More quotes by 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
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
To be too knowing is a downfall.
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.

At school I was always trying to con my teachers into letting me act out book reports instead of writing them.

Cancer is so much bigger than a TV show.
Laura Linney
I tend to make low-budget movies but, yeah, I make more money than I ever thought I would make.
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
Tanning is tricky, because a lot of people just look orange.
Laura Linney
A magnetic personality doesn't necessarily indicate a good heart.
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.
Laura Linney
I think everyone's journey through this crazy, weird, wild, wonderful area of work named acting is really their own. And if you're going for something that isn't yours, you're wasting time. You could be focused on your own work instead of thinking about somebody else.
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.
Laura Linney
My castings sort of go in phases. There'll be several icy professional parts - a lawyer or a cop. And then there'll be the intelligent-but-wounded group and then the period things. It goes in sequence.
