Other quotes by Shirley Henderson

I spend plenty of time in London and it doesnt scare me, but its a lonely place, even if youve got friends there. My job takes me all around the world, meeting lots of interesting people. But I think if I couldnt get home, if I couldnt get back to what I consider my real life Id be frightened. – Shirley Henderson

I think when you get a wee taste of something, it maybe isnt what you thought it was. – Shirley Henderson
