I certainly have no plans to leave London. It's a great town.

I never imagined it wouldn't work out for me. I had that absolute certainty in myself that has seen me through, I think, and my parents were absolutely behind me all the way.

Above all things I believe in love.

My heart aches completely, every hour, every day, and only when I'm with you does the pain go away.

Then, one day, when you least expect it, the great adventure finds you.

The beautiful thing about it is that no two directors or actors work the same way. You also learn not to be afraid of discussion and conflict.

I want to wear skinny jeans when I'm in my 70s. Why not? Who cares?

I really want to play Princess Leia. Stick some big pastries on my head. Now, that would be interesting.

If a lion invites you to dinner, turn down the offer, no matter how hungry you are.

I remain an eternal optimist about love. I believe in love.

I went to Catholic school in and out. I'm what you call a recovering Catholic. I have many major issues with the church.

If your friends won't tell you the truth, who will?

As every cockroach knows, thriving on poisons is the secret of success.

In physics the truth is rarely perfectly clear, and that is certainly universally the case in human affairs. Hence, what is not surrounded by uncertainty cannot be the truth.

I want to touch people with my art. I want them to say "he feels deeply, he feels tenderly".

For me, perfume, must be adapted to fashion, not the other way around.
