I happen to find motherhood a very natural state, but I know a lot of other people don't.

I play Nitin Sawhney's 'Letting Go' repeatedly, nonstop. I find it transformative. I'm so glad iPods were invented so I didn't have to drive everyone around me mad with the repetition.

I always keep myself busy. I'm writing. Or I'm creating something. Or I'm doing stuff with the kids. I'm up incredibly early in the morning; I go to bed incredibly late at night.

In terms of 'Solaris,' I didn't really think about the religious aspect an awful lot. There's one scene at a dinner party, and it's discussed, but it wasn't an overwhelming theme for me.

I have a massive divide between being a competent human being and being completely hopeless, when it comes to logic.

Scribbling things down is my therapy. I filter later.

I think it's incumbent on actresses to bring something else to the part which isn't in the script.

My stepfather introduced me to The London Library when I was about 18; the clientele has definitely changed since then, but it is still a wonderful oasis in the middle of London.

I feel awful for women who are trying to raise kids on their own, with zero income and no fathers present - that's single motherhood.

Death is final. No it is not just final, it's worse than that, it's diminishing: the dead continue to decrease, to occupy less space.

Africans must change their mind and actions.The keys to building your continent depends on your will-power, persistent effort and action towards self liberation.

By making a comeback, I'm changing the attitude of people toward me. If I'd known that people would react so enthusiastically, I'd have done it years ago.

Wills are trumped by legal titles to real estate or beneficiary designations on financial accounts, retirement plans and insurance policies.

I am not very good with relationships. With anyone. I can't be locked up with anyone for too long.

I like money. You like money. We need the money. But, money is not going to bring humanity and spiritualism into your life.

When I hear that a man is religious, I conclude he is a rascal!

There are an infinity of angles at which one falls, only one at which one stands.

I'm always busy, but I'm lazy as well.

I played football for a huge portion of my life, all the way through college actually.

I'm pretty immature and get pretty embarrassed easily. I would check out once in a while certain shots to make sure that I felt OK because sometimes once you see it you realize it is fine.
