I am never going to get divorced, and that's that.

My God. What's happened?

Loneliness is the worst pain in this world. It constantly eats away the person's heart, and can cause the person to hate, to feel enraged. It is like a wound of the heart; the type of wounds that cannot go away with a kiss or a hug. The only thing that can make this great pain go away is love and compassion, another human heart to pull them out of this hell.

I've got what my mother's got - however bloody you are feeling you can put on the most amazing show of happiness.

If I am to care for people in hospital I really must know every aspect of their treatment and to understand their suffering.

My first thoughts are that I should not let people down, that I should support them and love them.

[On the press:] I love working with children, and I have learned to be very patient with them.
