Caroline Munro Quotes

I was frightened of every opportunity I had. Part of me wanted the success and notoriety and part of me didn`t. Part of me is a private person, but part of me must be a show-off to be able to be in the limelight. It would be lovely -- in an ideal world -- if I could do the work and then go home and have my private life and be totally anonymous. Unfortunately, it can`t be that way.

As I get older, I`m becoming more experienced and more secure about myself and my work. Having not taken the correct route of drama school and the stage, it has been extra hard for me. I felt I didn`t have the experience and therefore I was very insecure. Now, however, I feel I have -- in a way -- paid my dues by going back to the beginning and starting again. That`s why I have been jumping at so many different projects. I feel I`ve earned the chance. I feel I can be up there with the other actors. I`m still not completely secure, but I`m much more secure than I used to be. (from a 1988 interview)
