Paula Malcomson Quotations

I'm pretty excited about the state of TV these days. There's great opportunity for really complicated relationships, in a way that I don't really see as much in movies anymore.

I'm not interested in a pretty world. It's boring to me. If you're lucky enough to get to play a character for a long time, it's life-changing.

A room full of hundreds, let alone thousands, of people is not my most fun thing in the world.

I try not to be too profane around children or old people. Other than that, that's how I speak.

I just want to play strong characters, whatever that is in. For me, television is where it's at. You get to play a character for a long period of time, and you get to dig deep. It's a home to go to.

If you're going to play a prostitute, you can't be too squeamish about that sort of thing. It's just part of the job, since the role requires it.

Listen, I'm from Belfast. We're not polite people. And it's language. We're direct.

As actors, we're a little faster than other people, with breaking down the walls.

If you're lucky enough to get to play a character for a long time, it's life-changing.

I'm not interested in a pretty world. It's boring to me.

I just want to play strong characters, whatever that is in.
