Any friendship or relationship is about a language.

I love those connections that make this big old world feel like a little village.

I'm not really that keen on mainstream; I'm not interested in doing the normal films. I do tend to go for the quirky, different scripts.

I don't like crowds or attention.

When you shoot on high-definition, everything is very sharp and clear, sometimes at the cost of losing dimension and depth of field.

Every name in a TV show has to be run by the legal department first.

Every person has parallel tracks. You have your personal life or your life as an artist, or whatever it is you do.

The only time I get recognised is when I go somewhere that is showing 'Coupling' on local television.

It's always fun messing around with costumes and stuff. You know there is an element of acting that you've got to dress-up; that's part of it.

I took part in two 'Leverage' conventions. Fans fly in from as far as Russia and Australia. It's expensive to attend.

I am a big comedy fan, having been in 'Coupling.'

They possess the self- effacing virtues of people who are inclined to be useful but don’t need to prove anything to the world:

Only in a crowded, diverse place like New York, surrounded by strangeness, do I come home to myself.

The age can be impressed. Anything will be accepted by men if you will but preach it with tremendous enthusiasm, emotion, persuasionnergy and living earnestness.

Every time something tries to create respect with a machine it crumbles!

If I had a dollar for every million-dollar idea I've had, I'd be rich.

While I disagree with our presence in Iraq and Afghanistan, I have nothing but respect and admiration for the men and women deployed in these places.

Things might not get better but they might not get worse. There's something sort of beautiful about that.

It is much easier to fight through this thing called life with someone, as opposed to fighting alone. I absolutely want to be a wife and to come home to somebody who I know adores me.

Around my own friends, I like to mess around.

Happiness expanded like an explosion inside me – so extreme, so violent that I wasn’t sure I’d survive it.
