Emilia Fox Quotes

When I was four, we had to choose a musical instrument to play at school, and I chose the cello. I played until I was 18, and although I found it nerve-racking to play solo, I loved playing in an orchestra. When I left school I didn’t carry on with it, which I regret Picture Quote #1

I have a heart tattoo on the inside of my middle finger on my left hand Picture Quote #1

When I was growing up, I wanted to be my half-sister Lucy. She was 14 years older than me and was impossibly glamorous. I grew up in awe of her Picture Quote #1

Only out of great vulnerability do you discover what strength you have. Having a daughter who I love with all my being has helped me mine the source of that strength to previously unknown depths Picture Quote #1

I love the instantaneous nature of filming rather than the repetition of working in the theatre, but that maybe because I haven’t had great experiences working in the theatre Picture Quote #1

My parents instilled a really good work ethic from when I was little - if you want to have money to spend on holidays, you earn it. So I’ve always been someone who wanted to be able to survive by myself, but I think you have to let down the barriers a little bit - let other people in Picture Quote #1

I’m the joke of the family with cooking because I’ve never done it - primarily because I’ve been surrounded by people who are so good at it. Mum’s brilliant. Boyfriends have always been good at it. I’m waiting for my inner chef to be released Picture Quote #1

My grandmother, Angela, was the Fox family matriarch. She was magnetic but also wicked. She had this huge life force and was great fun, but she would play each member of the family off against each other, which could make for extremely dramatic Christmases Picture Quote #1

When I go into the garden, I forget everything. It’s uncomplicated in my world of gardening. It’s trial and error, really. If something doesn’t work, it comes out, and you start all over again Picture Quote #1

I’d really like to visit India and South America. I think India will be a great mix of sightseeing and relaxing, and I’ve got a feeling it will also be good for one’s soul and spirit. And I’d love to go backpacking around South America at some point. I did that in Australia when I was younger, and the camaraderie was great fun Picture Quote #1

I just get up and live my life for today - try and deal with it as it comes Picture Quote #1

I read all the Agatha Christies when I was younger and like Sherlock Holmes. Crime fiction has always fascinated me, but I’ll read anything anyone gives me Picture Quote #1

Being a mum is the best thing that has ever been given to me in my life Picture Quote #1

I didn’t realise my upbringing was unusual until my teens. As the child of two actors, I presumed that visiting film sets and being surrounded by colourful characters was normal Picture Quote #1

I’m not crazy about having lots of time to myself. Whenever I come back from filming away, I immediately want to go and see my friends and my family and re-establish my life. I can fill time when I’m alone, but I love being around other people Picture Quote #1

I was quite shy when I was younger, but I’m not one of those people who can complain of a bad childhood or any trauma. There was none in my life. I had a wonderfully happy childhood Picture Quote #1

My mother was very ill when I was 18. She had a brain operation and then a nervous breakdown. It’s very strange when you see your parents, who have always been your pillars of strength, suddenly become vulnerable. You don’t know whether to be angry that they are not strong or devastated Picture Quote #1

Older men are wiser and that is much cooler to me. I’ve never been one for going out clubbing or getting off my head, so I always gravitated to men who were similar. They just tended to be older. I think you have more of an adventure with an older man. And a happier journey Picture Quote #1

I never feel lonely if I’ve got a book - they’re like old friends. Even if you’re not reading them over and over again, you know they are there. And they’re part of your history. They sort of tell a story about your journey through life Picture Quote #1

My parents never pressured me except to advise me against acting Picture Quote #1

It was certainly a good death scene. I’m endlessly perishing in roles but it’s a wonderful thing to be asked to do Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been brought up to stand on my own two feet and not rely too heavily on everyone else around me Picture Quote #1

I suppose my life has always been about pleasing people, making sure theyre all right, doing the right thing. Then, suddenly, you have to face up to what you want and be honest about it Picture Quote #1
