I'm terribly fastidious. I like symmetry and neatness, but my house is as chaotic as any other family's.

I don't want anything that I buy to have done any harm to anyone or anything.

A great deal of energy is wasted in hating people, and I can honestly say I've no wish to expend such a precious resource on being outraged about anyone.

Generally speaking, I think that if you do anything with commitment and passion, it will come good.

If you said to me, 'Lie down on that concrete floor and fall asleep,' I could do it. I can sleep anywhere at any time of day on any surface.

It's possible to be satisfied with a day's work or a cake, but a life... what is a life but a history of events badly remembered?

Awesome is loud but awe is quiet.
