It is true that there are few plays of Shakespeare that I haven't done.

Seriously, though, I think I never ceased to be grateful of the fact that I am able to do a job that I really love - I never got over that.

I don't really want to retire. I intend to go on working as long as I can because I still have a huge amount of energy.

I was in Yorkshire. We were a family of five and I used to be sent sometimes to get the rations for the week and was easily able to carry them back. It was like one egg and a tiny bit of tea.

I have no control over a film. I don't know what will be left on the cutting floor.

There are very few things that surprise me.

I think you should take your job seriously, but not yourself - that is the best combination.
