“You bring yourself to every role, it doesn’t matter who it is, it doesn’t matter if it’s a mass murderer, you can bring something to it.”

I’ve always gravitated towards people who are extreme. Whether its drugs, or kicking down doors. Normally, the people in my life had to escape to get back.

I think it doesn’t matter where you’re from, we all need a bit of romance.

I don’t quite understand what Tolstoy’s actual personal view of Anna is – whether he likes her or hates her, whether she’s the heroine or the antiheroine.

The most important thing in playing any character is not judging.

Be happy in your body. It’s the only one you’ve got, so you might as well like it.

The whole point for me is to change as much as possible. If I’ve done one movie, I’ve done that, move on.

I wish I was Sienna Miller. When I talk to her, I hope a bit of her party personality will rub off on me, but it never does.

I think everybody has the right to a private life.

I like watching films when I don’t know anything about the people.

In film as a medium, you’re often given a baddie and a goodie and told what to think about them; it’s usually a very definite point of view.

I see a pair of shoes I adore, and it doesn’t matter if they have them in my size. I buy them anyway.

I am a slow reader. I always loved words, which is a strange thing given that I couldn’t actually read them.

I always feel like I’m the one with everything to prove.

I wasn’t allowed to do commercials. I wasn’t allowed to do TV series. I wasn’t allowed to do soaps or basically anything that would mean I missed too much school.

Half of my mum’s family is Welsh. I remember when I was a kid she used to read to me, and witches and wizards in books always had a Welsh accent, so I guess I took it from that really.

Beauty is everywhere. And my photography came naturally without any particular inspirations growing up.

Another murder I committed made the front page.

Probably the toughest time in anyone’s life is when you have to murder a loved one because they’re the devil.

Everybody is a potential murderer. I’ve never killed anyone, but I frequently get satisfaction reading the obituary notices.

Never murder a man when he’s busy committing suicide.

Never shall I forget those moments that murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to ashes.

I just want to let everyone know I’m not a murderer.

Today I want to puke when I hear the word ‘radical’ applied so slothfully and stupidly to Islamist murderers; the most plainly reactionary people in the world.

The only people who use them [so-called assault weapons] are mass murderers.
