Julian Fellowes
What is a week-end? Maggie Smith in Downton Abbey.
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

Julian Fellowes

Julian Fellowes
I think American television changed world television in its reinvention of the series.
Julian Fellowes

Julian Fellowes
War makes early risers of us all.
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
The English country house is certainly an icon of British culture.
Julian Fellowes
I mean the truth is, I've always been interested in the whole setup of the old world.
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
Sometimes the weekend gets hijacked by work, but as my mother would say, this is the right problem.
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.
