If you do have something you love to do, the fun part of the job is no different than what was fun about doing it in high school for no money. I thought there would be some greater reward in succeeding.

I just don't know that a TV show demands a movie ending.

The thing I don't like on television is when somebody does something that makes absolutely no sense just for the shock of it.
Lauren Graham
Image
I think there's more pressure to stand out in a way that is measurable externally. The fame culture is definitely way worse and weirder than it was when we were in high school.
Lauren Graham
Image
I didn't grow up identifying with beauty. I grew up thinking I could be smart and funny - those are the things I got feedback on.

As actors we always say that once the person in a scene gets what they want, the scene is over. It's resolved. But life is never resolved - you're always in the process.

Be truthful, say what you mean and mean what you say, don't ignore the given circumstances.

I am here to tell you there's nothing in people knowing you. There's actually a loss in that! Really, the reward in life is genuinely the day of work you have. It's not the name you're making for yourself or the clicks and likes - it's such an illusion.

Actors should ACT. Not sell perfume, or write cookbooks.

Image
Growing up an only child with a single parent is probably why I'm an actor.
Lauren Graham
Image
I would like to be part of a family, however that looks. Family is really important to me.
Lauren Graham
Image
I personally was driven to be an actor for the love of telling a story. It was very closely linked to being a reader as a kid and being transported by literature and art. It had nothing - zero - to do with anything resembling fame.
Lauren Graham
Image
That's the thing that always stuck out to me - the idea that quantity becomes quality. I always took it to mean if you do anything enough, if you keep putting effort in, eventually something will happen, with or without you. You don't have to have faith when you start out, you just have to dedicate yourself to practice as if you have it.
