    Juliet Stevenson

    Read through the most famous quotes from Juliet Stevenson




    I sometimes think that theatre is a torture. ↗


    — Juliet Stevenson

    #sometimes #theatre #think #torture

    I wanted to be the conduit for somebody else's experiences, filtered through me, and passed on to other people. Which is the job description, really. ↗


    — Juliet Stevenson

    #description #else #experiences #filtered #i

    I wouldn't even begin to presume that the talent of an able actor is anything like the talents of a prodigious musician. ↗


    — Juliet Stevenson

    I'd rather be useful than rich. It's more essential to feel you're doing something that's worth doing, rather than making a lot of money. ↗


    — Juliet Stevenson

    I'm hardly Hollywood material - they're interested in youth and perfection and I lay no claims to either. It's not a place that's particularly interested in talent. ↗


    — Juliet Stevenson

    If I could have any artist's work on my sitting room wall it would probably be by Van Gogh or Picasso. ↗


    — Juliet Stevenson

    In our own, theatre can be the place where we come together, reaching with and through stories, to who we are and to who we can be. ↗


    — Juliet Stevenson

    #our #own #place #reaching #stories

    In the garden of our house, when I was three. My brothers and I had a jumping wall. I remember it as enormously high, but it was probably only about a foot and a half. ↗


    — Juliet Stevenson

    It is intensely frustrating. The longer you live, the more interesting life gets, and yet many of the parts involve carrying trays and putting lamb chops down in front of the leading man. ↗


    — Juliet Stevenson

    #chops #down #front #frustrating #gets

    Sometimes I think it'd be fun to do a completely different job for a while. You've got one life and you do the same job for the whole of it, and you think - was that a good use of a life? ↗


    — Juliet Stevenson
