Quote by Julian Fellowes (b. 1949)

• I don't want my own son to die, but this is a war and we must be in it together. High and low. Rich and poor. There can be no special cases because every man at the front is a special case to someone.

• War makes early risers of us all.

• You never know people, do you? You can work with 'em for twenty years; you don't know 'em at all.

• Lawyers are always confident before the verdict. It's only after that they share their doubts.

• It's the gloomy things that need our help, if everything in the garden is sunny, why meddle?

• Any bride who doesn't suck up to their husband's mother is a fool.
