“I’m not going to wallow in self-pity and not live my life. There are always going to be some falls in life for everybody, no matter what career you have. You have to roll with the punches and keep going.”

I love mentoring young girls. I’ve always been like that.

I trust pictures, but no pictures made in my world – because I know what goes on.

I don’t like workouts that make you bulky.

No one should ever be ashamed of going to meetings. It’s healthy, it’s therapeutic and it’s the right way to live.

I loved watching so many of the great designers I’ve worked with do what they do. That’s why I’m still loyal to the designers that I’ve known since I was 16.

I have no regrets. I’ve got my health.

I’ve never made an excuse of not knowing my father, because I’ve had great people in my life.

I don’t think I was born beautiful. I just think I was born me.

I was always told to avoid being famous just for being famous. That’s something that has always stuck in my mind. I like to work. It helps if you like what you do.

I don’t worry about a number. I’m fine with aging.

My mum [who has breast cancer] is a fighter. I’ve got that from her, I know she’s a fighter.

I’ve never had a fear of traveling and going to a new place. I adapt.

Feeling passionate about something doesn’t mean you have to be angry.

Gluttony? I could eat and eat and eat and eat and eat. I’d love to pig out on gluten. I mean, I’m allergic to gluten, but I really want to do that. I want to sit in bed one day and just pig out.

You see all races in music, and in dance and theatre, so why can’t we see it in fashion?

The worst was when my skirt fell down to my ankles, but I had on thick tights underneath.

It’s much harder to act in a bad film than in a good one. A terrible script makes for very difficult acting. You can win an Academy Award for some of the easiest acting in your career, made possible by a brilliant script.

In my career, whether it’s a big or a small movie, when I’ve worked on something for a long time, like [Ivan] Drago in Rocky IV, they start to take on a life of their own.

I got a divorce, and I felt like I finally started my career. I started making movies and projects that I just really believed in.

I think I’m even more open and more giving as a father now. I pay more attention now because I value it more and I’m less caught up with my career.

A job is not a career. I think I started out with a job. It turned into a career and changed my life.

People have an idea that one is in control of a career, a lot more than you really are. You can engineer things to an extent. But you are at the mercy of what comes in across the desk.

I am only 33, I’ve got a lot to do. This is the first half of my career. I’m looking forward to the future and I’m proud about the past.

Your career will be a painful one. I divine something in you which offends the vulgar.
