I have such a huge girl crush on Beyonce.

It's beneficial to play against your type; to be chameleon-like.

My history teacher was utterly terrifying, but her lessons were very inspiring. She got me interested in people and stories, which then led me to acting.

I've not sat with my agent going: 'Where is the next hopeless girl I can play?' They just come along.

When I'm in a tricky situation I often think: 'What would Beyonce do?' It helps.

You have to have sympathy for and an empathy with a character in order to play them.

In the U.K., there is a sort of obsession with class.

I'm not recognised much at all.

I think it must be so hard to start your career with everyone going on about how gorgeous you are. To be in that bracket must be so pressurised.

I don't really get recognised very much.

As actors, you play people who are not yourselves!

Joy is the feeling of one's powers increasing.

And I think they knew. Not anything specific really. They just knew. And I think that's all you can ever ask from a friend.

The plan is to start performing smaller venues and work my way up from there, this anxiety isn't going to get the better of me.

Frailty thy name is woman!

If you want to change the culture, you will have to start by changing the organization.

Staying at home with your kids is probably one of the hardest jobs, emotionally, physically and mentally.

And, granted, for a long time, the European has been dominant in certain parts of this Western Hemisphere, but by the end of the 21st century, it's over.

To put failure behind you, face up to it.

Seeking means admitting that you do not know. Once you have cleared your slate, truth can imprint itself upon it.

My hands are guilty, but my heart is free.
