I like characters who have strong facades and then have secrets. They have cracks.

Everyone wants to work in America. Maybe not blockbusters or Terminator, but to have the choice.

I want to travel. Maybe I'll end up living in Norway, making cakes.

I am a dreamer. Seriously, I'm living on another planet.

I have my own style and don't really follow fashion, but I like leggings. They're easy to wear and can go with anything.

Don't be ashamed of who you are, embrace who you are.

I'm not really involved with politics... I'm living in my cocoon with my classical music around.

I don't believe in awards. It's very good for the ego, I suppose.

I have Algerian, Turkish, Swedish, Spanish blood: I feel like a citizen of the world. Life and cinema don't have borders.

Hmm, limelight... No, I'm not Sienna Miller or Angelina Jolie. I'm very lucky and happy, but I still find it very difficult to get good scripts and good roles. It's really a jungle out there.

People have a way of thinking that everything is finished when the very best of all may yet be in store.

Jesus is happy to come with us, as truth is happy to be spoken, as life to be lived, as light to be lit, as love is to be loved, as joy to be given, as peace to be spread.

I like live audiences, with real people - virtual reality is no substitute.

I'm a lot more observational than personal in my writing. My writing is mostly a lot of questions without answers.

Experience has taught me that manufacturers are now as necessary to our independence as to our comfort.
