More quotes by 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.

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 don't need a piece of paper to suggest that I can commit myself.
Francesca Annis
Everyone has class, one class or another.

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 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
Too often, older women are seen as victims, but I know lots of formidable women who have marvellous jobs as well as a full erotic life, and children and friends and family.
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
The first thing you have to do is accept that decay sets in and there's nothing you can do about it.
Francesca Annis
Having children with someone is the real bond.
Francesca Annis
I didn't choose to be an actress
Francesca Annis
I don't regret the passing of time. I try to live in the present, which should mean my life's full.
Francesca Annis
My parents were hugely supportive like that. I was always the best - it's so embarrassing, isn't it? I was always the best at everything.
