More quotes by Julian Fellowes
I can be as contrary as I choose.
Julian Fellowes
Education. Experience. Or are they the same thing?
Julian Fellowes
I think it's always a challenge to adapt something from one medium to another - a novel into a film or a play into a movie or whatever.
Julian Fellowes
There are many nations that have perfected a particular room. You know, you have the French drawing-room, the Austrian ball room, the German dining room, and I think the library is a room the English get right.
Julian Fellowes

Julian Fellowes
The moment I was introduced to my wife, Emma, at a party I thought, here she is - and 20 minutes later I told her she ought to marry me. She thought I was as mad as a rat. She wouldn't even give me her telephone number - and she wrote in her diary: A funny little man asked me to marry him.
Julian Fellowes
Sometimes the weekend gets hijacked by work, but as my mother would say, this is the right problem.
Julian Fellowes
I think American television changed world television in its reinvention of the series.
Julian Fellowes
Success means your thoughts are worthy of everyones consideration.
Julian Fellowes
If we don't respect the past, we'll find it harder to build a future.
Julian Fellowes
Sometimes you watch one of your favorite shows from 20 years ago and you think, 'I'm loving this, but golly, it's going at the speed of a snail.'
Julian Fellowes
I'm seen as a chronicler of the class system, which I don't think is unfair.
Julian Fellowes
I think other people's depression is frightfully dreary, don't you?
Julian Fellowes
Lawyers are always confident before the verdict. It's only after that they share their doubts.
Julian Fellowes
Life is a game in which the player must appear ridiculous.
Julian Fellowes
In the end, drama is successful if you care about the people.
