Judi Dench
I'd rather do a part because I want to, not because great things are expected of me.
Judi Dench
Most things don't work out as expected, but what happens instead often turns out to be the good stuff.
Judi Dench
I have a completely new knee. It's brilliant. I am not feeling my age at all. I feel about 43, a willowy blonde 43 years old with long legs.
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
I think you should take your job seriously, but not yourself - that is the best combination.
Judi Dench
I would like to work with Jack Nicholson, before it's too late.
