More quotes by Julian Fellowes
What's difficult for American audiences is that they're used to a system here where you can get an actor for five years or even seven, and that is signed for at the audition. Whereas in England, no agent will give you an actor for more than three years.
Julian Fellowes
Plenty of friendships are sustainable through dinners and lunches, but will not stand a week away. So be careful with whom you go on holiday.
Julian Fellowes
Sometimes the weekend gets hijacked by work, but as my mother would say, this is the right problem.

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
I can be as contrary as I choose.
Julian Fellowes
Lawyers are always confident before the verdict. It's only after that they share their doubts.
Julian Fellowes
School visits are something I do fairly often: I always say to the students that somebody has got to end up with the interesting careers, so why not them?
Julian Fellowes
Success means your thoughts are worthy of everyones consideration.
Julian Fellowes
A lot of actors find it impossible not to ask for the audience's sympathy. They have a need to twinkle.
Julian Fellowes
We live a life that is often spent in crowds - parties, festivals and first nights - so it's nice to avoid them.
Julian Fellowes
What you have to understand about period drama is that it's 'history light.
Julian Fellowes
Sometimes it is quite surprising, the emotional intensity of it. I was in NY one day, in Barnes and Noble, and I could see this woman following me around and after a bit I stopped and said 'Hello' and she just looked at me and said: “PLEASE LET EDITH BE HAPPY!”
Julian Fellowes
I think Americans are wonderful film actors - the best in the world - but they are a very contemporary race and they look forward all the time.
