“Generally, I play the kind of ethereal, fragile-on-the-outside-but-hard-and-damaged-on-the-inside type.”

I moved there when I was 19 so I developed a close knit group of friends

I like to go in the opposite direction and do a short film, or something else.

I’m a big fan of Tom Stoppard’s work, and have been since I was in school where I studied him.

None of whom are actors, none of which are Australian, but I couldn’t do it long term.

I’ve done a lot of independent film, which are short shoots that are usually four to six weeks, max.

I’m very analytical about the industry and I understand that there are value systems, and all sorts of things like that.

I never consciously set out to be an actor. I just kind of did whatever acting I could do.

I love new cities, and if I haven’t travelled for a month, the need to go somewhere starts to gets under my skin.

We had to, as children, adapt to various situations with either a military family or things like that.

I really like being thrown into the works. Many actors, I have found, have this as a common trait.

I enjoy everything. After one particular experience of work

Although my father is English, I was brought up in Australia.

I remember vividly one distinct memory of arriving in Hong Kong

And being the only blonde haired girl in this sea of international students, and thinking, ‘Oh, my God. There’s no hiding here.

In a photo shoot, you have to be very comfortable in your own skin.

It’s all about confidence-boosting and putting on armor.

That’s how clueless I was. I just thought I could show up.

Dependent on its vulnerable reserves of air and soil

The water hollows out the stone, not by force but drop by drop.

Enslaving them forever, then murdering them, THEN calling them ‘dumb’!!!

The gods confound the man who first found out How to distinguish hours! Confound him, too, Who in this place set up a sun-dial, To cut and hack my days so wretchedly Into small portions.

He never makes a mistake; but, if his adversary commits the slightest error, he is lost.

Happiness is a sort of atmosphere you can live in sometimes when you’re lucky.

Good merchandise, even hidden, soon finds buyers.
