More quotes by 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
You see, in America, it's quite standard for an actor to sign, at the beginning of a series, for five or seven years. The maximum any British agent will allow you to have over an actor is three years.
Julian Fellowes
I can be as contrary as I choose.
Julian Fellowes
Maggie Smith has a unique sense of comedy, based on a somewhat ironic view of real life, making it both funnier and more sad. But perhaps her greatest ability, or at least the one that most intrigues me, is how she can convey deep and powerful emotion without a trace of sentimentality.
Julian Fellowes
Life is a game in which the player must appear ridiculous.
Julian Fellowes
I love 'Sex and the City' I think I've seen every episode.
Julian Fellowes
The English country house is certainly an icon of British culture.
Julian Fellowes
Success means your thoughts are worthy of everyones consideration.
Julian Fellowes
People tend to view history as if it were another planet and think the modern world was invented in 1963. I don't agree.
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
I have derived enormous confidence from being a husband and father.
Julian Fellowes
If you're supposed to be a 'personality,' then you might as well have a personality.
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
I always loved movies and the cinema we always used to go to see films as a family.
Julian Fellowes
If there's one thing I don't look for in a maid, it's discretion. Except with my own secrets, of course.
Julian Fellowes
Today, people often make the American mistake of confusing acquaintances with friends. The former are there to share life's pleasures only the latter should be invited to share one's problems.
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 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
What is a week-end? Maggie Smith in Downton Abbey.
Julian Fellowes
In the end, drama is successful if you care about the people.
