“Well, I suppose I’ve never really had a lifestyle that needs upkeep. I don’t get cabs; I’m on the Tube with my Oyster card.”

I suppose each project is a new thing, so there’s all this excitement and nerves about this new thing.

I don’t really see myself as a big supermodel.

I get on with all my exes, so there’s nothing I need to forget about. I don’t know – life is shorter than it seems.

I don’t know what to expect for the next thing. There are always different people. It’s interesting.

I felt like it was really about people and how decisions and circumstances can change relationships.

Every single thing is like a new thing, so it’s never what I expect.

I can’t just settle for anybody. The fact is I’m choosy, but mainly about a man’s character. He has to be interesting, funny and clever. I don’t even mind if he’s not very good-looking.

I’ve always been really private about my personal life. I don’t talk about it.

I was like: “I’m actually doing this.” And now I feel more confident going into something.

I love ‘Breathless,’ and ‘Paris, Texas,’ and ‘Badlands.’

To be supportive of myself, I have to go with what I want to do. I started acting and I was so mesmerized.

I don’t think a name defines the core of who you are.

I’m like a boomerang, I always come back.

I had a really small role (playing goddess Aphrodite), and I was only working for just over a week with Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson.

I feel what is really great about Pusher is that it wasn’t about drugs and guns and strippers. That was just all circumstantial.

I dress like a tomboy.

In politics, strangely enough, the best way to play your cards is to lay them face upwards on the table.

It was tough to fail year after year. I never even got to the final stage until I got my card on the Web.com Tour.

Debt is a trap, especially student debt, which is enormous, far larger than credit card debt.

If you look at my job, my union card, it says ‘actor.’ It don’t say nothing about celebrity, movie star, nothing like that, and that’s one thing that keeps me humble.

Don’t send funny greeting cards on birthdays or at Christmas. Save them for funerals, when their cheery effect is needed.

Life is not a matter of holding good cards, but of playing a poor hand well.

The Turn of a Friendly Card. The Sicilian Defence album was never released and never will be.

The people who despise America are the editors of the ‘New Statesman.’ Their green-card applications must have been turned down.
