I've read my grandmother's memoirs and she served as a nurse during World War II. What they had to do was incredible.

I trained as a ballet dancer - well, I started when I was two and a half, and was serious about it from when I was eight until I was 18.

I don't know if I'm so righteous.

And it's as you get older that you realize that the things that make you strange are the things that make you who you are. And that's a lovely place to get to.

I've been told I make a very good brew.

At 17, we all think we know what we're doing.

Before I go on stage, I knock three times. Three is my lucky number; I once went into an audition and was number 333 and got the best part ever.
