Without trust, you have nothing: trust is so important to me.

My sister would say I'm a feeder because I like cooking for people.

Courage is ignoring your fear.

I was raised to want to work for a living. The idea of just sitting around or going shopping every day appalls me.

Before mobile phones, I used to call my parents from a phone box and reverse the charges.

My mum is Croatian, and obviously she's female and she's very emotional, very hot-blooded, very touchy-feely, whereas I think my dad's quite British.

Respect earned through fear instead of deeds, was not truly respect.
