Food is a big part of my culture, so everyone knows how to cook. When I came to America and asked a babysitter to softboil an egg for my son and she didn't know how, I was shocked.

In America, they are paranoid about ruining the reputations of people once they are dead and cannot answer back. They have this fascination which to me seems cruel and morbid. I do not want any part of it

I don't think a Hollywood actor is safe from acting in the rain: it all depends on the film.

But I don't really see myself as a role model. I'm not a dictator, or someone who wants to be adored!

I was always fascinated by the infinite, strange and 'scandalous' ways that insects copulate.

The reason of my life is not to be the most beautiful woman in the world.

I believe in a set of values I cannot live by.
