More quotes by Helen Mirren

Image
I've been working every year since I started acting, and I got many awards before I won the Oscar for 'The Queen.'
Helen Mirren
Image
As you get older naked stuff [on film] gets easier. It's more to do with the role than what men in the audience think. There's a liberation about it.
Helen Mirren
Image
I prefer the finesse of French humour. English humour is more scathing, more cruel, as illustrated by Monty Python and Little Britain.
Helen Mirren
Image
People often ask me whether I prefer theater or film, and the answer is that I prefer the one I'm not doing: The grass is always greener.
Helen Mirren
Image
I think we all have a dream of what it would be like not to work and grow heirloom tomatoes, and I do have that dream, it would be lovely. I do love gardening and all of that, but I do love my work.
Helen Mirren
Image
I can't help being Christian because I was brought up in Britain, and the morality of Christianity is part of the fabric of this country.
Helen Mirren
Image
I have no maternal instinct whatsoever. Motherhood holds no interest for me.
Helen Mirren
Image
I am British. I love Britain for all its faults and all its virtues. My husband is American and I am largely based in Los Angeles, but whenever someone asks me where home is, I automatically say 'London.'

Any role that's proactive is a great role, and action roles are by their very nature proactive. You get to do stuff. I hate sitting in a corner - I'd much prefer an action role in a popcorn movie rather than pining in a corner not doing anything.
Helen Mirren
Image
I believe that if you want to go make your mark on the world you've got to go out and do it. Don't be shy, be adventurous.
Helen Mirren
Image
I don't think it's good to try and change anyone. The trick and the mystery - of relationships and life in general - is to learn to live with the bits you don't like.
Helen Mirren
Image
I love photography and I love the art of photography. So when I'm working with high-level art photographers, I give them artistic freedom because I want that for myself when it's my turn to do my work and I never try and control it or say I'll only do this or I want it like that.
Helen Mirren
Image
When you're young and beautiful, you're paranoid and miserable.
Helen Mirren
Image
I was never that kind of star. I was never cast because I was gorgeous.
Helen Mirren
Image
Humor in a relationship is so important. Many women will say that. Some say, 'If they can make you laugh, it's the sexiest thing on earth.'
Helen Mirren
Image
I'm not strong-willed actually. I'm a complete pushover. I love to be told what to do.
Helen Mirren
Image
I loathe, I hate, chick flicks.
Helen Mirren
Image
I'm terrified of learning lines, and I've always been terrified that I won't learn them.

[Washington is a] very gossipy little village of people all going to the same bars . . . all watching each other having affairs with each other

Words can be used for venal purposes. Words are incredible sources of propaganda and can cause terrible havoc.
