If the script's good, everything you need is in there. I just try and feel it, and do it honestly.

If I didn't have children I might be more of a lush than I am. I like booze. I struggle with smoking. And I'm a big swearer. I'm trying to rein it in but I do think it's a nice seasoning of language.

I'm not a pin-up, thankfully. I'm not suggesting I feel unconfident. I am beautiful to my husband. I am beautiful to my friends. I feel sexy and all those things with the people I love.

I feel fortunate that I'm not a beauty. I'm not a classic beauty. I feel it is harder for girls who are like that. There are fewer parts.

Everything with me is pretty close to the surface, but having kids has completely ruined my emotional equilibrium.

I always assumed I'd be a terribly patient mum but it turns out I'm not!

I love my job and I know I am very lucky but still, if you audition and you don't get it, it still affects you.

I don't like the bullying, do-one-over style of comedy. It's so cheap.

I always assumed I would leave drama school and do 'Lady Macbeth' and all sorts of serious things. It just didn't happen.

I had a lovely, feral, free childhood - out and then come back when you're hungry or it gets too dark. I feel slightly cruel that I'm not offering my children the same.

Show the world there's something to fight for. Your life is the proof that beauty can still be attained.

Sometimes I just crave to play in Shakespeare again and I know and love playing Orlando so much.

Think about yourself at least once in your life otherwise you may miss the best comedy in this world.

Prosperity Comes When You Do the Right Things with Your Life

If tolerance is taken to the point where it tolerates the destruction of those same principles that made tolerance possible in the first place, it becomes intolerable.

We [he and Halmos] share a philosophy about linear algebra: we think basis-free, we write basis-free , but when the chips are down we close the office door and compute with matrices like fury.

Tis heaven itself, that points out an hereafter, and intimates eternity to man.

Dweller in yon dungeon dark, Hangman of creation, mark! Who in widow weeds appears, Laden with unhonoured years, Noosing with care a bursting purse, Baited with many a deadly curse?

Yes, I adore the fact that girls like me.

Keep in mind that angels do not belong to any one religion; they go beyond a single religion. The angels represent the Divine energy of God.
