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.

When I was 16, nobody else talked like me. Nobody else sounded like me.

People are always casting me for what they call my 'authority.

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

I aspired to be extremely sophisticated.

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

I have a surfboard that says 'Linda Hunt Choice TV Actress: Action.' I am an action star! I don't know what that is about, but I like it.
