I will take the subway and look at certain women and think 'God, that woman's story will never be told. How come that lady doesn't get a movie about her?'
Natasha Lyonne -
There are epic downsides to living a somewhat public life. The upshot of that is there's nothing to hide. It's a relief in a way. There's nothing about me that can't be said.

I started wearing all black around the time I got into Nirvana. I first heard 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' when I was about 12, and I remember jumping on my bed, so excited about it.
Natasha Lyonne -
I would love to option 'Crying of Lot 49' and turn it into a movie.
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 -
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 have a pretty fancy facialist, this woman Dale Breault. Getting older, it's a good thing to have a serious facialist.
Natasha Lyonne -
I learned that if you're going to be a troublemaker, you don't want a ton of witnesses, because there's inevitable fallout from living like you're in 'Lord of the Flies.'

If I was a bajillionaire, I would spend a lot of time at Barneys just buying all kinds of great things all the time. I would have so many black cashmeres it would be out of control. I like the way nice things feel very much.
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 someone who went to acting school - I was just out of the gate, doing it.
Natasha Lyonne -
The world at large doesn't always make sense to me, and there are safe havens. Linda Manz in 'Out of the Blue' is one of them.
Natasha Lyonne -
I feel like I just have such the blood and bones of a New Yorker that I can almost imagine better, like, giving up the fight and not being able to afford the city and going out West, keeping a small place here, and then when I'm like 80, coming back here, living on the park and going to the theater.
Natasha Lyonne -
Let's face it. I'm an open book.

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 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 -
From the first instant I met her, I wanted to be Nora Ephron. I just really wanted to please her.
Natasha Lyonne -
Beauty was never really my trip. Maybe those roles are attracted to me?
Natasha Lyonne -
Anormal day looks like, you know, shower, put on the same jeans, the same tattered Gucci loafers I got at the thrift store, white socks, and my t-shirt and my very beat-up Helmut Lang blazer. I'm in the exact same outfit every day.
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 don't really feel like I need to be a teenager ever again.
Natasha Lyonne -
I have a theory that self-made, first-generation actresses don't feel entitled to success.
Natasha Lyonne -
It's not easy trying to navigate your internal world in the public eye.
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.
