Julie Walters Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Julie Walters:

I was having my teens in my 30s.

It's getting better but men still earn more and there are more jobs for them. Ageism is a big thing. Parts for women disappear as you get older.

Julie Walters

I wanted above all else not to be like my mum.

Julie Walters

I remember Michael saying, 'Rich and famous? It's much better to be just rich'. I didn't quite get it to begin with. But he's right. You lose anonymity. I say to my family that you've no idea until you lose it how precious anonymity is.

Julie Walters

That's why I'm an actress - escaping into a world.

Julie Walters

I don't know if you can change things, but it's a drop in the ocean.

Julie Walters

I think comedy's something you can't learn. It's an instinct, which makes it rather elusive.

Julie Walters

It wasn't being an alcoholic - it was going wild. It happened when I got famous. It was like having my teens in my early thirties: blotting out your life, not having to think about anything.

Julie Walters

There were all us baby boomers who had a grammar school education, started to learn, then went on the pill, the whole thing, and so there are today a lot more women writers, editors, producers, and so a lot more women's stories. God, the BBC's practically run by women.

Julie Walters

Some people have a terrible stretch between family and work. It is a difficult thing to achieve.

Julie Walters

I'd like to think there'll be too much of real life going on for me to want to do much acting.

Julie Walters

I was the little, funny one. I felt I was the child among grown women.

Julie Walters

I'm too young at 50. I'm not grown up yet. There's part of everybody like that.

Julie Walters

I didn't come into the business to get awards or titles.

Julie Walters

My grandmother lived with us for a short time while I was a child. Old people tend to be slightly more eccentric - they can behave the way they want.

Julie Walters

I always loved my mother, felt loved, but she was judgmental. Her father in Ireland didn't approve of women generally, and she took on his values. She believed her own mother was foolish.

Julie Walters

The way I relax is I think, 'I haven't got anything coming up.' I like to know there are months ahead when I've got nothing.

Julie Walters

Suddenly, you are very much in the present, and you learn it's really the place where you should always live.

Julie Walters

The money isn't a lure. I've done very well out of this business.

Julie Walters

It's very strong after the birth. It's extraordinary. You can't watch anything to do with kids being harmed.

Julie Walters

Along the way I have been able to choose some themes which ask questions - not necessarily force a message on anyone, but at least invite the audience to question things: jury service, dignity in dying, Ireland - and not least because they force me to ask myself questions. Where do I stand?

Julie Walters

I never wanted to become an actress because I'd read great literature or seen great Shakespeare. It was more just wanting to understand what the people were really like, why they said all the strange things they did.

Julie Walters

In order to be creative you have to be allowed to fail.

Julie Walters

The characters do have a life of their own; it's weird.

Julie Walters

Debate is so much better than denial.

Julie Walters

I'd love to be in another film, but they haven't asked me. I think it's a shame but the prospects of me doing another one now are remote. Please do campaign on my behalf.

Julie Walters

Being a mother adds another emotional dimension, a feel for children that I didn't have before I had one. They were a pain before.

Julie Walters

My mother was born on a tiny farm in County Mayo. She was meant to stay at home and look after the farm while her brother and sister got an education. However, she came to England on a visit and never went back.

Julie Walters

I don't like being out of the crowd. It's lonely within a group.

Julie Walters

Some of the most interesting questions needing to be asked today can best be asked on television, or on stage, and they can be wonderful, great dramas, but they won't necessarily be blockbusters.

Julie Walters

Oh all the time when Victoria Wood and I did our series. There were people asking 'Can women be funny?' People still ask that. It's like asking: 'Can women breathe in and out?'

Julie Walters

It seems that when you get to a certain age you almost give yourself permission to misbehave and say what you think. People allow it, with very old people.

Julie Walters

I don't want to give up acting - it's what I am.

Julie Walters

As soon as I gave birth, it was as if you understand them. They become people, not kids. You start to identify with them. You see yourself in them.

Julie Walters

I can understand why people get annoyed at being remembered for one thing, but a lot of actors aren't remembered for anything. I don't mind that.

Julie Walters

Everyone comes up to me saying, 'Cooee, Julie! Hello!' as if I know them. Of course I don't bloody know them. Am I flummoxed by it? Sometimes. I think, 'Ooh, love, go easy.' For a time, I did feel this pressure that I had to be funny, but it passes.

Julie Walters

I couldn't watch Tom and Jerry. The cruelty was too much. I had all these strange images, of tiny animals, all mixed up.
