Famous Quotes & Sayings

Naomie Harris

Yes, I'm obsessed with health, which has been an interesting journey. I went down the raw-food diet route, but got ill.

I just ate lots of vegetables, exercised and breathed.

The only thing I won't watch is darts. And I don't watch cricket. How can you like a game that requires you to take four days off work to follow a Test? And I don't really like golf.
