Francesca Annis

“I've always been more of a character actress than a star.”

“I am not a great believer in fairy tales. Every woman should have a decent income of her own.”

“I find it hard to get excited about keeping a tidy house. I'm much more interested in the literary world.”

“The great thing about getting older is that you don't lose all the other ages you've been.”

“One of the things I love about acting is that I can be a different person in every role.”

“Age is a state of mind. I'm not old, I'm just a bit more wrinkly.”

“You can't go through life not listening to music.”
