I don't want to be labeled as one thing or another. In the past I've had successful relationships with men, and now I'm in this successful relationship with a woman. When it comes to love I am totally open. And I don't want to be put into a category, as in "I'm this" or "I'm that."

For someone like me, who prefers to keep their life as private as possible, it was disconcerting to have to define so much about myself. I don't want to be labeled as one thing or another.

I can sit in front of the TV and watch an old romantic film and be transfixed.

You can't respect yourself if you're afraid to be who you are.

School was a waste of time for me. I was bored and left at 16. I started taking correspondence courses at college instead. I did incredibly well. I won an award for my grades.

I have been in my fair share of both onscreen and off screen fights.

It's rare to have even half-meaningful conversations in the film industry.
