• Y realmente no importa si estamos debajo de nuestros pupitres con las manos sobre la cabeza o no, ¿verdad? No, dijo la Sra. Baker. Realmente no importa. Entonces, ¿por qué estamos practicando? Se quedó pensativa un momento. Porque nos reconforta, dijo. A la gente le gusta pensar que si está preparada nada malo puede ocurrir. Y quizá practicamos porque sentimos que no hay nada más que podamos hacer, porque a veces parece que la vida se rige por las hondas y flechas de la escandalosa fortuna.

• I handed the test in five minutes before the end of the day. Mrs. Baker took it calmly, then reached into her bottom drawer for an enormous red pen with a wide felt tip. "Stand here and we'll see how you've done," she said, which is sort of like a dentist handing you a mirror and saying, "Sit here and watch while I drill a hole in your tooth.

• Because I've done a lot of television, I'm sort of a generalist. I'm not a pastry cook, but I've had to learn a certain amount about it. I'm not a baker, though I've had to learn how to do it. I'm sort of a general cook.

• What it comes down to is this: the grocer, the butcher, the baker, the merchant, the landlord, the druggist, the liquor dealer, the policeman, the doctor, the city father and the politician -- these are the people who make money out of prostitution, these are the real reapers of the wages of sin.

• ¿Por qué todos los empleados y marineros de los trenes parecen tan tristes y cansados, tan tristes y cansados? Yo os lo diré. Es porque saben que el tren va bien. Es porque saben que llegarán a cualquier lugar para el que hayan sacado un billete. Es porque después de haber pasado Sloane Square saben que la próxima estación debe ser Victoria, y nada más que Victoria. ¡Oh, su salvaje éxtasis! ¡Oh, sus ojos como estrellas y sus almas de nuevo en el Edén, si la próxima estación fuera inexplicablemente Baker Street!

• The first thing Julian wanted to do in life, well, before he wanted to be an artist and then a musician, was to be a chef. He'd come home and say 'Why don't you bake cakes like my friends' mothers?' I'd say, 'Oh, Julian, go out and buy a Mary Baker cake mix and do it yourself!' That started him off! By the time he was 13, he'd disappear into the kitchen whenever we had visitors and emerge with beautiful canapes. Now he thinks nothing of cooking for ten or 15 people, and he does it so calmly.

• El ladrón que está en la cárcel no es necesariamente más deshonesto que sus congéneres en libertad, sino sobre todo uno que, por ignorancia o estupidez [¡o racismo o pobreza! - Draffan] roba de una manera que no es la habitual. Roba una hogaza del mostrador del panadero y es inmediatamente encarcelado. Otro hombre arrebata el pan de la mesa de cientos de viudas y huérfanos y almas crédulas similares que no conocen las costumbres de los promotores de empresas; y, con toda probabilidad, es llevado al Parlamento.

• No es de la benevolencia del carnicero, del cervecero o del panadero que esperamos nuestra cena, sino de su propio interés. No nos dirigimos a su humanidad, sino a su amor propio, y nunca les hablamos de nuestras propias necesidades, sino de sus ventajas. Nadie más que un mendigo elige depender principalmente de la benevolencia de sus conciudadanos.

• When you get to work with great people like on our movie, Blake and Ellen Burstyn and Harrison and Kathy Baker, Amanda Crew, the first minute or two it's like, 'Oh my God, I'm working with you,or Harrison,' people you've admired for so long, after like five minutes you realize we're all trying to do the same thing, we all have a passion for telling good stories and we're going to try to make the story the best possible.
