I want any excuse to come home. My dad is not a spring chicken any more. If anyone says, Go buy a postage stamp in London, Ill go and do it. – Emily Mortimer
Im physically completely mal-coordinated. My best friend used to make me run for the bus just to give herself a quick, cheap laugh because I definitely dont have that sophisticated cool thing down. – Emily Mortimer
My dad had this philosophy that if you tell children theyre beautiful and wonderful then they believe it, and they will be. So I never thought I was unattractive. But I was never one of the girls at school who had lots of boyfriends. – Emily Mortimer
I was terribly shy when I was growing up, I really wasnt confident with other people and I think I was always afraid of up or not being this very cool, amazing person that I wanted to be. – Emily Mortimer
I feel connected to the Second World War because my father lost his father in that war. So, through my dad and the effect it had on him of losing his father young, I always felt connected to the war. It goes back years, but it still feels to me as if were completely living in it. – Tom Hooper
