I've told so many lies about my age I don't know how old I am myself.

I never weigh myself, but the brutal truth of television is that they don't employ old people or fat people.

I have to keep reminding myself that I am their mother. Sometimes we are sitting at home and I feel like we are waiting for our mom to come home.

I'm lucky not to have a nine-to-five job.

I am lucky to have good Polish skin that doesn't wrinkle so I might be around for a few years yet.

'The Piano' is a romantic drama that really made me want to see New Zealand. When I finally did it was every bit as jaw dropping as it looked in the film. It's so virgin and green, it's like God said 'lets try again' and he got it right this time!

My whole career has been an act of revenge.
