More quotes by Judi Dench
Work certainly does help fill a void.
Judi Dench
I'd rather do a part because I want to, not because great things are expected of me.
Judi Dench
I've got what my ma had, macular degeneration, which you get when you get old.
Judi Dench
I think you should take your job seriously, but not yourself - that is the best combination.
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
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
The need for a global structure of control in the form of a world environment court is now more urgent than ever before.
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
It takes courage to recognize the real as opposed to the convenient.
Judi Dench
I don't think that care homes are all rotten old places that ought to be shut down.
Judi Dench
The only real failure is the failure to try.
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
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
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 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
The theater is the thing I love doing most.
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
It is not good to cross the bridge before you get to it.
Judi Dench
Filming is completely - was totally new to me ... I had a movie career which wasn't supposed to be, so I couldn't be more thrilled. For those who work, parts seem to get more interesting.
Judi Dench
There is no past that we can bring back by longing for it.
Judi Dench
