Judi Dench
Everything, every part that you approach has to be somehow rooted in yourself. You have to somehow root everything so that it's not just words coming out of you.
Judi Dench
The only real failure is the failure to try.
Judi Dench
It was good to learn so early. They're not going to be kind to you. You have to do it and get on, and then gulp down and get better.
Judi Dench
