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
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
I think other people's depression is frightfully dreary, don't you?
Julian Fellowes
In the end, drama is successful if you care about the people.
Julian Fellowes
Leave three Englishmen in a room and they will invent a rule that prevents a fourth joining them.
Julian Fellowes
If we don't respect the past, we'll find it harder to build a future.
Julian Fellowes
What you have to understand about period drama is that it's 'history light.
Julian Fellowes

Julian Fellowes
What is a week-end? Maggie Smith in Downton Abbey.
Julian Fellowes
I always loved movies and the cinema we always used to go to see films as a family.
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
I just don't believe in generalisations.
Julian Fellowes
The movies are funny, in one way, because you think of everyone being as beautiful as the dawn, but that isn't true.
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
War makes early risers of us all.
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'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
Education. Experience. Or are they the same thing?
Julian Fellowes
Sometimes the weekend gets hijacked by work, but as my mother would say, this is the right problem.
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
