More quotes by Francesca Annis
The minute anyone's getting anxious I say, You must eat and you must sleep. They're the two vital elements for a healthy life.
Francesca Annis
Thank God we're not like America. Everyone wants to look like they're 20. In Europe we admire grown-up women I think men revere older women.
Francesca Annis
I'm trying to learn to smoke, which is rather weird when everyone is trying to stop. I'm not a smoker. But my character only smokes as an affectation.
Francesca Annis
I was seen dancing at school by a director, who asked me to be in a TV play. And it had a huge impact. So I think thats what really started me off.
Francesca Annis
I don't really have an image of myself. Now, is that true? Well, maybe I do and it's different, which is why I get shocked when I see how other people experience me. I see myself primarily in a domestic setting.
Francesca Annis
I can feel the 60S looming. In my profession, I've just moved along with my age. By thinking in decades, rather than whether someone's 42 or 47, you can give yourself a whole 10 years to turn yourself around in.
Francesca Annis
I am not a fanatic about anything. I do what I can do when I've got the time.

I was asked to be in Vogue but I said no. I didn't want to advertise make-up. I didn't want to be seen as a sex symbol.
Francesca Annis
I do think it's important to live in the present because in that way you won't be living in a state of regret.
Francesca Annis

Francesca Annis
I don't believe in expending energy on something you can't do anything about. If there was some easy way of fixing things, I'd probably do it.
Francesca Annis
Judi Dench and Ian McKellen taught me how to work hard and respect the theatre.
Francesca Annis
I’m the same weight now as I’ve always been-even before having children-but I have to say there’s been a redistribution of the flesh!
Francesca Annis
When I was starting out, young actresses had the studio system to protect them. Now you have a host of sharks, from your agent to your publicist to your lawyer.
Francesca Annis
I don't buy the tabloids, but you're surrounded by it all and people tell you things they've read. I'd be sitting on a train looking over someone's shoulder and thinking: That's familiar... oh my God, it's me.
Francesca Annis
I never pursued being 'famous.'
Francesca Annis
I was always going to be a dancer - I drifted into acting.
Francesca Annis
I'll dance to anything: Bob Marley or rap.
Francesca Annis
I don't need a piece of paper to suggest that I can commit myself.
Francesca Annis
I think people have surgery for psychological reasons more than because of their looks.
