More quotes by 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
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
Most scripts are written to be green lit. They're not written to be acted. And a lot of writers with the greatest intention in the world don't write for actors. They don't understand the architecture of what an actor needs to get from point A to point B.
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
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 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
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
Ask why until there is no more why.
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
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
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 tend to make low-budget movies but, yeah, I make more money than I ever thought I would make.
Laura Linney
Some people's personalities are so compelling that they command attention.
Laura Linney
I don't think you should exploit your own pain.
Laura Linney
I get cold - really cold - when I travel.
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
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.
Laura Linney
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.
