Just because I never went to university doesn't mean you can't read, although I do feel a bit uneducated from time to time.

I was always in trouble from an early age. I had a fraught relationship with my parents, who were very traditional. Doing plays at school was a joyous release.

Older women know who they are, and that makes them more beautiful than younger ones. I like to see a face with some character. I want to see lines. I want to see wrinkles.

I've always liked women who are older. They seem to know who they are, and they've lived. They've got soul, and that's very attractive.

If you don't take the chance to live life, what can you say at the end of it?

The older I get, the more I'm prepared to do things for the money.

I never felt at home in London, because people were constantly telling me I didn't belong here, so after a while, you tend to believe that.
