I've made a career of taking roles that other actresses didn't want.

Being an actress isn't as fun as it may seem. If I don't love something, I stop doing it. I don't love acting anymore, so I've stopped doing it.

I always knew that the only thing I wanted to do was act, but it took me a long time to say it out loud to anyone, let alone myself. I am surprised by how dogged I have been in wanting to make a living as a respected actress.

I am not one of those actresses who loves acting.

Because I never set out to be an actress, I always feel so lucky and grateful. There are so many people who are really desperate to be stars, and it was completely the opposite for me - I fell into it.

I've been in showbusiness all my life, but as an actress I have never been overly driven.

As an actress, I learned a long time ago that there is a lot of this business that is just out of my hands. All I can really focus on is going to work every day and doing my best.

When I wanted to be an actress, I never wanted really to be the kind of actress I became.

I haven't ever felt I've had to divide my 'actress' life from the rest of my life.
