people.
Laura Linney
Ask why until there is no more why.
Laura Linney

To be too knowing is a downfall.
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
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
Comedy is a way to make sense of chaos. It's a way of dealing with things that are overwhelming, that threaten you it's a way to survive and get closer to the truth.
Laura Linney
I'm not someone who likes to have my picture taken, let alone see it plastered all over the place.
Laura Linney
When your life is being threatened there's an instinctive urge to fight. You fight for the time you have, for your relationships.
Laura Linney
I always laugh to myself when I listen to some really big A-list star saying that they are just a normal person.
Laura Linney
Collaboration. ... For me, it has informed every move I've ever made. And it saved me in many ways and still does. When things get hard, you can cling to the work.
Laura Linney
I am very lucky, because for the most part people are very nice to me, and I am still able to go about my life and ride the subway and all that.
Laura Linney
I had learning disabilities, and I couldn't express myself in the written word.
