“If I get in a relationship, it’s always for the long-term; if not, I don’t see the point.”

I don’t connect much with the present. I have more of an affinity for what came in the past.

You cannot schedule death.

It’s amazing living alone. I’m very lucky. It’s like a refuge.

I’m the type of person who, if somebody offers me a free meal, I get excited because you never know where your next free meal is going to come from.

If I go out with no make-up and a tracksuit on, nobody comes up to me. And if they do, I won’t do a photo because I wouldn’t want any photographic evidence.

I love interesting people with eccentric stories and outsiders of the world.

If I see something that inspires me, I’ll dress like it.

There’s nothing better than achieving your goals, whatever they might be.

I think I’d be a million times more successful and more iconic if I was a singer in the 40s. I’d be allowed a level of mystery and I think I’d suit that decade.

My mum’s always on at me to have children and blames ‘that stupid stage thing you do’ for me not already having a family.

I’m not interested in what other people are doing. That’s their business.

I get to know my regular fans, and they inspire me.

Our flag is not just one of many political points of view.

Because those, who twit others with their faults, should look at home.

I never use nature as a starting point.

I think at this point, there’s a certain bizarre chemistry between Jamie [Hyneman] and I that we can’t ignore a lot of the mechanics of, that we’re quite aware of.

There are things I can’t force. I must adjust. There are times when the greatest change needed is a change of my viewpoint.

I see no point in reading.

In all fairness, you should point out the difference.
