I have an internal protectiveness where it's like, if it comes to just me, as frightened as I am of losing someone I love or things going sour or simply being alone, there is a dark place in my brain where I'm like, It could happen and I'm okay, I'm prepared.

Sometimes it's a bizarre, fairly cold, and horrifying thing to be a parent.

There's nothing more exciting for an actor than a chance to lose, to be someone who has lost - especially if it's someone who starts off with a veneer of control. To be broken is wonderful.

I hate being looked at. Can't stand it. I know, I know - I picked the wrong career.

There is something in the act of having tattoos done that I love. It can be quite addictive. I've got a few on my back because my friend is an artist, and a few on my arms. Every time I pass a tattoo parlour, I think, 'Maybe just a tiny one.

It's a feeling without a lid, of what you would do, physically, verbally, to protect the one thing that is your greatest love.

I think I cry when I'm angry. I let it go that way.
