More quotes by Julian Fellowes
I have derived enormous confidence from being a husband and father.
Julian Fellowes
In the end, drama is successful if you care about the people.
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
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
If you're supposed to be a 'personality,' then you might as well have a personality.
Julian Fellowes
Success means your thoughts are worthy of everyones consideration.
Julian Fellowes
I just don't believe in generalisations.
Julian Fellowes
I think I have a very detailed sense of observation. I am interested in the details of people's lives and what information these details give.
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
A lot of actors find it impossible not to ask for the audience's sympathy. They have a need to twinkle.
Julian Fellowes
War makes early risers of us all.
Julian Fellowes
Nothing is harder to dramatize than happiness.
Julian Fellowes
No, while most people have been at their unhappiest when in love, it is nevertheless the state the human being yearns for above all.
Julian Fellowes
I mean the truth is, I've always been interested in the whole setup of the old world.
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
If we don't respect the past, we'll find it harder to build a future.
Julian Fellowes
I always loved movies and the cinema we always used to go to see films as a family.
Julian Fellowes
Sometimes the weekend gets hijacked by work, but as my mother would say, this is the right problem.
Julian Fellowes
Education. Experience. Or are they the same thing?
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
