“I can read people, and if the other person doesn’t want to say anything,”

I’ve always thought darker characters were more fun to play.

What is the key to life on Earth?

I have been in control of what Ive been doing, of the career Ive put together.

They’re probably not any more complex or interesting than their good, law-abiding cousins, and I’d always tend to see things from their point of view.

Listen, I have to spend every single day living with me, so I know for a fact; I’m lovely, I’m completely lovely.

I’m fine with that. People say things when it’s time to say them.

It is exciting to be off to a new land with a new friend.

I find still photographs make me quite self-conscious.

For me, now, working and children is it. Theres nothing more to life.

Whenever we feel that we are definitely right, so much so that we refuse to open up to anything or anybody else, right there we are wrong. It becomes wrong view.

The empty mind – the pure mind – is not a blank, zero-land, where you’re not feeling or caring about anything.

We do it, not with desire, but with letting go. If you want anything, you wont find it.

Do not try to become anything. Do not make yourself into anything. Do not be a meditator. Do not become enlightened.

We no longer demand that sensory consciousness be anything other than an existing condition that we can use skillfully according to time and place.

I would love, more than anything, to do an out-and-out farce with huge physical energy.

Remember you dont meditate to get anything, but to get rid of things.

I never talk about my personal life. After these rumours, I definitely do not want to comment on anything.
