Susan Tyrrell Quotes

I have the ambition of a slug. I work when I need money, which is about once a year.

The last thing my mother said to me was, `SuSu, your life is a celebration of everything that is cheap and tawdry.` I`ve always liked that, and I`ve always tried to live up to it.

Such people should be collected, should be swept up immediately and kept in a box of broken people. I`ve collected people my whole life. Sometimes it ends badly, but it`s absolutely never on my part. Because I know how fabulous I am. You`re just going to have to take my word for it - I`m an incredible person. I do good deeds, and I love people, but the only way I can do these things is to stay apart. Because you can just stand so much. But the people who you meet in your life, who cross your path, the ones who are decent, should be collected.

I only give line readings. I love line readings - they just all have to be buried. That`s my style of acting. Buried line readings. Buried overacting.
