To be somebody you must last.

Anything that begins ‘I don’t know how to tell you this’ is never good news.

When you finally learn how to do it, you’re too old for the good parts.

So easy to fall into a rut, isn’t it? Why should ruts be so comfortable and so unpopular?

If you’re thinking of becoming a critic, why not make other plans?

Acting is the use of human experience with talent added...

I never got a job I didn’t create for myself.

Pan me, don’t give me the part, publish everybody’s book but this one and I will still make it!

Live long enough and you’ll come into pensions, a lovely thing. Presents every month from people you didn’t know cared.
