I'm very much an admirer of people who are reaching for things and trying to survive.

I just have a desire not to judge and view things compassionately.

I think it's important for me as an actor that I say these are the issues I'm going to be committed to. One of them for me is women and children's health around the world and their rights;the other is ovarian cancer.

I think when you're in a relationship where you really care for the other person, when they achieve their dreams it's better than when you do yourself.

As an actor timing is important, especially as a mother with small children, so a lot is chance.

I'm spontaneous. I jump in. I kind of like getting married and then getting to know each other; I know that it sounds incredibly strange, but to me, it's a more natural process.

I like exploring life and its complexities.
