I will absolutely say that whatever job I was asked to do, whatever schedule I was asked to work, it is never going to be as hard as looking after a child.

I'm naturally quite lazy, and I actually think I'm lax about my career. None of my work defines who I am.

I've realised I need a gnawing, nagging, anxious doubt when I wake at 4 A.M.

I'm an incredibly negative person, so any form of success is only ever going to be a relief to me and set my default position back to neutral.

Although I was a shy child, I was also a bit flamboyant.

I'm not frightened of a bit of silence.
