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.

More quotes by Felicity Jones
When you're believing in the person that you're playing, you feel protected. It's about being true to that person you're playing.
Felicity Jones
Now younger actresses will have a confidence in those discussions with their agents and be able to say, Can we make sure that I'm being paid the right amount for the work that I'm doing?
Felicity Jones
I cry at the end of every episode of Girls. I'm just so overwhelmed by the truthfulness with which [Lena Dunham] conveys human nature.
Felicity Jones
I don't have much time for shopping so I pick things up when I can. My favorite labels are APC, Isabel Marant and Agnes B because the clothes are cut small and have a simplicity to them.
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
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
Now we live in a time where the public and the private are completely fused and there isn't such a great distinction. We know our private lives are constantly made public. With Facebook and Twitter there isn't such a desire, it feels, to keep things private.
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
I'm keen to have balance, as much as possible. I put every ounce of myself into my work, but also it's important that I don't miss every single wedding of my best friends. I couldn't do what I do without my friends and family.
Felicity Jones
I always wear the shoes of the character a week before going on set the idea of just putting on a new pair of shoes on the first day of filming is just horrific.
Felicity Jones
I think Nelly [Ternan] actually has something very conservative about her, and she's very judgmental of (this other character's) situation, and can see that's about to happen to herself. So she judges it even more harshly [because] it's what she fears becoming.
Felicity Jones
Always, my mother said, Be yourself. That is sometimes the hardest thing to do. I try to always remember that and come back to that and have strength in who you are. There is only one you.
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
[In The Invisible Woman] was a different type of performance which was less driven by improv. You always want moments of freshness and newness, but there was less so than I've done before.
Felicity Jones
It was lucky that Ralph [Fiennes] is someone who understands both film and theater and we were able to understand that scene so well before we took it to the set.
Felicity Jones
The key is working with great directors. A film is so many different people and all their talents, but particularly the directors, because of the idiosyncrasies of that person.
Felicity Jones
You have to be brave and not always play likeable people. It's difficult, because there's a demand for the hero or heroine to be very likeable.
Felicity Jones
I couldn't do what I do without my friends and family.
Felicity Jones
The American vice would be sometimes speaking too loudly. You can always hear American people on the trains!
Felicity Jones
I want to be paid fairly for the work that I'm doing. That's what every single woman around the world wants.
Felicity Jones
