My biggest ambition is never to be bored. I'm not aggressive enough to strongly run after being an actress.

Some people had fathers who were bankers or farmers, my father made films, that's how I saw it. As for the movie stars, they were just around, some of them were friends, others weren't, it was all just a part of my everyday life.

I think most actors like to be liked.

Going back to Ireland involves at least six to seven emotional breakdowns for me per day.

I very much like doing voiceovers, and I also like doing readings. I do books on tape and stuff. I have fun with it.

I do like the ocean wave, actually. I'm born under the sign of Cancer - the sign of the crab - so I like coastal areas and sunny beaches and such - although not the wide-open and deep seas.

I have two new nephews and a new niece this year, so I have plenty of kids that I can spend time with.
