father ideas tomatoes
My father belonged to a commune, and the food was ghastly. My idea of food hell is the salad cream they'd pour all over bits of lettuce, cucumber and tomato. It was just disgusting.
song years wonderful
Penitentiary songs have been a love of mine for years. They are so wonderful.
reputation loses
When you lose your reputation at 19, you lose everything.
drama school different
I thought I wanted to go to drama school or university, and that would have been a completely different life. But what got me was the sound, and hearing it. Hearing everything so loud, I loved that back in the studio. I loved that from the very beginning.
stars thinking want
I think you have to really, really want to be a film star.
paris london milk
The food that's never let me down in life is porridge, especially with milk and maple syrup, which is delicious. Paris isn't a porridge place, but I can buy it in London when I'm there and bring it back with me.
goes-on want
I'm having a great life, and I want to go on having one.
nice black tea
I serve black tea, which I call Froggy tea. And I have green teas and all sorts of nice teas. I'm serving tea all the time.
father horror said
I once asked my father what he wanted me to be. To my horror, he said, 'sociologist.'
beautiful looks saws
I never saw myself as beautiful. I can look back and see it now, but then? Never.
gigs gone stones
I love the Stones, but I've gone to a lot of gigs.
nice drawing levels
I live a very nice life. I have a wonderful time. But it's not lived drawing on a full level. I'm relaxed, cool, and enjoying it.
war wings empires
I come from a very left wing Socialist family, anti-war and anti-empire.
frightened ill
I am not frightened of much, but I wouldn't like to get ill.
