I'm not dressing for anyone else. I don't really subscribe to other people's idea of what is beautiful. I just want to feel good.

Working with Martin Scorsese was an absolute minute-by-minute education without him ever being grandiose about it.

If you know you are going to fail, then fail gloriously.

I feel like I've been marinated in Australian theatre.
