In Britain, girls seem to be either bright or attractive. In America, that's not the case. They're both.

I could take an umbrella and balance it on my chin or on my foot. And I just got interested in that kind of thing. And as I played games more and more and got stronger physically, I just became more coordinated.

I have a tendency sometimes to get too logical with what I'm writing, just because I want it to be kind of perfect.

Writing is the great skill, the creative skill. The acting is more an interpretative skill. And the thrill for me is the moment when I think of something. And then the challenge is how to get that funny idea to work in terms of the structure and that kind of thing, which is - and that's what I really love doing.

England is a fairly envious little country and it's embodied in the press. They don't like anyone being more distinguished than they are.

Laughter destroys any divisions between people.
