I've never been very good talking about myself.

Success is very ephemeral. You depend entirely on the desire of others, which makes it difficult to relax.

French sounds flat. In English, you can play with pitch.

The good thing about this Casino Royale thing, that I hope and pray, is that I'll have more opportunities. That roles will come up to me rather than going to the auditions. But I still have a lot of things to prove. I haven't, I think, shown all my talent.

For me, working out is nothing to do with looks. It's to let it all out - the stress, the self-consciousness - you think less; it makes you more centred.

Lots of shy people dress a bit too much. It's just kind of an armour. People say the same thing about me.

I've always felt like I'm from another planet.
