More quotes by Laura Linney
Fear, anxiety and neurosis: that's just in the suitcase when you're an actor.
Laura Linney
What I hope in my ideal world is that with each project, I'll either get to work with a really great script that would force me to grow, or work with a really great actor who will make me better.
Laura Linney
I get cold - really cold - when I travel.
Laura Linney
Some people's personalities are so compelling that they command attention.
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
What people can survive and what they don't survive is shocking to me. Someone can go to Iraq and be blown to bits and survive. Someone can trip and fall on the street and they die - that's that.

Laura Linney
It's always nice when you do something and it's well received as opposed to the other way which God knows happens to everybody. When the good times come around, you take a deep breath, appreciate it, but not take it too seriously.
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
To be too knowing is a downfall.
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
I don't think you should exploit your own pain.
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
Cancer is so much bigger than a TV show.
Laura Linney
I'm not someone who likes to have my picture taken, let alone see it plastered all over the place.
Laura Linney
Fame didn't happen to me in my 20s, it has been a gradual thing which probably makes it easier to deal with.
