The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Ashley Jensen
- As a child, I always chose a false nose and some face paint and a wig for my birthday.
- My mum Margaret was a single parent, but though life was a bit of a struggle she gave me every encouragement.
- Americans are so direct. They’d ask me, ‘What’s your five-year plan? Do you have a five-year plan?’ I don’t know what I’m having for my tea tonight let alone a five-year plan.
- I always felt slightly grubbier than most American people.
- I always felt slightly grubbier than most American people. I was never quite as groomed as everyone else, never quite as fit as anyone else. I didn’t have my protein shake and my vitamins.
- I always knew I wanted to be an actor, certainly from the age of eight or nine. I think when you know what you want to do, you’re very lucky because you’ve got a focus.
- Before I lived in America, my husband and I did a Californian road trip. We took a month, starting off in L.A. I love the landscapes of California: one moment you’re in the desert, the next you’re up in the Napa Valley or by the water in Big Bear.
- My husband is always telling me: ‘We’re on holiday – we don’t need to have an itinerary!’ But I always want to see as much as I can. Sometimes, I come back from holiday needing a holiday.
- We have a house in Umbria that we bought just before we went to America. That meant we couldn’t go there as often as we thought, but now we’re back, we’re going to start using it more. I love the light, the countryside, the language and the fact that children are accepted everywhere. The Italians get passionate about everything, too.
- I think because I did become a well-known face in my thirties and not in my twenties, I was pretty settled in my boots and I knew who I was. And I think there’s a sort of Scottish thing, too, where you don’t take yourself too seriously, and you don’t get carried away with your own sense of self-importance.
