I used to be so intensely preoccupied by unhappiness... now there are times where you might get down, but you can move on much faster now.

After a long time with someone, you realise you've been thinking for two.

I still absolutely love 'The Sound of Music' and anything with Julie Andrews in it.

'The English Patient' was a huge turning point in my career and my life; it became this huge thing. But the whole Oscar build-up got completely out of control; I spent more time talking about that film than I spent making it!

My body is a baby machine.

If you're feeling insecure and you need to feel special, the best place to go is somewhere foreign where people treat you as special because you're different.

As a younger actor you want to be approved of, you want to gain respect, be admired. All of those things. To say: 'This is me playing this character. And aren't I fantastic!' I don't feel that so much now.
