Quotes
“I think I would tell my 24-year-old self to go out more, to just enjoy myself a little bit more. Just absolutely fill your days with spending time with friends, and not panicking about the future so much.”
“I think as we get older, and people are getting into relationships and come across obstacles… that’s when your friendships really come into focus, and I think we realise how important and necessary they are.”
“In your twenties, it’s a time when you’re maybe living with your friends, and you’re experiencing life together. And then as we grow up, we get this feeling of nostalgia for a time that we won’t ever really have again.”
“I was always performing as a kid. That’s what I was the happiest doing. I would put on shows for my parents and force them to watch.”
“I really want people to know that you do not have to know what you’re doing in your twenties. All these milestones, like you should probably have a mortgage by this age and have a long-term relationship, or whatever, all these milestones we are meant to hit, they don’t mean anything. As long as you’re going at your pace and you’re happy, you are good.”
“Platonic relationships in your life are just as important, if not more than the romantic ones, so put as much time and love into those.”
“I’ve learned so much from each job and character, and with the help of my cast-mates and directors that I’ve worked with, I’ve grown so much in confidence. I trust my instincts a lot more and I’m better at speaking up for myself.”
“Back when I started, if I had an idea I would think, ‘Oh, maybe I’m not allowed to give my opinions. I’m not here to do that.’ Coming from modelling meant that I didn’t have much of a chance to speak up.”
“I like diving into characters that can be difficult to understand, especially the tricky ones. Being able to find something that I can empathize with and connect to in a character matters to me. I have to understand them to make them believable and truthful for me because, to me, if you care about a character it is a lot easier to play them.”
“I think I’ve always had a love for ‘unlikable’ and messy characters. I like the challenge of fighting against perceptions. If an audience already thinks they know the story of a character, how can I make them understand or empathize with them? It’s about subverting that impression they might already have.”
“I always hold my friendships so close to my heart. I’ve been a believer that you need to put as much time into your friendships as you do romantic relationships because they are just as important. They’ve probably been around longer and they might be around long after depending on what happens.”
“Take your friends on dates, why not! Buy them some flowers now and again. Pay as much attention to your friends as you do your romantic relationships.”
“I didn’t want to go to uni so modelling worked really well for me, and through that I got an audition for a short film, and as soon as I got that I thought, this is my chance. I got really lucky. It just felt like everything fell into place at the right time.”
“I want to take a few months off to live my regular life for a bit. There are so many good projects out there and I like taking the time to read scripts. The ebb and the flow of acting is what I love – I don’t have to do it all the time.”
Emma Appleton deserves a standing ovation for achieving so much in a short period of time. Hopefully, she plans to stay around for a long time and entertain us all with her acting skills.
