Famous quotes by Maggie Smith:

"The store is Kathryn. Bright, fun and beautiful."

"It's a constant battle. We're constantly fighting it from both ends."

"I think I was just very odd."

"It's true I don't tolerate fools but then they don't tolerate me, so I am spiky. Maybe that's why I'm quite good at playing spiky elderly ladies."

"There's this wonderful first assistant and he'll be saying, 'Now Harry goes down among the dragons.' You have to hold yourself together. Because if you lose it for a second then you're sunk."

"I said 'It can't go on' and he said 'No, it can't.' Honestly, I don't think I could have mattered less to him by then. But by then, nothing mattered to him."

"The performances you have in your head are always much better than the performances on stage."

"I remember when he was diagnosed as hyper-manic asking what it meant and the doctor saying violent moods swings and indiscriminate sexual activity. And I thought 'that about covers it really'."

"I longed to be bright and most certainly never was. I was rather hopeless, I suspect."

"I like the ephemeral thing about theatre, every performance is like a ghost - it's there and then it's gone."
