I'm not cool at all. I'm the least cool person I know.

I wouldn't feel comfortable talking to someone I didn't know very well and, beyond that person, a readership of X millions, about things I think are private.

I know it sounds ridiculous, but I haven't quite got over the miracle that you plant things, and they do sprout up.

I know some people are really comfortable with talking about their feelings and hopes and fears in public, but I'm not, and I don't think it's that extraordinary.

My family weren't actors, and we didn't know any actors. It wasn't even something I was aware you could do as a job. I thought you had to be a Redgrave or a Barrymore before you were allowed to go to drama school.

You can finish the day's filming or the whole shoot or watch something months later and think you could have done it so much better. It's frustrating.
