british-actress dance heart love sing

I look forward to growing old and wise and audacious.

To counter-balance the natural humility of motherhood, I garden ... In the garden, more than any place, I really feel successful.

passion important want
To have something which one particularly wants to do is more important than anything else. It is even more important than succeeding in that thing you want to do. In fact it does not matter if you fail, but it does matter that you do or do not want to do something.
sex thinking laughing
[On being asked, 'Did you ever say that an actress needs to be able to laugh and to cry and that when you need to laugh you think of your sex life and when you need to cry you think of your sex life?':] No.
coats needs vegan
Nobody really needs a mink coat... Except the mink.
