Sometimes, I think I could have been a major movie star with the vast mansion and staff. I look at my Volvo and think it could be a limousine. I think of the roles I turned down. But then I wouldn't have had any children.

Successful films are very dangerous things.

If anyone says 'Let's have a girls' night out', I will run in the opposite direction.

I'm not at all fed up with British films, but I am fed up with playing upper-class people.

I think people do work too much. I've never been able to understand the whole 'make hay while the sun shines' thing. Either I want to work or I don't want to work.

I'm very wary of trust, you see.

My body is a baby machine.
