I love London. I know it's an old saying but there's always something to do, so much so that when you live here you end up not actually doing much!

We always need to create and re-create but if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Goodness transcends badness.

If someone came up with a new idea for a pantomime that worked, then that would be great but we shouldn't step away from Jack and the Beanstalk, Aladdin or Mother Goose.

We all have our own areas where we are gifted or where we struggle and that's at the heart of everyone's journey.

Like a heartbeat. Something inside me. Some dream. I think it's being a dreamer as a child. Dreamy kids become actors, don't they?

Nature is really important because it's a manifestation of love that hasn't been run through human minds.

Just as a very little fresh water is blown away by a storm of wind and dust, in like manner the good deeds, that we think we do in this life, are overwhelmed by the multitude of evils.

I know that there'll be a continuation of making the world more accessible for people with disabilities.

My three P's would be pray, pray first. Second, prepare, and then persist.
