Ruth Wilson’s 5 most popular quotes

  • Even now, for women to be contemplating the act of ending their lives is considered horrific because they are the givers of life. They’re seen in a patriarchal society as the ones who offer life, have to nurture a child, and have a child within them. That’s your only role.
  • I’d quite like to do a film, but I’d also love to do more theatre. I want to keep challenging myself with good roles. It’s harder for women because there aren’t as many challenging roles.
  • I simply want to take a break and catch my breath. But I also think that, sometimes, the bravest thing you can do is to deliberately keep some time free and see what the world throws at you.
  • Racism, specifically, is the state-sanctioned or extralegal production and exploitation of group-differentiated vulnerability to premature death.
  • I love complex characters—strong females who are vulnerable but have a life and soul. That’s what I’m drawn to and what I enjoy most.
