More quotes by Natasha Lyonne
I'm not someone who went to acting school - I was just out of the gate, doing it.
Natasha Lyonne
I have a television, but it's not connected to anything. I watch everything on my computer.
Natasha Lyonne
As wild as I was, when the cops show up, and suddenly you're being handcuffed, it's so deeply shocking and terrifying, the loss of freedom.
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
I'm really enjoying growing up. I feel like so much of my life was in an existential crisis when I was young, and I don't feel as bogged down by that anymore.
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
Remember when we didn't live in the future? When we were young, it was not the future yet.
Natasha Lyonne
As a woman, I've learned that having a uniform of your staples or setting your look and saying what distinguishes you - like red lips or hair or whatever - leaves so much time for the rest of the day.
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
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.
Natasha Lyonne
I just never get into trouble. It's not my thing.
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 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
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
I don't really feel like I need to be a teenager ever again.
Natasha Lyonne
I would love to option 'Crying of Lot 49 and turn it into a movie.
Natasha Lyonne
I definitely would rather take a nap than get angry.
Natasha Lyonne
I was this kid who had been raised in New York, and now all of a sudden, my mother decided that she was a Jewish divorcee and therefore she should be living in Miami Beach.
Natasha Lyonne
I always see the absurdity in most situations. It's my experience of how life works.
Natasha Lyonne
Rather than spend so much time wondering if I'm going to get hired, or is it a problem that I've got this black-tar history, I've just got to keep doing what I'm doing and try to be decent.
