There was one day where I had to be hysterical all day, then of course it's going to affect you. You're going to go home and feel drained, or feel like you need to let off steam.

I am terrible at video games and I am really competitive. And if I am not the best at something, I go absolutely crazy!

I always thought I was going to end up an old spinster, with my cats and fur coats.

I don't want to be about the way I look - my body, my hair, my makeup, all those boring things.

I was in lots of dodgy bands growing up and I always fancied myself in a band. But, you know, I was rubbish at writing music. So maybe one day I'll play a rock star, or punk rocker.

When I go home, everyone's very proud. I get recognized the most when I go back to my hometown, but it's in a really sweet way. They're just very proud and supportive.

I've never understood people that sleep around. I think there's something very lacking in your life when you do, not to be judgmental.

I have this attitude to life that is not to take anything too seriously and not worry about anything, and when I met him I wasn't too nervous and I was being myself.

My family are very down-to-earth people. We are not showbizzy at all.

I was quite naughty at school.

I actually had a cockney accent before I went to drama school. It's softened up a bit.

There are people who are dancing through Life and others who are crying through Life. The irony is that Life is the same—what we do is purely our Choice.

I'm sorry to disappoint you, but my experience belongs to me, not the collective bloody unconscious.

I am fiscally prudent and socially progressive. I believe in protecting a woman's right to choose. I believe in marriage equality.

And though all streams flow from a single course to cleanse the blood from polluted hand, they hasten on their course in vain.

I consider the official Catholic attitude on divorce, birth control, and censorship exceedingly dangerous to mankind.

Technique has taken over the whole of civilization. Death, procreation, birth all submit to technical efficiency and systemization.

Time had a way of moulding people into shapes they themselves no longer recognised.

Education is the basic tool for the development of consciousness and the reconstitution of society.

In the acting game, you spend a long time fighting against what the director perceives you to be. And half the time the directors don't know.

The arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and assistance to foreign hands should be curtailed, lest Rome fall.
