I was born in Paris, and it's a beautiful place, but London feels like home. I like the village feeling, I like running in the parks - even the food isn't as bad as it used to be.

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

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 need to fall in love with someone. Sorry - I mean fall in love with something. I need to wake myself up.

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.

There's a whole world all around more interesting, wonderful, terrifying, mysterious, amazing than any novel ever written. Pay attention. Take a chance. Dare life.

Do not risk your life for someone who doesn't care about you.

You will find your horizons expanding and your thought processes becoming more creative. That is true mind power!

I am a responsible parent and have always provided for my children. That fact cannot be disputed. I have made mistakes in my life, but failing to care for my children is not one of them.

Shah Rukh is as passionate and as enthusiastic as ever.

Once I start reading something, I can't stop. I obsessively read, which is a problem with long books!

Sometimes I start with lyrics - rarely - but sometimes I might have an idea for some lyrics that I wanna say. I write them down and figure out how to use that in a melody to write a song.

I had 13 weeks off and I would pack up the family and drive to some mountain retreat where we could be together and fish all day. I loved it. I needed it.

I learned English from American pros. That's why I speak so bad. I call it PGA English.

God spreads the heavens above us like great wings, And gives a little round of deeds and days.
