Lorna Luft
I think that when you're in your twenties you think about your future, when you're in your thirties you're raising kids and you think about their future, but when you get to a time when you are diagnosed with any kind of life altering illness, what did you take away from it? And what I took away from it was how to live in the now.
Lorna Luft
Instead of joyfully looking forward to my birth, my mother began systematically preparing for her own death. She was fatalistic.
Lorna Luft
I'm extraordinarily honored and proud when I am told that I am part of the Broadway community and part of the Broadway family. Because, Broadway is a family. And it doesn't matter if you did one show or if you did fifty shows.
Lorna Luft
When your parent is a public idol, you never really have a chance to lay that parent to rest.
Lorna Luft
I think every show I do, whether I am doing eight shows a week of a Broadway show... I think, that's a show I'll never get back... I go home at night and I think to myself, that was my favorite.
Lorna Luft
