I like to get things going. I get so many different ideas, whether it's film, TV, whatever.
Don’t do drugs, don’t have sex, and don’t touch your eyebrows.
I'm really old-fashioned. An Epsom salt bath, that's genuinely better than any massage.
The calibre of TV's changing. It's becoming much more epic. To rival film, definitely.
My dad took me for an audition once, to show me, OK, you want to be a child actor, this is what its like. I sang a folk song about donkeys on this West End stage with this big director, and there was a queue of 200 girls all singing Memory. I was terrible. Terrible.
I grew up around horses, but acting and riding on camera is a whole different thing.
I looked around one stage school when I was maybe nine. It just scared the bejesus out of me. I was incredibly open, and the girls seemed fierce and determined.
People everywhere are about the same, but. . . it did seem that in a small town, where evil is harder to accomplish, where opportunities for privacy are scarcer, that people can invent more of it in other people's names. Because that was all it required: that idea, that single idle word blown from mind to mind.
When there's deflation, it means that although most markets are shrinking and people have less to spend, the 1% that hold the 99% in debt are getting all the growth in wealth and income. Deflation means that income is being transferred to the 1%, that is, to the creditors and property owners.
Bless you, daugher of man.
The point of public relations slogans like "Support Our Troops" is that they don't mean anything. . . that's the whole point of good propaganda. You want to create a slogan that nobody is going to be against and I suppose everybody will be for, because nobody knows what it means, because it doesn't mean anything. But its crucial value is that it diverts your attention from a question that does mean something, do you support our policy? And that's the one you're not allowed to talk about.
