More quotes by Natasha Lyonne
Sometimes the things that come out of my mouth are mortifying.
Natasha Lyonne
I have a theory that self-made, first-generation actresses don't feel entitled to success.
Natasha Lyonne
As a rule people don't think other people on drugs are funny. They think they are tragic. They have a point, but I still had the funny.
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 have a television, but it's not connected to anything. I watch everything on my computer.
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
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
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
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.
Natasha Lyonne
I'm a movie star. Can I talk to my entertainment lawyer?
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 would love to option 'Crying of Lot 49 and turn it into a movie.
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'm not someone who went to acting school - I was just out of the gate, doing it.
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
Beauty was never really my trip. Maybe those roles are attracted to me?
Natasha Lyonne
I always see the absurdity in most situations. It's my experience of how life works.
Natasha Lyonne
Remember when we didn't live in the future? When we were young, it was not the future yet.
Natasha Lyonne
It's not easy trying to navigate your internal world in the public eye.
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.
