I'm quadracontinental. I've got a life in London, New York, L.A. and Hawaii.

I'm not Irish. Just because I have red hair doesn't mean I'm a lucky charm, you know?

My first car was in 2006 when I got on my first TV show - a BMW 328i2 four-door sedan in slate grey. That was a great day, that was.

All I do is watch TV and films, and when I'm not doing that, I'm making them. I need a hobby!

You know I hate watching myself on TV, I know a lot of actors say that, but it's true for me.

It's a blessing to be paid to be in paradise. The Hawaiian people are so friendly.

I'm incredibly cheesy. I'm all about happy endings and all of that.

I do accents. Sometimes when I've had a few drinks, I speak in different accents all night long, and then at the end of an evening someone will say to me, 'Seriously, where are you from?'

I never did any sports at school. It wasn't until I moved to America, to New York, when I was about 20 that I actually thought that if I wanted to be an actress I might have to start working out.

Actors who say they don't watch TV are stupid. I was raised by TV! And it's how I research for auditions.

I'm such a fan girl when it comes to movies, TV and sci-fi, sometimes I can't believe I actually get to be in them.

The deep root of failure in our lives is to think, 'Oh how useless and powerless I am.' It is essential to think strongly and forcefully, 'I can do it,' without boasting or fretting.

The easier things are to buy, the more we consume.

I have a terrific pain in the back of my head.

As in the instances of alchemy, astrology, witchcraft, and other such popular creeds, political economy, has a plausible idea at the root of it.

Let soldiers on manoeuvres plant trees. Give police and criminals a shovel and a thousand seedlings.

I never go to the cinema. I can't stand sitting in the dark with strangers -- all of us obliged to share the same emotional experiences -- it's too intimate. I like to be emotional in private.

Wolf! Right here and now!

If you say hard things you must expect to hear them in return.

One day I woke up and discovered that I was in love with tripe.
