More quotes by Sally Phillips
I can make a virtue of slapdash. Slapdash can give you courage.
Sally Phillips
If you get 10,000 guys to put their ideal woman into a computer, it still comes out looking like Angelina Jolie.

The siblings of special needs children are quite special. Absolutely accepting and totally loving, from birth, someone who is different mentally, and has a different way of seeing the world, is a wonderful trait. It's a trait I wish there was another way of getting, but there isn't. And it does involve a degree of not having it fantastically easy.

All I want to do really is get married and be a matriarch.

A Local Government Stationery Store is something to behold. It's like walking through the back of a cupboard into a really dull Narnia.

One year you go in for auditions, and everybody thinks you're the queen of comedy, and the next year, you're so 'yesterday,' and it's not because you've done anything, or your ability has changed you haven't been in work because you've been putting on weight and then trying to lose it.

Sally Phillips
I start the day with the intention of doing 4,000 sit-ups but then have to work.

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
Comedians have to write to survive because you don't get cast for your beauty.
Sally Phillips
The only way I'll ever run a marathon is if I'm involved in the administration.
Sally Phillips
I have a lot of funny friends, though not everyone's funny all the time. Doon Mackichan's my funniest friend in the pub Nina Conti's the funniest with a monkey.
Sally Phillips
I never ever Google myself. That way madness lies.
Sally Phillips
The children break all my jewelry, so everything I wear is cheap - from Topshop or Dorothy Perkins.
Sally Phillips
I've got a great relationship with my dad, but I can imagine how annoying it would be if I had to move back into his house.
Sally Phillips
I'm a big fan of community, and I think independence is over-rated.
Sally Phillips
I always carry a pair of scissors around with me to cut things out of magazines.
