“I think when you’re in a relationship where you really care for the other person, when they achieve their dreams it’s better than when you do yourself.”

I have a passion for my work, and that can seep into you. It’s almost as if you’re drawn to it.

I don’t believe in having body doubles for a film.

It was very natural for me to want to disappear into the theatre, I am really very shy.

Since I have fair skin, I have to stay out of the sun. I can’t stand the sun. I dyed my hair red for a while during the 1990s but I’m actually a natural blonde.

I believe in continuing to put love and kindness and compassion and art into the world.

I would describe myself as emotional and highly strung. If something upsets me, it really upsets me. If something makes me angry, I get really angry. But it’s all very upfront. I can’t hide it. I’m also loyal and I hope I’m fun.

To appreciate the success you have to have had the failures. You have to accept that it is a journey and its not just tomorrow or the next day or next year.

Stay out of the sun, because it is the worst thing in terms of aging. I’m very medical. I come from a medical family.

You’ve got to find your bliss as a human being, because if you can follow that, everything else falls into place.

Ultimately, you’re left with the people you love and who love you- everything else fades into oblivion.

I’m very much an admirer of people who are reaching for things and trying to survive.

Men don’t pay you for sex, they pay you to leave after sex.

Whatever you do in life, don’t give up on your own dreams.

If you take care of the woman in the family, the whole family prospers. But when the mother falters, the family falls apart.

These dire predictions of COVID are behind us. Covid is getting milder and people are learning to treat it better. The percentage of deaths is coming down. We are learning to live with it.

It seems wisest to assume the worst from the beginning, and let anything better come as a surprise.

An English criminal, you know is always better concealed in London than anywhere else.

To the oppressed with no seat on the table; dreaming of change and better days, I will pull up a chair, and light fires in your name.

There is hope for the future, and when the world is ready for a new and better life, all these things will some day come to pass, – in God’s good time.

The more enjoyment people derive from their work, the better they will produce.

Better to put things at the worst at first and reserve the best for a surprise.

The Great Spirit will not make me suffer because I am ignorant. He will put me in a place where I shall be better off than in this world.
