More quotes by 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.

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
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
My most treasured item is the brown leather bag that my mum bought me from a little Italian shop for my 21st. It's supposed to be a vanity bag, but I use it as a handbag.
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
I couldn't do what I do without my friends and family.
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 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
Those moments when you don't feel self-conscious, when you escape that, are when you produce something meaningful.
