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.

More quotes by Lauren Graham
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.
Lauren Graham
As I've gotten older, I've gotten more liberal, and my father is increasingly conservative. It's so shocking to me because I always thought we had the same politics. The day I realized we voted for different presidents, I practically fell out of my chair.
Lauren Graham
The best part of getting to do what you like is just doing it. That doesn't have to do with being famous or even successful or even powerful. I see people in life who are just doing a job and seem to be having a good time. And that's the trick.
Lauren Graham
Some people think my father was a spy, because of working for that government agency in Vietnam, but he can't find his car keys, much less keep a national secret.
Lauren Graham
I must work harder to achieve my goal of not seeking approval from those whose approval I'm not even sure is important to me.
Lauren Graham
I just don't know that a TV show demands a movie ending.
Lauren Graham
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
I've spent a lot of time wondering, What's going to happen? What's going to happen? I try not to allow myself to do that much anymore. I think ive gotten more comfortable with the unknown.
Lauren Graham
The thing you must really do in television is bring yourself to everything you do - you can't try to be anybody else.
Lauren Graham
Anyone can smile on their best day. I like to meet a man who can smile on his WORST.
Lauren Graham
Be truthful, say what you mean and mean what you say, don't ignore the given circumstances.
Lauren Graham
All my references are 50 years old-when somebody shot J.R., you know? Oh my god, I'm 100!
Lauren Graham
If I had a normal job and had been moving up, I'd be management level now.
Lauren Graham
I have to introduce the part of me that feels like a winner to the part of me convinced I’m a loser, and see if they can’t agree to exist somewhere closer to the middle.
Lauren Graham
I've made out more this season on a family-friendly show than ever in my actual life.
Lauren Graham
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.
Lauren Graham
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.
Lauren Graham
It's also show business. It's not show fun friends.
Lauren Graham
Well, it's more of a sane life to be part of an ensemble! I find that the work can be more specific too and I have to really make sure I know where I am in the story because I'm not in every scene.
Lauren Graham
We're all working hard, but so far away from what we actually want to be doing. We're all peering in at the window of a party we aren't invited to yet, a party we wouldn't know how to dress for, or what kind of conversation to make, even if we came as someone's guest.
Lauren Graham
