I think my understanding of different types of love has certainly deepened.
From Cate Blanchett
I remember the first film I did, the lead actor would, in between scenes, be reading a newspaper or sleeping and I'd think, 'How can you do that?' But it's so exhausting, you can't be 'on' 12-14 hours a day.
I don't like to reduce a role to fit me. The challenge to me is to expand to it. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. But that's the challenge of it.
I haven't got many anecdotes. Maybe I should do something scandalous.
People had always vaguely mentioned that when you have children, how part of your life would stop. But they don't say that some other extraordinary part of your life opens up.
Before having children, I think I probably approached work very differently, and you become much more economical and pragmatic about your relationship to it.
I find that the skills and the muscularity required to be on stage, you need to keep those up - I do, personally, in order to maintain your ability to perform on screen. You don't want to always be working in the one medium.
It took me a long time to get comfortable with the idea of being photographed by a moving or still camera.
I feel very comfortable - literally and metaphorically - in my skin.
I'm a much healthier person through my relationship with my husband. I've become a more fulfilled person - it's a great partnership.
