Quotes by Tom Wilkinson
It is the first time I've ever been in a dress. And it's terrible, well, it's first of all, you kind of, you look at it, and you think, who do I look like? There is a moment of recognition. And it's not quite, and it's, who do I look like? And you think, I got it after, you know, looking at a photograph of me, and I thought, it's my mother. I look like my mother.
– Tom Wilkinson
When I very first started acting, at university, I thought I could do anything. Because you are so ignorant, you don't know what a good production should be. You don't know what the rules are. And then, when you start doing it professionally, you learn the rules and become more intimidated.
– Tom Wilkinson
You've all seen these documentaries about the soldiers who have gone to war and had some terrible thing happen to them, and they come back horribly mutilated, and they are unrecognizable as the person that went. Now, what happens? Does the wife fail to recognize them? No, of course, they continue to love them and nurture them. I think, in ninety percent of cases, if it's a happy marriage.
