I'd hate to be a sex symbol. Because you're always having to live up to an image. I haven't got time to sit around doing my nails.

I think it's healthy to be insecure, to have nerves.

Being a mum is something that's never bothered me too much. I have never felt a strong need to have children, but I am not averse to it either.

I do believe in an afterlife. I try to be at one with people and try to love life as much as I can.

Actors think they're far more important than they are, and that can only lead to hurt. People with colossal self-importance have very far to fall.

I don't get inoculations or take anti-malaria tablets when I go abroad, I take the homeopathic alternative, called 'nosodes', and I'm the only one who never goes down with anything.

My dad's so likeable, you wouldn't feel in competition with him. If any boyfriends have ever felt that, they're long gone.
