Helen Mirren World Quotations

The role of women has always been undervalued in the spy world, always undermined in terms of recognition. Unfairly so. It's a world that needs women.

Wherever I am in the world, if I get free time when I'm filming I always hire a car, take to the road, drive for miles and explore.

Hollywood is a very small world; the people who matter matter, and the people who don't matter are just like nothing.

I became an actress because I discovered the world of the imagination when I was about 14 or so and the concept that you could engage in this amazing world of storytelling. I saw a production of Hamlet, and I didn't know Hamlet died in the end.

I believe that if you want to go make your mark on the world you've got to go out and do it. Don't be shy, be adventurous.
