After filming, I cant wait to shake off all that 50s primness. Ill go out to a gig and dance ridiculously. I love to lose myself in music. Just letting go - its dead important.

I did an A Level in Theatre Studies and had a really inspirational teacher, and then I just went on to university.

If feathers don't ruffle, nothing flies.

My first acting experience was a non-speaking role as a robot. My costume was a cardboard box covered in tinfoil, but I was so shy I refused to go on stage.

For any role, I pretty much always go to the script, first and foremost.

I have a lot of Breton striped top and silk shirts that always feel good. I also like things with a masculine edge and dislike anything too girly.

I have a really adaptable face, but when I am just being me, people always think I am younger than I am.

Im certainly not squeamish at all. The countryside makes you very aware of birth and death.

My fondest memories are of watching lambs being delivered.

I find that women want to tell me about their birthing experiences. In the most excruciating detail. It's not put me off having children, but I do feel like I know too much.

On stage, I find anger at the unfairness of the world easily.

The vampire could woo any woman with his charisma and his charm, but he only wishes to romance her.. for eternity.

I like to combine the dramatic emotional warmth of strings with the grooves and body business of drums and bass.

Do you think that it is possible to have a mere taste of commonness? Either one hates it or makes common cause with it.

The noble soul reveres itself

The more we pull together toward a new day, the less it matters what pushed us apart in the past.

All life is the struggle, the effort to be itself.

It is higher and nobler to be kind.

I've travelled a lot, but I am essentially American. All my input has been American.

If you offer me a job sitting in a Winnebago with make-up girls and free food, I'm probably going to take it.

Live just because or live your life for a cause
