I'm very hard on my bags because I tend to carry a lot of stuff with me.
Laura Linney
What I love about a play is that it's such an investment because only time can create a lot of what happens onstage.
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.

The goal seems to me at times just to be business first.
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.
