I have never met a woman who works who doesn't feel guilty. I mean we all deny it like crazy but deep down there is always that voice saying you should be at home.
Kristin Scott Thomas
If you make a film about a pig farmer in Wales and you are a huge hit as the pig farmer's wife, the next thing is you'll be asked to do a film about a sheep farmer in Scotland.
Kristin Scott Thomas
We all come in different shapes and sizes, and that's fine by me.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I mean my father was killed when I was six. And I only have tiny, tiny flashes of memory.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I'm a bit of a Doubting Thomas - always worrying about things.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I'm very good at forgetting people.
