Laura Linney
I don't think you should exploit your own pain.
Laura Linney

Things get complicated at times, so there are certainly moments when you wish your life were different. That's true for everybody, not just people in our profession. But there's nothing I feel like I gave up professionally. I'm absolutely doing what I enjoy.
Laura Linney
To be too knowing is a downfall.
Laura Linney
