I watch TV all the time. Everything.

Proving yourself in a field where the casualty rate is so notoriously high is an ongoing challenge.

Never give up. You only get one life. Go for it!

I place an enormous premium on loyalty. If someone betrays me, I can forgive them rationally, but emotionally I have found it impossible to do so.

Anthony Hopkins says you just keep acting. Do it all the time and eventually it will happen. He got his break, after all, by taking a role nobody else wanted. A cannibal!

I have been incredibly privileged with my roles - after all I have had the chance to do some fantastic fun acting such as the Spice Girls Movie - who can ever forget that!

Always have an answer - even if you change your mind five minutes later.

You finish a movie and you think, there, you've done it, really well, or best you can. But if you watch it, you see it was just bollocks.

If you're doing well, you're a target, nobody's interested in you except how you can be of use to them.

Time and time again I was told that I would never make the film on time and never make it on budget. That kind of criticism tends to turn me into a great big motor of efficiency.

I loved being asked 2,000 questions a day, storyboarding every move, knowing as though by instinct exactly where the camera had to be, because it was my story.

We have all experience times of despair and fear. But it is better to live with hope and faith.

Happiness is the inevitable prize of repeated positive interpretations of one's experiences.

Serving others is the surest and practical way of channeling your love. There is no love through lip service. If you love humanity, serve…

We all know the sense of comfort of which we are conscious when a good half of the floor space in a room is unencumbered this seems to offer us the agreeable possibility of moving about freely.

I think the world is a place for oddballs and freaks. I'm only interested in oddballs and freaks as characters.

I became a terrible drunk or alcoholic - or a good one depending on your point of view.

I chose a sunflower because when darkness descends they close up to regenerate. But I really wish I'd never had the tattoo in the first place. Clean, clear skin is always better.

My idea of a good hit is when the victim wakes up on the sidelines with train whistles blowing in his head... I like to believe that my best hits border on felonious assault.

When people say, 'I don't get art' ... that means art is working.

For me, the most important thing is to continue to play well and to be a positive figure and hopefully a role model for kids as well.
