I like me Italian girls; half Halle Berry, half Penelope Cruz sort of thing!

I'm not a big splurger of money, but my guilty pleasures do lie within BMWs. I get roped in.

I like the dueling club scene, where Daniel and I fight with our wands. I thought it was a brilliant scene to shoot. I think the end product looked really good.

I used to have some fish, some nice little carp, but they got too big for the tank. I don't have any pets now.

Yeah, we held a junior carp tournament on the St. Lawrence River in New York last August. I hosted that along with a couple of other people.

There are a couple of carp fishing books I've been reading. I'm very interested in that line of books, because I think they write very well, carp anglers, about the general environment.

I like physics. I think it is the best science out of all three of them, because generally it's more useful. You learn about speed and velocity and time, and that's all clever stuff.

I like geography. I like to know where places are.

I started my own record label.

I plan to go to college in Southampton, a fishery studies college. Again, my brother was down there about two years ago and he said it was great, so I'm looking forward to that.

Whatever life throws at me I'll take it and be grateful for it as well.

Love is more beautiful when it's real.

How many geniuses die undiscovered, not only by others but, more sadly, by themselves?

They were written on cheap blue notebooks bought by poor women. I'm interested in folk tales in the way that medicine and magic in women's stories are all kind of combined.

Sometimes I will look away very quickly, and freeze frame that first impression, pleased with myself that I have outsmarted my own smartness, and perceived a colour as it actually is.

skulduggery pleasant is the best book I've ever read and has enspired myself to become an author.

You can't get ahead while getting even.

If peace is our single aim in all we do, we will always know what to do because we will do whatever will protect and deepen our peace.

Maybe people don't know I'm a news junkie? I watch and I tape a breadth of everything that's happening in the world, and that fascinates me.

We don’t know what we’re capable of until we have to survive. Each of us is stronger than we know - the key is learning to tap that power at will.

Numbers have life; they’re not just symbols on paper.
