"You know when someone’s over-flattering you in a way. You smile but you can’t believe it." ― Laura Linney Topic(s): Politics More From Laura Linney "I get cold – really cold – when I travel." "Doing the right thing has power." "I love 70’s music." More In Politics "I might be writing what people expect me to write, writing from that place where I might be ruled by economic considerations. To overcome that, I started working with my dreams, because I’m not so censored when I use dream material."― Kathy Acker "If acknowledging that racial misgivings and misunderstandings are still a part of politics and life in America, I plead guilty."― Ron Fournier "The term ‘the American Left’ is as near to being meaningless or nonsensical as any term could really be in politics. It isn’t really a force in politics anymore. And it would do well to ask itself why that is."― Christopher Hitchens
