Because I trained in theater, I always leave a film shoot feeling like I haven't done anything, like I just sat in front of the camera and whispered, essentially.

I love firing guns. It's an amazing feeling - so sexy and powerful.

I am often lost in my own world, with a frown on my face.

From a very young age, stories fuelled my imagination in the most wonderful way.

The art of conversation consist as much in listening politely, as in talking agreeably.

I think it's always easier to play parts that you have something concrete that you can relate to.

I read a lot of heavy literature when I'm on set, so on holiday I want to indulge in something light-hearted.

I'd love to do an action movie. Something with lots of stunts. Anything fast and dangerous and involving guns.

I can't imagine it if beauty was the only currency I used as an actress. It just doesn't interest me.

I don't think I'm curvaceous. It's simply that most other actresses are really, stupidly tiny.

I'm deeply ambitious and I always have been.

For adventure is not outside a man it is within.

What can you do if they have slapped you with a legal notice? You have to reply. For all you know, they have taken you to jail or something.

For what you do to others, you do to yourself.

I'm not going to be a rebel and offend anybody, but I'm not going to live in somebody else's image.

I am worth inconceivably more to hang than for any other purpose.

Let's not talk so much about vice. I'm against vice in all forms.

Everything in modern civilization is based on this concept of time which is not really valid.

Nothing about us without us.

And these are joys, like beauty, but skin deep.

Anything worth doing, is worth doing all the way. Just know you'll have to live with all the choices that you make.
