We all have an obligation as citizens of this earth to leave the world a healthier, cleaner, and better place for our children and future generations.

Part of me says that no life will work if I can't make this one right.

I'm mostly a jazz fan and I've never really been into rock 'n' roll music — although I guess Coldplay isn't really rock 'n' roll — but he's made me a convert. I do go to their concerts whenever we're in the same town and I don't even have to wear earplugs any more, which I did in the beginning.

Actors are very generous.

Film has always been hard for me, I'm basically a stage actress. I never felt comfortable in front of the camera.

I loved doing Shakespeare. My two favorite roles, in fact, have been Viola in Twelfth Night and Helena in A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Mostly, I spend my time being a mother to my two children, working in my organic garden, raising masses of sweet peas, being passionately involved in conservation, recycling and solar energy.
