I'm a lazy creature when I'm not acting.

I like solitary pursuits, such as reading or pottering about in the garden.

My sons are precious to me and I have tried incredibly hard to strike the right balance between work and home life while being acutely aware that I haven't always got it right.

There's such an energy bounding around New York, I can't help but get swept along in it.

It doesn't make sense that there is only one way of dealing with cancer.

I live in jeans and own a lot of them. I'm much more comfortable in trousers and T-shirts, and I don't often wear dresses.

If ever I feel I might be able to tackle it, I'd love to try holding a spear or something in the theater, or opening a door, or anything, just to try it, you know, because it must be some marvelous magic thing.
