I never had crushes on anybody when I was younger; I really didn't.

It doesn't matter how old you are, or what you do in your life, you never stop needing your mom.

In films I might look glamorous, but I've been in hair and make-up for two hours.

Youre supposed to be the leading lady in your own life, for Gods sake!

Ah, my dad's whistle. On holidays when I was a kid, we would all be off in the rock pools along the beach. When it came time to go, we'd hear the whistle and we'd all come running. Like dogs!

I was a wayward child, very passionate and very determined. If I made up my mind to do something, there was no stopping me.

As a young girl, I never felt attractive. I was fat and unhappy at times, and that kind of thinking stays with you your entire life. There's always going to be a part of me that worries about not looking as slim as other actresses. But at a certain point, when you achieve a lot of your goals and you can be proud of your work, you start to relax more about who you are. And that includes your appearance and self-image - I don't think I look too bad for a mother of two. But women shouldn't have to feel the pressure to compare themselves to actresses or models.
