More quotes by Judi Dench
Every experience that you experience yourself you use, because that's our craft.
Judi Dench
Don't think I am going to let Bob Hoskins take all his clothes off and me not take a look? I just had a quick look up and down, like you would.
Judi Dench
I don't think that care homes are all rotten old places that ought to be shut down.
Judi Dench
I'm always fearful. … Fear generates in you a huge energy. You can use it. When I feel that mounting fear, I think, 'Oh, yes, there it is!' It's like petrol.
Judi Dench
I think you should take your job seriously, but not yourself - that is the best combination.
Judi Dench
Sometimes nudity is gratuitous. We just live in a society where everything goes.
Judi Dench
It is true that there are few plays of Shakespeare that I haven't done.
Judi Dench
I was in Yorkshire. We were a family of five and I used to be sent sometimes to get the rations for the week and was easily able to carry them back. It was like one egg and a tiny bit of tea.
Judi Dench
I think you can teach people a technique - you can teach them how to use their voices, how to breathe properly, how to move their limbs a certain way. But to actually explain how one performs comedy or drama or tragedy isn't the same as the movements one makes.
Judi Dench
The Lord Chamberlin was censoring scripts when I first came into the theater.
Judi Dench
I work out the other bits, too, but I need to know what I look like, very early on. And then it's like a template I'll fill that person out. If I get that out of the way, then I'm all right.
Judi Dench
Most things don't work out as expected, but what happens instead often turns out to be the good stuff.
Judi Dench
The more I do, the more frightened I get. But that is essential. Otherwise why would I go on doing it?
Judi Dench
Having a daughter and a grandson, I certainly could relate to the fact that this child, who you simply dote on, being taken away from you at an early age, and every single kind of emotion you would have to go through.
Judi Dench
The only real failure is the failure to try.
Judi Dench
I just feel incredibly lucky to be employed when there are so many actors and actresses who are not employed. That's why, you know, I sometimes feel desperate, in case I'm not going to be cast again.
Judi Dench
People seem to have this idea that I've always been very ambitious. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Judi Dench
There is no past that we can bring back by longing for it.
Judi Dench
I started off as a theatre designer, and by some extraordinary circumstance I saw something in Stratford-upon-Avon, and realized that that's the kind of design I want, but also that that's the kind of designer I'll never be.
Judi Dench
Some things you know about, you know what the ingredients are - maybe not all of them. But it's up to you to put in the amount. It's up to the director to nag you until you get it right.
Judi Dench
