Sharon Horgan Quotes

I think that’s important to women in comedy, that we get a lot of the good lines and you’re not just the girlfriend or the sister Picture Quote #1

I’m a massive scaredy cat. I’m scared of being in a fast car, I’m scared of being on a rollercoaster, I would never go skiing, I would never do anything that had the possibility of endangering my life in any way. I should get some therapy, really Picture Quote #1

Hackney gets a bit of a bad rap, but it’s the only place I’ve ever lived that felt like a community. I know my neighbours Picture Quote #1

I think the best comedy is tragicomic. Yeah, I suppose if you were to look at everything I’ve done, there is a bit of a black streak through all of it. It’s not deliberate: it’s what makes me laugh, and there’s a fine tradition of it, especially in Ireland Picture Quote #1

I started writing sketches with Dennis Kelly, who I ended up writing ‘Pulling’ with. We entered a BBC competition and did quite well, then started writing bits for other people’s shows. You wheedle your way in, write pilots and eventually you end up writing a sitcom Picture Quote #1

Comedy and drama are less ageist media for women than stuff like light entertainment. But in TV or film, women have to be more pleasing on the eye than men Picture Quote #1

At 27 or so I thought, you know, I actually do really want to make money and have a proper life, and I don’t want to be a loser. I know! I’ll go to university and get a proper degree and maybe get a job in media... I went and did an English degree Picture Quote #1

Things change when you get to 40. I’m embarrassed even that I’m going through it. In a very morbid way, at 40 you become aware of how long you’ve been on Earth and you start to question what you’re going to use the remaining time doing Picture Quote #1

I never felt like I had to rebel against my convent upbringing, because it was comparatively regular Picture Quote #1
