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.

More quotes by 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
I could never have predicted the invention of streaming, the rerelease of the show Gilmore Girls on Netflix, and that people still wanted to hear about it. I do love how we came back to it, but it was never up to me. It won't be up to me this time, either. If it ended there, I would be sad, but I also like what we did.
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
Today is the day you have to start believing in yourself. No one can do it for you anymore.
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 would like to be part of a family, however that looks. Family is really important to me.
Lauren Graham
Be truthful, say what you mean and mean what you say, don't ignore the given circumstances.
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
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
Maybe I should sit. Plenty of people use sitting as a way to pass the time.
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
If I had a normal job and had been moving up, I'd be management level now.
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
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
All TV shows are basically part of the same storyline.
Lauren Graham
Anyone can smile on their best day. I like to meet a man who can smile on his WORST.
Lauren Graham
It's also show business. It's not show fun friends.
Lauren Graham
None of my characters have really had jobs.
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
