I could be equally happy on a film set or in the middle of a field.

I want to prove that you don't have to come from Oxford University or Rada - and you don't have to have parents that support you - to succeed.

I think once you're a mother to one, you're a mother to them all.

My mind boggles at the amount of violence inflicted upon children in today's society.

I had literally the time of my life, and thought, "Wow. Television doesn't seem to be as crazy as it was when I was a kid." The dream for me was always to be in the movies, you know. But when this came along, I read the first script and I thought, "Oh, my gosh. This is incredible."

I believe it is my duty as a performer to raise issues in the world of things we're afraid to look at.

Everyone wants to look their best, everyone has dreams of wanting to look like something else. But we are who we are.
