In fact, in many ways my mother was quite hippy-dippy, serving macrobiotic food and reading 'Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.'
From Kristin Scott Thomas
It takes a long time to appreciate one's parents.
You have to think about whether that Mercedes-Benz you have is actually worth how much it costs to you.
I've realised that I am who I am and that is it. Like it or lump it. I'm not around to please anyone any more, and it's a huge relief.
After a long time with someone, you realise you've been thinking for two.
I was very lost as a teenager. Which is a horrible way to feel.
I am sure that, had I grown up with both parents, had I grown up in a safe environment, had I grown up with a feeling of safety rather than danger, I would not be the way I am.
I was terrible at school.
I tend to do things that I'm very frightened of. That's what I do.
I'm not used to being asked what I want to talk about. That's why I'm an actress. Get told what to do, stand on the mark, say your words, wear this, look this way, look that way.
