I love the characters I've had the opportunity to play.

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.

The thing about acting is that it's fairly random. At the end of the day you take what drifts past you or what's given to you.

I don't think I am especially interested in celebrities, but I love talking about what is going on with people and why they do what they do.

In film, I find it very useful always to do some preparation before you start rehearsals or start shooting, because there's so much that's against you on a film set.

I reckon domesticated cats have a pretty good 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.
