Anna Friel

“There's nothing I like more than a good cry. It's very cathartic.”

“I'm a real homebody. I love being at home, I love being with my family. I love my garden.”

“I am a bit of a chameleon, I think. I'm not one of those people who has a persona.”

“I have a healthy respect for TV. It's a great medium, and it's where a lot of the best writing is right now.”

“I think you should take your job seriously, but not yourself - that is the best combination.”

“I'm not a planner. I'm a liver. I live in the moment.”

“I don't think you should ever be afraid of doing what you love.”

“As an actress, you're always looking for the next thing. You've got to be hungry.”

“I'm a workaholic. I've been a workaholic since I was 13.”

“I've always looked for challenges. I'm not a person who is easily satisfied.”

“The stage is where I feel most at home.”
