There's nothing sexy about doing a nude scene. It's rather uncomfortable. I like dressing up rather than dressing down.

Gardening is learning, learning, learning. That's the fun of them. You're always learning.

There is that awful moment when you realize that you're falling in love. That should be the most joyful moment, and actually it's not. It's always a moment that's full of fear because you know, as night follows day, the joy is going to rapidly be followed by some pain or other. All the angst of a relationship.

American actors know that the most important thing is to get one take out of fifty that is great, and they'll go to any length to get it.
