Anne Reid Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Anne Reid:

I've a very sweet tooth. Wish I didn't.

In my day, the films you got were about mature people, people with some kind of weight.

Anne Reid

I now do my own cabaret act, singing and telling stories about my life.

Anne Reid

I did a play in Bolton - 'Billy Liar.' I turned it down at first but then thought, 'What the hell else can I do? I'm no good at anything else.'

Anne Reid

I've accepted stuff even if it's a few lines, because I think it's better to be seen.

Anne Reid

I should be in an old people's home now, counting the roses in the wallpaper. It's a good life, isn't it?

Anne Reid

You don't feel old when you get old.

Anne Reid

Camila Batmanghelidjh of Kids Company - what a wonderful woman.

Anne Reid

I don't do so much acting work now, as there aren't the parts except for 'Tango'. So if I didn't have the cabaret work, I don't know what I would be doing.

Anne Reid

Christmas Day itself hasn't always been great. My parents went abroad when I was very young, and I went to boarding school. We had a few Christmases before that - I remember a big sack of presents and Mummy cooking goose.

Anne Reid

My first big disappointment is always, why don't I look like Julie Christie? Then I realise I don't look remotely like Julie Christie, and that's always a great sadness to me. Because I used to think I might have done, at one time. And I'm too fat. And I'm too old. You always see your faults, you see.

Anne Reid

Jasmine - it brings back memories of India with my parents.

Anne Reid

I'm not homophobic. I mean, who cares? You know the state of the world, and you're only here for about 70, 80, years, so why do people worry about somebody's sex life? It's bonkers, really.

Anne Reid

I'm quite surprised I ever got married in the first place.

Anne Reid

Maybe I'll get into a Bond film... I always thought I'd be a Bond Girl when I was young.

Anne Reid

I've a very sweet tooth. Wish I didn't.

Anne Reid

My father fought in the war, and then he was posted all 'round the world with his job. So I didn't know him very well when I was young.

Anne Reid

I get very spiky if people treat me like an old lady.

Anne Reid

I don't ever think of myself as coming from a particular class because my father was working class but made his living as a newspaper foreign correspondent - someone of no fixed abode, as he used to say - who was as comfortable dining with the Mountbattens in India as he was having a pint with the boys. He was very gregarious.

Anne Reid

I'm sick of it when people start to say it: 'Aren't you amazing?' If they start to say it, I hit them.

Anne Reid

I think that the romantic suspense that you used to get between people like Ingrid Bergman and Cary Grant is much sexier than seeing people taking their clothes off and getting into bed, which is voyeurism.

Anne Reid

My father was full of tales. He said his family were ministers in the Church of Scotland, or they were lawyers.

Anne Reid

'Downton' took a long time to catch fire in America, but we have been getting good reviews for 'Tango.'

Anne Reid

I think it's such a clever idea, that you fall in love when you're 16, and then you have this fantasy about that person for the rest of your life.

Anne Reid

Wouldn't it be lovely if there were no such things as birth certificates? If I really thought I was 53, life would be much better. I'd love to blow up all the birth certificates.

Anne Reid

I'm past it now - love. I can't imagine it happening again.

Anne Reid

What I really want is an Oscar.

Anne Reid

You never know what life is going to throw at you, really, do you?
