Hamish Linklater

Quotes

Hamish Linklater

  • I did try to go to college and try to be an English major.
  • I've never seen anyone handling pans in the streets of New York, and if I did I doubt I'd give them money, unless I needed a pan. I do give money to homeless people, whether they ask or no.
  • I invested all my money in debt.
  • It was an outdoor Shakespeare theater that I grew up at. That feels like home, and the place I'm always trying to figure out how to get to.
  • I'm a pretty cliché actor in that I hate watching myself on film.
  • When you're making a pilot, what you're mostly thinking is, 'Please let this be a real job, please.'
  • In my ideal world there would be 99% unemployment for actors, and I would be the 1% that's employed. I hear about somebody getting a job at Starbucks and I get jealous.
  • You want to throw yourself in as many uncomfortable places as possible, if you want to build muscles in uncomfortable parts of your body and grow as an artist.
