I'm happy to sacrifice a big pay cheque for my happiness, if that's not too corny a thing to say. It's probably more naive than mature to say that, maybe, but that's how I feel.

I want a regular pay cheque.

I spent my entire first pay cheque from 'Cracker,' a TV show on ABC, on an Audi because my other car broke down and I needed to get to work.

My parents were always living from pay cheque to pay cheque. They were always struggling.

I'm just shocked and thankful that I've gotten away with everything - experimenting here, trying at this, failing at that, being good in some things, not so good in others. It's kind of amazing that people are still sticking by me. When they come up to me in the street, I just want to write them all cheques.

Every job feels like my first.

I've looked after my money. As I started working around my third birthday, my first check went straight to the bank.

Money is a bonus of the job, but it doesn't always make you happy.

Now my only income is a few royalty cheques from my books.

The front of a cheque alone gives someone enough information to steal your identity.
