More quotes by Agyness Deyn
I can't do modeling disconnected. And I thought, What do I like? What do I love about modeling? And what I love is that it's such a creative process, with a bunch of people, and I wanted that more, which is how the acting thing came about.
Agyness Deyn
I know I'm no Whitney Houston.
Agyness Deyn
For modelling, you have to be such a strong person in a way – or seen to be a strong person, do you know what I mean? But in acting you have to get in touch with all the vulnerability that you carry.
Agyness Deyn
It will appeal to girls who are confident and have a strong personal expression of style and identity in the way that they dress and what this says about themselves.
Agyness Deyn
For me, being onstage for an hour and a half, my confidence was really huge for me. Doing eight shows a week for a run, I was like: I'm actually doing this. And now I feel more confident going into something.
Agyness Deyn
I wish it were different, but my body clock wakes me up between 6:30 and 7:30 a.m. I was even talking yesterday about how, if I want to get enough sleep, I have to be in bed at 10. That means I'm totally a grandma.

I dont have that many friends.

Everything about acting drives me and gives me the need to really try it. It's an evolution - doing the same thing for 12 years is kind of a chunk. Anyone would be up for a little bit of a change. It is so rewarding to do a movie, and so enjoyable. It's hard work, but really wonderful.

I've never had formal drama-school training I've just picked things up as I've gone along.
Agyness Deyn
I suppose each project is a new thing, so there's all this excitement and nerves about this new thing. Every single thing is like a new thing, so it's never what I expect. I don't know what to expect for the next thing. There are always different people. It's interesting.
Agyness Deyn
I'd like a relationship that was like two tree trunks side by side, strong but independent.
Agyness Deyn
Well, I suppose I've never really had a lifestyle that needs upkeep. I don't get cabs I'm on the Tube with my Oyster card.
Agyness Deyn
I dress like a tomboy.
Agyness Deyn
You know, even though I'm in fashion, I don't, like, do fashion. Fashion isn't me, even though I work in it. It's just materialistic stuff. I just want to do whatever makes me happy...Like being totally conscious. Laughing is, like, my favorite thing to do. Being with friends, having fun...being a bit daft.
Agyness Deyn
I don't really go to fashion parties they're not my scene.
Agyness Deyn
To be supportive of myself, I have to go with what I want to do. I started acting and I was so mesmerized.
Agyness Deyn
I've always been really private about my personal life. I don't talk about it.
Agyness Deyn
It is so inspiring when you come across a woman who is very strong and dedicated and is amazing at what they do. That's how I feel about Meryl Streep. You watch her, and you can't help but notice all of that about her. She's so influential.
Agyness Deyn
I suppose I have stopped modeling officially. I've not done any for a good long while now. I think it was four years ago when my feelings were changing towards the industry. I didn't hate it, but I was yearning to do something different. I was on a gradient. It was a gradual thing.
Agyness Deyn
I want to play positive role models - women who mean something to other women.
