Actors think they're far more important than they are, and that can only lead to hurt. People with colossal self-importance have very far to fall.
There is nothing more special than a love of a child, and I love the fact I am an auntie.
I want to be in 'The Hobbit.' I love fantasy and mythical adventure films. I believe in fairies and angels. I believe in nature's spirit, that there are other realms, other planets, life forms.
It distresses me when I take my seven-year-old nephew out. I cook healthy food, and he wants to go to McDonald's. He doesn't even like the food; he just wants the toys, the Happy Meals. I can't stand to see people walking down the street eating fast food.
I love finding things. I love digging around in the dirt. It's part of my Virgo. It's like acting, really. You're always searching around for something and finding little hidden treasures.
I don't get inoculations or take anti-malaria tablets when I go abroad; I take the homeopathic alternative, called 'nosodes', and I'm the only one who never goes down with anything.
It's very hard to dramatise something factual and not make it look overdone, but also not to make it look so under-dramatised that it's dull.
I am always baffled by age, but to be honest with you, I feel like I am about 34. I feel better now and I am certainly healthier than I was in my early 30s. I am more rounded, too.
Cuba is such a beautiful country, and everywhere you go, there's music and people dancing - especially in Havana.
I think it's healthy to be insecure, to have nerves.
I'm terrible at solving things. I'm really bad and haven't got any sort of lateral thinking capacity. I am your perfect audience for a mystery. I love that kind of stuff. I'm always on the edge of my seat.
I do believe in an afterlife. I try to be at one with people and try to love life as much as I can.
It's not so much that I'd like to play a raunchy character, but I would like to play someone my own age. I'm always playing down, but I guess it's good because it means I've got a longer life in my acting career.
Ever since I can remember feeling love for my parents, I've been frightened of losing them.
I love to travel with my family or my two best friends because I completely trust them. I forced my two best friends into learning to scuba dive with me in Sri Lanka - it was amazing but also hideous because we were learning in very difficult seas.
I'm single, and I think that by the time I met someone - if I were ever to meet the right person, which I don't think I will, because I am too fussy - my biological clock means that it will be too late.
I've got a string of disastrous relationships behind me. I don't think I'm an easy person to live with.
I'd hate to be a sex symbol. Because you're always having to live up to an image. I haven't got time to sit around doing my nails.
I'm not much of a baby freak - I like them when they're older.
I'm into the law of attraction and quantum physics. Like cosmic ordering. It's all about thinking lovely things that you would like in life, and feeling good about them before they manifest, so that by the time they do, you don't want them because you're on to your next desire.
