They do say that the profession gets increasingly difficult, but my career seems to have been inside out.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
If it were said that I didn't fulfil my potential as a mother and wife, I'd be heartbroken. But if it were said that I hadn't fulfilled my potential as an actress, I would understand the reasons why.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
It was an extremely overdramatic play called 'Wild Decembers'. It was all about the Brontes, and they all, one after the other, died of tuberculosis. I remember taking every opportunity to cough over other people's lines.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
I've played the Greek classics; I've played the English classics. I promise you, I'm not complacent, because I hope to be playing all sorts of stuff that I've never played before while the mind - and the body - still functions.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
Mostly what you remember and enjoy are the scenes you played with people. And quite often, they're the combative scenes!
Quote by -Diana Rigg
I'm in a position to do exactly what I want. I travel quite a lot. I read prodigiously. I go to the theater, to concerts. London is a wonderful city to live in.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
Television has taught me an economy of style I didn't have before. I feel it has done me nothing but good.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
The opportunity to be bizarre - I am bizarre, aren't I? - is just so wonderful, isn't it?
Quote by -Diana Rigg
I'm an old bag for the most part on 'Game Of Thrones', so it's so lovely to be glamorous - as glamorous as you can be at my age!
Quote by -Diana Rigg
I get tetchy with myself when I forget. I also get tetchy when directors ask you for take after take after take after take for no apparent reason. I've heard Maggie Smith gets tetchy for the same reason.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
An awful lot of actors shy away from the uglier aspects of the human condition. They want to be liked, which is a cop-out. You've got to go for it.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
There were no prototypes for me - the telly was full of little blonde juveniles.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
I was very, very young, living in India. I'd been put to bed in the afternoon, and I had that lovely feeling you have when you're about to nod off. I remember the yellow curtains of the room blowing in the wind and feeling blissfully happy and content.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
I was nice and well-mannered because I was taught manners. I was very imaginative and quite adventurous. I was a tomboy, and I was always jealous that my older brother Hugh had bigger toy aeroplanes than me. I was always playing with boys' toys; I don't remember owning any dolls.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
I think you have to know someone to truly dislike them, don't you? That said, I'd shove most politicians into a cauldron and boil them up.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
Years ago I was at a function, and I must have said something really rude to Paul Daniels the magician. I can't recall what I said, but I remember him looking utterly crestfallen. I'm not that sort of person, but I must have said something very cutting and belittling. Our paths haven't crossed since, but if they had, I would have said sorry to him.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
I find the whole feminist thing very boring. They are so much on the defensive that they dare not love a man because they feel assaulted by being dependent.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
I've been in the business 60 years, and it's taken me this long to play a scene with a monkey. That's what happens if you stick around.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
You have to have the same power to lead the life you want as a man does, and that means earning the same amount of money. We still have a battle on our hands with that.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
I don't mind getting old except for the pain. I have two new knees, so going downstairs is not perfect. Nobody tells you about the pain.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
I have no way of comparing myself to other people my age; I can't compare myself with Jane Fonda, can I? I haven't had the work done. I admire the discipline of someone who maintains that degree of beauty, but I'm not prepared to do it.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
The first time Rachie and I will be working together is on an episode of 'Doctor Who' specially written for us by Mark Gatiss. How lucky is that?
Quote by -Diana Rigg
I am not aware of fans, because I don't live that sort of life, but I am awfully grateful.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
I would head to the countryside for peace and silence. That would be the best way, away from panicked, hysterical people.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
It would be nice if they didn't make me get up at 5 A.M. for a 12-hour day. My caravan is never big enough to lie down. There is no little doze. You are knackered by the time you get home. Knackered.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
Once, when I was playing a nude scene in an indifferent play in New York, a critic wrote, 'Diana Rigg is built like a brick basilica with too few flying buttresses.' Do you think that's fair?
Quote by -Diana Rigg
There are those who have a knowledge and passion for the theatre, and those who don't.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
George Lazenby was ill-equipped. It's not for nothing that they didn't offer him any sequels.
Quote by -Diana Rigg
Michael Lewis has the amazing ability to take complex formulas and concepts and turn them into page-turners.
Quote by -Adam McKay
I love to have no plans. It is amazing where your day can turn when you have no plans: meeting people or just going to a little pub on the side of the road.
Quote by -Imelda May
If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow
Quote by -Rainer Maria Rilke
Life is an accomplishment and each moment has a meaning and you must use it.
Quote by -Jeanne Moreau
