The more you build your life on principle and less on personality - yours or others - the straighter will be your course.

I was a very studious student and usually got A's. I did not like school, because I wasn't popular - I was a nerd.

I didn't have any qualifications when I left school - I had three O-levels.

I've never professed to be anything but an average student.

I'm embarrassed to admit that I didn't even do my A-levels.

I was always a good student. I wasn't the A-plus student, but I studied really hard, and I probably had a 3.2. I always wished that I had the capacity to get straight A's, but I didn't. I didn't beat myself up about it, but I really studied hard for my grades.

If you're naturally kind, you attract a lot of people you don't like.

What you become is what counts.

I've worked very hard at understanding myself, learning to be assertive. I'm past the point where I worry about people liking me.

I'd like people to understand that I do have some personality.
