I come from a very left wing Socialist family, anti-war and anti-empire.

I think you have to really, really want to be a film star.

I never trusted anybody at all. I don't know why it was so hard, I just didn't.

I never like photos of myself in the beginning. I live with them for three months, put them in a drawer, take them out and look again. I hate the way I look, but of course it's really not that bad.

I get all dressed up with that Marianne Faithfull face, and the next thing I know, I'm blurting out things that I shouldn't, trying to get attention when, really, I've got everybody's attention already.

I was told that I had very likely been clinically depressed for a long, long time, probably since I was 15, or even 14. It explained, to me at least, a lot of my behaviour over the years.

I have to watch out for being lazy.
