An actress once advised me, 'Make sure you do your own laundry - it will keep you honest.'

Once you get an offer from Steven Soderbergh, you just do anything you can to make it fit.

I think our Western society is very much about, 'Tuck your head in; make sure you're safe. Don't rock the boat.'

You're always more critical of your own country. People will talk about stuff in Britain, and I'll go: 'Aw, it's not that bad,' but at home, it's different. It's inside you.

When you're stretching yourself, as a role like 'Blue Jasmine' did for me, you risk falling flat on your face.

When I have my moments of insomnia, you'll find me on style.com.
