Once I put myself into a thing, I do my utmost, my very, very best.

If you don't have the roots somewhere, it's very difficult for people to work with you. Because you are a different person from them. They don't know you, really. They don't know how you feel.

You do not become a star, you are born a star. A star is born with that indefinable extra something.

The facts of life are that a child who has seen war cannot be compared with a child who doesn't know what war is except from television.

I don't go for films that exalt violence. I don't want them in my house. Sometimes my children see them. But nowadays they do it so truthfully and with so much passion that you are shocked.

Good food is a celebration of life.
