It's fun to pretend you're good at something you know you wouldn't be good at in real life.

I love films. I love music. I love poetry and stories. All of that I feel… I sort of get very excited and fed by.

The thing I love about acting is that you can bring something very personal into the open and at the same time remain hidden because you're always playing a character in a story that someone else has imagined. You're always protected.

I wish that the arts were better supported, and you can't say that enough times, but I also believe that whatever happens, artists will keep going.
