Olivia Colman’s 5 most popular quotes
- If the script’s good, everything you need is in there. I just try and feel it, and do it honestly.
- If I didn’t have children I might be more of a lush than I am. I like booze. I struggle with smoking. And I’m a big swearer. I’m trying to rein it in but I do think it’s a nice seasoning of language.
- The first time I did a school play was the first time I felt I was good at anything at all. I just loved it.
- I feel fortunate that I’m not a beauty. I’m not a classic beauty. I feel it is harder for girls who are like that. There are fewer parts.
- I love my job and I know I am very lucky but still, if you audition and you don’t get it, it still affects you.
