More quotes by Natasha Lyonne
There's something great about all your worst fears coming true and being said about you. There's a tremendous liberation on some level.
Natasha Lyonne
When I was a young person working, everybody was older than me, so I had to kind of keep up. I'd see every movie and listen to everything played, and read all the relevant books. Being an actor, it's kind of your job to know what came before you and how big your feelings are allowed to be.
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
You compare yourself to somebody who you think is a peer, and you can totally lose the plot, and not understand that you are nothing like them in the first place, and it was never you versus anybody.
Natasha Lyonne
The thing about curly hair is that it's a toss-up. Some days you can let it air dry and it's better than a hair-do, but some days you just look like a sloppy person. I'm really resistant to a trim. I only do it when it gets hard to brush out in the shower, then I'll submit, begrudgingly.
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 just never get into trouble. It's not my thing.
Natasha Lyonne
I definitely would rather take a nap than get angry.
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
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
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
I don't really feel like I need to be a teenager ever again.
Natasha Lyonne
Remember when we didn't live in the future? When we were young, it was not the future yet.
Natasha Lyonne
I'm a movie star. Can I talk to my entertainment lawyer?
Natasha Lyonne
I'm somebody who believes in funny things, and laughing, but I do like for them to come from a place that addresses the human condition.
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
It's a wild thing, that people have the ability to help each other by just relating to one another.
Natasha Lyonne
I'm not to be confused with Natasha Henstridge in 'Species,' where I just emerge out of the weird alien womb looking amazing. I really rely heavily on my black outfits and my gold chains to give me sort of a thing.
Natasha Lyonne
The interesting trick of comedy, in a lot of ways, is to have both the comedy and the grounding of the real thing. You get a real sense of a human being.
Natasha Lyonne
