More quotes by Natasha Lyonne
I have a theory that self-made, first-generation actresses don't feel entitled to success.
Natasha Lyonne
No, but it is something I really enjoy speaking about. You've got to do something with all the books you've read, so you might as well imagine you've optioned them.
Natasha Lyonne
I often think my boyfriend is going to leave me just from seeing how I talk to the dog. But you know, when you are talking to your dog, you are accessing this softer side of you. Everything else melts away.
Natasha Lyonne
I definitely would rather take a nap than get angry.
Natasha Lyonne
Remember when we didn't live in the future? When we were young, it was not the future yet.
Natasha Lyonne
I have a lot of friends who are trying to clean up their act, or that are still making trouble for themselves, so I’m definitely well-versed on what goes on in the mind and the heart of a person who self-destructs as their coping mechanism, and also what they’re like when you take their preferred substance away.
Natasha Lyonne
I have a deep compassion for the idea that it's okay to be myself. The idea that anything 'other' is bad and wrong and broken is so wildly off base.
Natasha Lyonne
As a New Yorker, or wherever I am, I just want to know I can get our of the house in five minutes if I have to and not have to spend a bunch of time obsessing in the mirror, trying on a million different options. Now, I just know what works.
Natasha Lyonne
It's such a weird thing: to sit and look at yourself is so distracting to the psyche. It would be like me standing in front of a mirror and looking at myself all day, trying to find a flaw.
Natasha Lyonne
What I like to do is to give my real name in Starbucks but be really hostile each time, as if they're asking me something that I've never heard in my life. I give them a really dirty look, Really? It's Natasha. Okay? Like I've never been to Starbucks before. Each time. I enter the premises looking for combat.
Natasha Lyonne
Sometimes the things that come out of my mouth are mortifying.
Natasha Lyonne
I adore Eddie Kaye Thomas and Jason Biggs. Eddie was the only one who called me when they were doing 'American Reunion' and told me, 'You need to do this.'
Natasha Lyonne
There's that special magical place that exists when you forget everything else because you are laughing hysterically. It's the only truly safe place and it can happen with a stranger or a best friend.
Natasha Lyonne
My family moved to Israel when I was eight until I was 10, and then we came back, and my parents split up. I was suddenly in a single-parent home and on scholarship. Fifth grade was such a hard year for me.
Natasha Lyonne
In my experience of living, for a time, in the underbelly of society, I spent a lot of time in various holding cells.
Natasha Lyonne
Let's face it. I'm an open book.
Natasha Lyonne
It's not easy trying to navigate your internal world in the public eye.
Natasha Lyonne
I always see the absurdity in most situations. It's my experience of how life works.
Natasha Lyonne
I'd love to go to school, but every time I try I get a movie. That's actually how I get work: I enroll. That's like my good luck charm.
Natasha Lyonne
The aging process is totally minimizing. Life in general is pretty minimizing because you have a lot of big ideas, and you have to battle the mistaken delusions and instability that come with youth.
