More quotes by Sally Phillips
My mum's from Yorkshire and my parents aren't snotty or posh - they're very hard workers, both of them.
Sally Phillips
Once you have a Down's syndrome child, you can't conform. In a way, you're free.

I once had a friend who did the hair for sci-fi movies, and after a particularly bad break-up I stupidly went to her salon and told her she could do anything she liked. She dyed the bottom cherry red and the top peroxide blonde.

Sally Phillips
I'm a big fan of community, and I think independence is over-rated.
Sally Phillips

Sally Phillips
Its quite confusing being one of the less wealthy people at a posh place.
Sally Phillips
The children break all my jewelry, so everything I wear is cheap - from Topshop or Dorothy Perkins.
Sally Phillips
I don't get star-struck at all.
Sally Phillips
The only way I'll ever run a marathon is if I'm involved in the administration.
Sally Phillips
As a writer myself, my job has very often been to also write on the job. So you get the script and a vague idea of how the scene might work, and you then add funny words or change the script. I'm not the world's best writer or the world's best actor, but I can do that thing where I can fix - or ruin - fix-slash-ruin, add quirk, add value.
Sally Phillips
I tell people that I'm a Christian, but I don't think it's giving an insight into who I am or what I'm about.
