The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Ruth Wilson
- A cat is incredibly physical, and as a performer, I’m physical. If I feel emotions, they move through my body in a way that is sensual. I’m not necessarily in control of that.
- There’s always been a religious strain in me. I can’t get rid of it. I don’t want to get rid of it. I’m not involved in a church, but I understand that impulse to believe in something that’s never going to betray you.
- Cats don’t need you that much. They like to come and get stroked now and then, and they need you to feed them. But other than that, they’re not very demanding, are they? I quite like that.
- People know my characters like Alice Morgan in ‘Luther’ or Alison Bailey from ‘The Affair.’ For me, that’s a compliment, a kind of joy.
- The only ultimate power you have as a human being is over your choice to live or die. Everything else is chaos. If you try and think you have control over some of your life, essentially, that’s the only real control you have, is whether you decide to exist.
- I don’t know about writing. It’s quite lonely. You have to have a lot of patience with yourself. I don’t know if I could do that. But I’d love to direct again.
- There’s such a huge link with fashion, with front covers of magazines and selling products, but that’s not what you go into the job for, and yet you’re persuaded that’s what you have to do to create the opportunities for yourself.
- I come from the south, so you’re useless, and you’re a bit pathetic. That’s the first thing that the northerners think of you. You’re also from the city, so you are used to having your cappuccinos and your luxuries and getting your chicken from a plastic packet.
- I always vaguely knew I wanted to perform, but I haven’t got the greatest singing voice and my dancing isn’t up to scratch. Acting was really the only alternative. My parents have been really supportive throughout.
- My remit has always been: I want to do something different from the last thing I’ve done.
