My style is scruffy with a touch of androgyny.

My parents are from Manchester but I was brought up in London, Camden Town.

I always wear flat shoes, because I can't walk in anything else.

I've always been an animal lover. People should be made aware of all the issues. Some people think that the whole wearing-fur thing is glamorous, but you can look good without it.

When you love someone so much that you are in pain when you are apart it ends up being destructive. I never want to be in that place again.

I'm always the girl at the party who, within five minutes, has taken my heels off, hitched up my dress in my knickers, and probably spilt drink down my cleavage.

I really fought to make my character not a stereotype. I play a soap star with dyed blonde hair.

I'm playing a very strong character, it's the story of the woman Polish Jews out of the Warsaw ghetto. I've just begun my weapons training and the SAS type training that's getting me fit.

At home it's all Batman and Star Wars and they do gang up on me. Sometimes I don't want to dress up as Darth Vader or play train sets, so I'll go out for a drink with the girls.

I've never got into debt and I've always been in control of my taxes and VAT, but having four children costs a lot. They are my weakness.

My father was a painter and an anarchist, always getting in trouble for his performance art.

Great Groups need to know that the person at the top will fight like a tiger for them.

The only alternative to making mistakes is for someone to make all your decisions for you, in which case you will make their mistakes instead of your own.

None but yourself who are your greatest foe.

And as I ask for your forgiveness, I also ask for your support to keep all things in perspective and keep all things in proportion. The good of nine years versus the bad.

Self-pity is... a sinkhole from which no rescuing hand can drag you because you have chosen to sink.

As happens with people who love a thing too much, it destroys them. Oscar Wilde said, 'You destroy the thing that you love.' It's the other way around. What you love destroys you.

I might cook occasionally, but I'm not a good cook. That's not my passion.

No man shall ever behold the glory of Christ by sight hereafter who does not in some measure behold it here by faith.

This is a story about a man named Eddie and it begins at the end, with Eddie dying in the sun.

Everywhere I look, I see something holy.
