I did the figure of Diana in V, a cult TV show seen all over the world.

Then Mission Impossible brought me to Australia and that was great because I fell in love.

Like at Halloween: I knew I'd arrived when I saw people dressing up on Halloween as my character.

I just feel passionately about a few things and particularly about helping artists get off the ground.

It is a good thing to happen to you, to have that taste of fame because then you don't hanker for it.

I was on Murder She Wrote with Angela Lansbury. She was fantastic... she was lovely to everyone, she was always on time, prepared.

I feel lucky. I think acting can help to keep you young. It does make you feel there's meaning in your life.

Death is the least civilized rite of passage.

To shut one's eyes to half of life that one may live securely is as though one blinded oneself that one might walk with more safety in a land of pit and precipice.

For me, playing music is like meditating - I just play and don't really think about what I'm doing, I just let it happen.

You do have to put in a lot time to get good at anything and than includes cartoons. So I think it's true of art and everything else.
