More quotes by Judi Dench
It is true that there are few plays of Shakespeare that I haven't done.
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
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 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
It takes courage to recognize the real as opposed to the convenient.
Judi Dench
Sometimes nudity is gratuitous. We just live in a society where everything goes.
Judi Dench
The only real failure is the failure to try.
Judi Dench
It is not good to cross the bridge before you get to it.
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
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
I don't think that care homes are all rotten old places that ought to be shut down.
Judi Dench
The theater is the thing I love doing most.
Judi Dench
I've got what my ma had, macular degeneration, which you get when you get old.
Judi Dench
I would like to work with Jack Nicholson, before it's too late.
Judi Dench
Children have become disengaged from nature and we need to reintroduce them to the pleasure that it brings. If we do that they will care for it. Through the simple act of planting a tree we can open their eyes to nature's beauty.
Judi Dench
Work certainly does help fill a void.
Judi Dench
The Lord Chamberlin was censoring scripts when I first came into the theater.
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
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.
