Some people in my family achieved a lot, some people inherited a lot. But I turned my back on the whole thing.

In the theatre, if you say 'Macbeth', all the actors will start looking very anxious. I'm so well-trained not to say it in the theatre that I can hardly say it in normal life.

I'm crazy about ducks and swans and geese, so I don't eat foie gras. I try to eat organic.

I was never, ever the ingenue. The young, innocent lead was just not me.

Some people in my family achieved a lot, some people inherited a lot. But I turned my back on the whole thing.

I was one of those lucky people with only one talent. It is harder for people with many talents to decide what to do.

I find running life quite hard and I like sharing that. Obviously, the companionship, being loved and loving, is fantastic. But I don't feel that I couldn't live without a boyfriend or lover or husband.
