Hunger is almost like something the West does. It's almost like the direct result of the way the West performs.

I don't spend a lot of time with anybody.

I have a perfectly average skewed perception of myself. We often don't know what we're like.

Actors always talk about taking their work home and I always think: 'What are you on? You just turn it off. You are at work and then you go home.'

I did actually sit down with a blank sheet of paper once. I think the phone rang and that was the end of my literary career.

When you have a family, or even when you're just seeing a girl, it's difficult to be skint.

I'm relaxed naked as long as there is no one else there. I speed up past mirrors.
