More quotes by Helen Mirren
You could build three hospitals with the cost of one film and I take that very seriously.
Helen Mirren
It's great to be queen!
Helen Mirren
I met with Hitchcock when I was a very, very young actress just starting out and he was making 'Frenzy' in London and I was sent along to meet with him. He was very, very unimpressed with me and I have to say, I was rather unimpressed with him - but only because I was an arrogant, ignorant young actress.
Helen Mirren
I'd like to see a much more open Monarchy, myself. I used to think they were completely useless and we should get rid of them. I don't necessarily feel that way anymore. I'm still ambivalent, I still loathe the British class system, and the Royal family are the apex of the British class system.
Helen Mirren
Ill-informed intuition is fantastic - it's what great art is. So really old painters or writers or actors are brilliant, because they've finally reached the point when they can let go of al technique.
Helen Mirren
It has nothing to do with clothing or makeup. Just put your shoulders back and chin up, and face the world with pride.
Helen Mirren
Hollywood is a very small world the people who matter matter, and the people who don't matter are just like nothing.
Helen Mirren
I'm not a communist, of course. But I do think that everything is down to economics. Capitalism doesn't change.
Helen Mirren
A woman with knowledge is something that frightens the status quo quite a lot.
Helen Mirren
You know, you have to allow life to play itself out, don't you? And one thing you learn is that it doesn't stop. It moves on.
Helen Mirren
I'm a naturist at heart. I love being on beaches where everyone is naked. Ugly young people, beautiful old people, whatever. It's so unsexual and so liberating.
Helen Mirren
I was part of the first generation of girls and women to be educated and go to grammar school even if we didn't have much money. Then that generation went, 'OK, great', and went into medicine or the police, and hit this wall of discrimination from older men who hadn't caught up.
Helen Mirren
The whole thing of clothes is insane. You can spend a dollar on a jacket in a thrift store. And you can spend a thousand dollars on a jacket in a shop. And if you saw those two jackets walking down the street, you probably wouldn't know which was which.
Helen Mirren
My parents believed in education and economic security, and I thank them for it. Because I think that's part of what's made my life stable. It was instilled in me. You have to be able to pay your bills. You do not get into debt. And I never have been.
Helen Mirren
I think the war movie genre is a very important genre in film. Film gives you a visceral experience of something that you would never otherwise experience. To give the audience a real feeling of what maybe a certain kind of warfare would be like I thought was great.
Helen Mirren
The important thing is to bring people with Parkinson's into our world and for the public to have a real understanding of it, as they've beginning to have with autism.
Helen Mirren
Patience can be a good thing - but not necessarily. Sometimes it's not so bad to be impatient. I'm a little bit too polite.
Helen Mirren
I'm terrified of learning lines, and I've always been terrified that I won't learn them.
Helen Mirren
When you're young, you wonder what all these old people are droning on about, trying to impart their wisdom. It's not relevant to you because being young is such a specific thing. Thank God for that. Thank God for the young people who go out and demonstrate against rampant capitalism or whatever.
Helen Mirren
I don't know who I am. But I do know who I'm not. I have occasionally tried playing people I'm definitely not, and that wasn't a very pleasant experience.
