More quotes by Sally Hawkins
You can't be a woman and not be a feminist, I don't think. If you care about the world and the world you exist in and your rights.
Sally Hawkins
I'll try and get through as much as my voice and nerves and knees will let me.

Comedy was why I got into acting the first place. Peter Sellers was a huge influence on my wanting to act. I grew up with him and found him hysterical. The Pink Panther films were an inspiration, from my earliest childhood days, when I was watching them with my brother and my dad.
Sally Hawkins
My feet are like something from another age - prehistoric and troll-like. I keep expecting them to talk, they have that much character.
Sally Hawkins
I love disappearing. That's what acting is. For me it's about putting on a persona, stepping into a pair of shoes. It's my face, but I'm using it as a tool for that spirit, that character.
Sally Hawkins
My parents have a strong work ethic, but their attitude to life, their philosophy, is: 'whatever makes you happy.

I love acting but I also love writing, especially comedy.

I first started acting in primary school, just doing little plays. And from the moment I began, something just went 'click' inside me. Suddenly I wasn't shy anymore. Instead I felt confident and happy. I can remember the enormous sense of relief it gave me. I loved the feeling of making people laugh.

A different script calls for different things. It always takes me a long time to get to know the part, and know the logic behind the words. I have to be with the script for quite a long time before things start to fall into place, before they become part of the character.
Sally Hawkins
I don't wear bright orange clothes or leopard skin boots, but it was really good fun to play someone that does and have an excuse too!
Sally Hawkins
Different directors have different things, so when I left Mike Leigh, as it were, and I went into other projects after 'All or Nothing,' it took some getting used to - what do you mean there's a script?!?' That kind of thing.
Sally Hawkins
My knees buckled. It's the last thing I expected
Sally Hawkins
One of the things I love about acting is that I can enter into these other people's lives. But going back to being me at the end of the day is very important, too. That process of remembering who I am.
