Linda Hunt Quotes

I aspired to be extremely sophisticated Picture Quote #1

It really hit home that my parents felt as though they didn’t have to worry anymore. They realized if you could win an Oscar, that was a good sign Picture Quote #1

What’s it like being opposite Arnold Schwarzenegger? For me? Are you kidding? Maybe if I’m lucky, come up to his navel! Picture Quote #1

For me to want to be an actor was an improbable idea. I wasn’t beautiful or pretty in any conventional way. I wasn’t an ingenue at 22. But I was always certain of it and certain of its power. I felt the power when I went to the theater at 9, 10, 12 and 14 Picture Quote #1

I think people have always liked in me the combination of being the underdog because I’m a tiny woman but I have enormous authority in myself Picture Quote #1

When I was 16, nobody else talked like me. Nobody else sounded like me Picture Quote #1

When I was growing up, particularly during puberty in my teen years, I was so miserable because I elicited so much teasing and meanness from my teenage cohorts Picture Quote #1

I can’t be a man. But I can embrace the head of a man, the intelligence of a man, the spirit of a man Picture Quote #1

I was always trying to make up for my size, to compensate. So to get people to take you seriously, you have to come at things with a great deal of strength. You have to emphasize that the way you are is unusual. That you don’t come along every day Picture Quote #1

The world is what you make of it, friend. If it doesn’t fit, you make alterations Picture Quote #1

I was a very determined kid. I couldn’t imagine any other life for myself. This happens to kids who are different in any way. How am I going to make a life? Who am I going to be when I grow up? Will there be a place for me in the world? Acting gave me a sense of purpose, but it also gave me a sense that I would survive, that I would find my place Picture Quote #1

Everybody either wanted to take care of me or push me around, you know? I was teased a lot, sure I was, of course. Fourth grade, fifth grade, sixth grade, everybody was taking their spurts except me. I was not growing up Picture Quote #1
