I really don't think that the Oscar changed my career much because I didn't want it to.

For me, habit is just a synonym for death.

It's challenging as an actor to let go but I had some pleasure out of it too. To not have the effort of having to present myself is quite liberating.

My outlook on life is to be true. To take risks. To love the shadows as well as the light. To find your task. To recognise your task. To be active.

As an actress we don't beat one another. It's whoever's right for the part.

I take care of myself because I'm an actress and I have to take care of my body as it's my tool in order to give in films.

Acting is a tough business, and you need to be in good shape mentally and physically.
