Obviously, education is hugely important, along with healthcare. They're the basics and you're hurting your own country if you don't pour money into them.

Every moment of living has its own logic, its own meaning.

Acting has always been such escapism for me.

It's lovely to work with a group of actors who make you laugh and smile.

When it comes to my work, I'm fearless. I go with my gut.

I need someone who understands an artist's mentality. I couldn't be with someone who wouldn't let me have my freedom.

I'd love to work on a real girl piece with some fabulous actresses. I feel like I've worked with so many men.

I don't want to be doing fashion shoots and being interviewed about where I shop. Who cares?

I think when you're an actor and you're drawing on your emotions all the time, you need to be quite steady.

The reason I act is because I'm trying to understand why people are as they are.

I'd prefer to go under the radar and just do the acting without being famous for it.

If you want a sense of purpose for experiencing pressures, use your knowledge of Jesus Christ's comforting, enlivening, energizing presence to be a comfort to others.

Cheerfulness is contagious but don't wait to catch it from others. Be a carrier.

The cure is in the house, not brought by other hands from distant places, but by its own, in agony and blood.

Overly focused, it's far from the time to rest now. Debates growin bout who they think is the best now

Friends are a recompense for all the woes of the darkest pages of life.

My drive is something that I don't fully understand.

I like the fact that I'm involved in a career that gives me so many different mediums to perform in.

I have two pairs of eyes – one to paint and one to take photographs.

And I am in retirement from love.

Men have died from time to time, and worms have eaten them, but not for love.
