There’s a sense most notably with my movies that for people to turn up, and make them big, you have to have a celebrity status. But it’s not a choice I’ve made. It comes to you. Ruth Wilson Read Quote
Judgment comes from you comparing yourself to other people, and expectations of what you think life should be. Ruth Wilson Read Quote
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. Ruth Wilson Read Quote
I think I’m a bit of a loner, and actually quite enjoy alone time; friends become people you want to actually spend time with rather than people who are just in your life. I think it’s a nice place to be. Ruth Wilson Read Quote
I’ve always been very vocal, but there have been moments where I’ve found it difficult to negotiate things that are about gender. Ruth Wilson Read Quote
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. Ruth Wilson Read Quote
I’ve got friends who are so good at getting away with things, like going up to the desk to get upgraded on a plane, for example. I haven’t got any of that kind of confidence in those situations. I look so awkward. I act awkward. I’m really apologetic. Ruth Wilson Read Quote
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. Ruth Wilson Read Quote
I love meeting people and analysing their world. I like having a puzzle to solve. That’s why I do so much work in advance. Even if it doesn’t affect my performance in the end, I just find it so much more interesting if I’ve got as wide as possible an understanding of the material. Ruth Wilson Read Quote
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. Ruth Wilson Read Quote
