The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Michelle Dockery
- ‘Expect nothing and hope for the best’ is my mantra. A drama teacher called Joseph Blatchley told me that, and it’s the best advice I’ve had. If you keep an open mind and don’t expect too much, then you won’t be disappointed.
- I’m not on Twitter, but I am on Instagram and follow Lena Dunham and Usher.
- The journey matters as much as the destination. By engaging in the moment on set, I’ve stopped rushing and now find pleasure in the collaborative process – the characters, the costumes – rather than worrying about the finished product.
- I wasn’t an academic. I hated maths and science at school. I couldn’t concentrate.
- I just want a really varied career, and just to keep going, really.
- I had dance training from a very young age, 3 or 4… It taught me how to present myself, about preparation and working in an ensemble, and it’s something that carries with me to this day.
- I really enjoy singing, it’s entirely different to acting because I’m just being myself.
- ‘Downton Abbey’ has become this huge thing, and I really enjoy the success of it, but I sometimes find myself on the outside looking in, which is sort of a healthy way to look at it so you don’t get too caught up in it.
- I come from a very working-class background, so my family would have been downstairs in the past, as opposed to upstairs. People are often quite surprised to hear that, that I’m not actually posh.
- I think some period drama can be quite alienating, but ‘Downton’ isn’t. This is going to sound quite, um, pretentious, but someone said that it’s like a soap written by a poet.
