More quotes by Judi Dench
I get sillier as I get older, so I don't know what wisdom means. I can only pass on something that I've been acquainted with and let whomever it is pick the bones out of it
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
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

Judi Dench
I would like to work with Jack Nicholson, before it's too late.
Judi Dench
In the theatre you can change things ever so slightly it's an organic thing. Whereas in film you only have that chance on the day, and you have no control over it at all.
Judi Dench
I'd rather do a part because I want to, not because great things are expected of me.
Judi Dench
Anything that we can do to improve the lives of elderly people is welcome so far as I am concerned.
Judi Dench
I don't think that care homes are all rotten old places that ought to be shut down.
Judi Dench
It is true that there are few plays of Shakespeare that I haven't done.
Judi Dench
There is no past that we can bring back by longing for it.
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.
