It's not so much the dressing up, but I love the idea of moving and existing in a different time.

The minute anyone's getting anxious I say, You must eat and you must sleep. They're the two vital elements for a healthy life.

My parents were hugely supportive like that. I was always the best - it's so embarrassing, isn't it? I was always the best at everything.

I've never been married and I've no more desire to be married now than I ever have. I hate bureaucracy and I am not religious.

I'm one of the great unemployed looking for the next job. I'm waiting for the right offer. Like anyone, I want something that turns me on inside.

I consulted a Chinese herbalist and spent two weeks on an island off the coast of Zanzibar. I was away from any kind of contemporary technology.

I never pursued being 'famous.'
