I never thought acting would be my life. I only started doing it because I needed something to occupy my weekends after I dislocated my knee and couldn't play sport.

I go out with a lot of British people. Some of them say I sound a little tipsy.

I don't want to scrounge around and be homeless, and I want to finish my education.

I find that you learn from others. It's very much about watching TV and watching movies for me and grasping that way and watching other people act.

I can run up a wall and do a back flip - that's the most impressive thing that I can do.

A school out of Canberra sends me a term's worth of work. I sit on the couch by myself and complete it and send it back.

I like to sleep. I like to do nothing. Nothing is my favorite kind of something.

I don't like concrete jungles.

I don't go for girls who have beach blond hair, that stereotypical girl thing. But, you know, whatever comes around.

I hate watching myself, as do a lot of actors.

I'm not really one for fancy, big words and poetry, and the scriptwriters worked very hard on 'Paradise Lost' to translate it.

Her death...brought me as nothing else could do to know and end my jealousy of God. It saved her faith from assault.

Enjoy what you have, cherish the good times and savour everything life presents you. We can’t change the past…However, the future is a blank canvas, waiting for the paint, go create a masterpiece.

Memory is a political act. Forgetfulness is the handmaiden of tyranny.

I must have flowers, always, and always.

In the business of war, the role of women is really to maintain normalcy and ensure that there is cultural continuity.

A banker who is allowed to borrow money at X and loan it out at X plus Y will just go crazy and do too much of it if the civilization doesn't have rules that prevent it.

I write the songs first and in most cases teach myself the technique second.

Was it harder to die, or harder to be the one who survived?

I never thought about extending the promotions. Maybe I've matured but I feel that a shorter and more powerful promotion is better.

Give me something that'll haunt me when you're not around.
