Are you tired? You should be! You've been running through my mind all day.

Did he annoy me? Yes, he was like a wasp at a picnic.

After a gig I get to the hotel all psyched-up from being on stage and get stuck into 'Homes and Interiors' magazine.

I don't think you'll ever be happy about anything unless you've done it.

I quite like being who I am.

I’m secretly hoping for the full five.

I don't know why people enjoy what I do. I play piano and sing a few songs - and that's about as exciting as I want it to get. The people who come to my shows will have to bring a good book!

I'm not a good time-off person. I'm awful on holiday. It comes from having that period when I didn't work. That really was the worst bit.

Our thoughts are with everyone that's been affected by Manchester attack. We want to stand strong, look at the sky and sing loud and proud.

I seek truth over a lie; I seek justice over injustice; I seek righteousness over the rewards of evildoers, and I love Allah more than I love the state.

At times I experience hardship in trying to find the proper point of balance between traditional things and my own personality.

There has never been a female director who has won an Oscar. There has only been one woman who won at the Cannes Film Festival.

I long to be in the midst of the children, and have more pleasure in their little follies than in the wisdom of the wise.
