I'd made enough made money by the time I was 12 to never work again, so it's not about a big pay check with me.

I write a good amount. I've been gathering up a backlog of stuff and maybe I'll do something with it someday, but I don't want to talk about it just yet because that would jinx it.

Most of the offers I get from Hollywood are for teen comedies. My manager thinks I'm crazy for turning down all that money, but I'm very picky.

I hope I'm remembered as the king of the world, the noble man who united all the nations of the earth. But that probably won't happen.

I don't even get an allowance.

I've led a very isolated existence since I was 6 years old. It's kind of been me and my mind.

I can go to any restaurant without a reservation, but while I'm there, everyone's gonna be staring.

I'm not one of those people who needs that gratification of doing, like, 10 films a year.

I lead a simple life. I feed the fish. I walk the dogs. I cook dinner. Occasionally I take a meeting.

The funny thing is, I'm not really a big reader, not a big fan of books in the first place.

I'm doing naughty things, I'm drinking too much, I'm going to clubs. It really didn't matter to me, other than the fact that some parents wouldn't let their kids hang out with me.

Quite possibly the only infinite power in the universe may be the human capacity for self-deception.

I try to see the dark and light in everything. This is my way of comforting myself when I am dealing with those emotions.

Like fingerprints, all marriages are different.

A lot of movements use women's involvement to shame men when recruitment is sagging.

I've firmly come to the conclusion that there are no 'themes' for me anymore. I can't be told who to hate, who to fight, who to subdue - I only see an 'us' in my heart.

I grew up in a socialist country. And I have seen what that does to people. There is no hope, no freedom. No pride in achievement.

From my point of view, which is that of a storyteller, I see your life as something artful, waiting, just waiting and ready for you to make it art.

More than anyone, I am aware of the preconceptions. I was a Spice Girl. I'm married to a footballer.

It isn't the past which holds us back, it's the future; and how we undermine it, today.
