I know some actresses who used to be older than me who are now younger than me - I don't know how they do it.

There's also something of an ...

There's also something of an illusion in that, you can perhaps record a TV thing one month and complete a book the next and then be in a play. Then, if they all come out at once, it looks as if you're actually juggling a million things.

My mum taught me that redhead...

My mum taught me that redheads shouldn't wear pink, red or orange, but if you choose the right shade, such as a bright orange or a cherry red, it can look fabulous.

I think all good writing is a struggle. To write as well as you feel you can has to be a struggle, almost by definition, because you could always improve.

Jane Asher 10.08.2025 21:03:45 45 quotes

Thank God I've never had the ...

Thank God I've never had the sort of intense fame that means you can't walk up the road. That sort of blazing stardom must be difficult to cope with and maintain; my career has just bubbled along happily.

Jane Asher 10.08.2025 21:03:45 45 quotes

I've never particularly liked the idea of looking back; I'd rather look forward

I learned basic cookery from my mom, taught myself cake techniques and then got fed up with my own cakes not looking as good as the ones in the shops.

Jane Asher 10.08.2025 21:03:45 45 quotes

Having cakes as a business ce...

Having cakes as a business certainly changes things for me - I don't now sit at home doing a cake for the fun of it anymore. But it's an extremely happy and pleasureable business to run because people are generally buying cakes for celebrations.

Jane Asher 10.08.2025 21:03:45 45 quotes

I enjoy the crafts on the show enormously, too, when we have experts in showing how to make things. You watch them thinking you'll go home and do the things yourself, which is fun. Some I have done myself later on.

Jane Asher 10.08.2025 21:03:45 45 quotes

It makes me upset, if not ang...

It makes me upset, if not angry, when people assume that there can be no morality without a religious framework. If there's a moral framework without all that religious stuff, it's more valuable.

Jane Asher 10.08.2025 21:03:45 45 quotes

People ask what the secret of a happy marriage is. If there is one, it's 'don't talk about it.

Jane Asher 10.08.2025 21:03:45 45 quotes

I'm a creature of habit, so I like going to boutiques, rather than larger stores, where I know I'll find something that suits me every time.

Jane Asher 10.08.2025 21:03:45 45 quotes

I was always very determined,...

I was always very determined, as was my husband, that we wouldn't let any of our children act when they were young.

Jane Asher 10.08.2025 21:03:45 45 quotes

As a child, I wanted to marry...

As a child, I wanted to marry a farmer, but no doubt the reality would have been very different to the idyll in my head.

I learnt basic cookery by watching my mum.

Spreadable butter is wonderful for cake-making: it's much easier to cream than the block type and slightly lighter because it's blended with oil.

Jane Asher 10.08.2025 21:03:45 45 quotes

An actor's job is about putting across the author's intention; I don't think of myself on the same level as a creator.

Jane Asher 10.08.2025 21:03:45 45 quotes

Listening to my regular favourites - Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms and so on - I always feel, quite misguidedly, that nothing can be too bad if such beauty and brilliance exists in the world.

Jane Asher 10.08.2025 21:03:45 45 quotes

I try to be classic without being mumsy.

Jane Asher 10.08.2025 21:03:45 45 quotes

I'm not advocating we should ...

I'm not advocating we should all be back in the kitchen and cooking all the time, because life's too short and we've got more interesting things to do. But to rediscover the intense pleasure of making a cake and putting it down on the table is ridiculously satisfying, out of all proportion to the work.
