Laura Linney
I've always thought that I'm sexy in my own right, but not in a way that people thought was bankable.
Laura Linney
I get cold - really cold - when I travel.
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
To be too knowing is a downfall.
Laura Linney
Tanning is tricky, because a lot of people just look orange.

We all have a limited amount and that it's a privilege to grow old. That's something that I think a lot of people have forgotten in this very fast-paced world where youth is overly celebrate.
