More quotes by Felicity Jones
I was a tomboy running around in the garden. I used to play on a local cricket team. I grew up with all boy cousins, for the most part, and my brother.
Felicity Jones
There's so much of a desire in the entertainment industry for newness, a desire to build somebody up and then treat them as old news within six months. I think you'd be naive if you didn't try to hold on to your own way of doing things.
Felicity Jones
Women want to be paid on parity with a man in a similar position.
Felicity Jones
I always had a very strong sense of independence. I really liked being able to buy my Alanis Morissette Jagged Little Pill album. I wore that as a badge of honor. I love not having to rely on anyone.
Felicity Jones
But for everyone, I think, there is always a pressure to conform, and I guess as you get older you realize it's less interesting to do that. It starts with you, though, saying, 'I know what I like doing and that's what I'm going to do.

I like Nelly's [Ternan] quiet inner strength. I thought there was something about her predicament that I found interesting - that she didn't want to be a floozy mistress, a bit on the side, that she had more self-respect than that.

Going to auditions is always so nerve-wracking. I don't think they ever get any easier.
Felicity Jones
What's amazing about the show [Girls] - the first (season) is about the girls and then the second (season) is about the boys as well. There's something so human about it.
Felicity Jones
Those moments when you don't feel self-conscious, when you escape that, are when you produce something meaningful.
Felicity Jones
Fashion choices are never arbitrary. Even if you say you don't care, that's a decision. There's something you're trying to say.
Felicity Jones
I do sort of appreciate Nelly's [Ternan] view that it would be woman who would suffer mostly from that - who would be ostracized. The rigid societal conventions meant that it was difficult to live outside of them.
Felicity Jones
I like to keep pushing myself and trying things out. I get easily bored, so I need a challenge.
Felicity Jones
I think in every character there are aspects of yourself that you bring to it. But then it would be really boring to just play yourself.
Felicity Jones
I have a great plain blue shirt from APC, and a denim one from Dolce that I wear constantly. It's hard to find the perfect denim shirt, but this is it.
Felicity Jones
I think, as an actor, you're always traveling. There's a sense of dislocation sometimes from home.
Felicity Jones
I'm a real geek. I love spending time researching a character and reading about them.
Felicity Jones
I'm not a huge jewelry fan.
Felicity Jones
It can be very intense being an actor it can be quite a small world. Then you speak to your friend who is a scientist and they have a completely different perspective.
Felicity Jones
I think that when something happens when you're growing up, like a death or divorce, it does open the world slightly because things aren't as straightforward.
Felicity Jones
A lot of my time is spent watching films and reading scripts. And it can be all-consuming. And it's obviously something I'm fortunate that is both my work and my hobby. It's what I would naturally be doing anyway.
