Being an actress hasn't made me insecure. I was insecure long before I declared I was an actress.

I thought 'Out of Africa' would be a beautiful ballet.

I find that it's the simple things that remind you of family around the holidays.

I always saw myself as more of a watcher, although I suppose my siblings might have a different viewpoint on it.

It’s just very homey in Ireland. It’s very comforting and comfortable. There’s lots of fireplaces with fires. It’s just really cozy.

I was blonde most of my life and I had to dye my hair for a role. I couldn’t believe the difference when I went red. I just felt ‘wow, I’m home’. It’s great. You do something stupid when you’re blonde and you’re dumb. Do something stupid when you’re red and you’re a character.

I think a lot of times we don't pay enough attention to people with a positive attitude because we assume they are naive or stupid or unschooled.
