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.
Linda Hunt
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.
Linda Hunt
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.
Linda Hunt
When I was 16, nobody else talked like me. Nobody else sounded like me.
Linda Hunt
What's it like being opposite Arnold Schwarzenegger? For me? Are you kidding? Maybe if I'm lucky, come up to his navel!
Linda Hunt
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.
Linda Hunt
For a while, I thought, maybe I should direct, until I got to New York and saw the stupidity of that idea. If it's hard to get into acting, what is it like for a woman to become a director?
Linda Hunt
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.
Linda Hunt
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.
Linda Hunt
I aspired to be extremely sophisticated.
Linda Hunt
People are always casting me for what they call my 'authority.'
Linda Hunt
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.
