I'm far, far, far from that. But of course, that's one of the joys of acting is that you can move up in the world, even if - you know, in the characters that you're playing, even if you don't.

I like being outside and working with the elements. The elemental aspects of it. The physicality of it.

There is a kind of invisible thread between the actor and the audience, and when it's there it's stunning, and there is nothing to match that.

There was nobody in the family who had ever done anything like that before. My brothers - I had two brothers. They were twins. They both became architects. They were both six years older.

I think he [Leonardo DiCaprio] is a terrific actor. And I've - I've been rooting and voting for him since Gilbert Grape. I thought he was so amazing in that one. He was a young man, really very young boy.
Maggie Smith
Image
Little girls, I am in the business of putting old heads on young shoulders, and all my pupils are the crème de la crème. Give me a girl at an impressionable age and she is mine for life.
Maggie Smith
Image
I'm not my mother. And so I'm not raising my kids in the same way. I don't respond in the same way. We don't spend our days in the same way because I don't necessarily enjoy the same things she likes to do.

Chris and Toby are far too sane to be upset any more.
Maggie Smith
Image
I know there is something out there and like most people, I tend to believe in it more when things go bad.
Maggie Smith

I'd done Gosford Park, a film that Julian Fellowes had written that Robert Altman directed.
Maggie Smith
Image
My kids are really learning everything from scratch. It's our job to be their tour guides and camp counselors and orientation people. That's a weird responsibility, especially in a world that feels as good as it feels bad.
Maggie Smith
Image
I believe that I am past my prime. I had reckoned on my prime lasting till I was at least fifty.
Maggie Smith
Image
My career is chequered. Then I think I got pigeon-holed in humour Shakespeare is not my thing.
Maggie Smith

I think there's always great tension because there never seems to be enough - there is always pressure. There's always pressure because there isn't enough time. There's never enough time for a movie, it seems to me. Never.
