There's something really empowering about going, 'Hell, I can do this! I can do this all!' That's the wonderful thing about mothers, you can because you must, and you just DO.
I think that when you don't see the boundaries, you cross them without even knowing they exist in the first place.
I don't think you learn how to act. You learn how to use your emotions and feelings.
I accept my body. I accept how I am and make the best of what I am given. Children orientate towards examples. That's why I talk solely positive about my body in front of my daughter.
Mum and dad were very much friends, and up to life. There was no anxiety for anything when I was growing up, they just taught me to be me.
I'm often moved by the circumstances around some of my characters, but I don't think I've actually cried watching myself.
I've never understood the notion that actors and actresses should look great on-screen just because they're on-screen. That doesn't make sense to me.
I suffered from 'No one will ever fancy me!' syndrome, well into my teens. Even now I do not consider myself to be some kind of great, sexy beauty. Absolutely not.
I have just wanted to be an actress. That's always been my goal. I didn't want to be famous.
As a woman, especially when you have children, one gets so good at soldiering on - almost too good.

It doesn't make any sense... that's why I trust it!
I was the kid who never won the races. I never jumped the highest. I wasn't on the list of the high-achieving.
I am insecure. If you ask me, everybody is.
There's more to life than cheek bones.
If you're not still learning and growing as an actor, then you have no backbone and no career
I do think it's important for young women to know that magazine covers are retouched. People don't really look like that.
There are moments to indulge and enjoy, but I always know when it's time to go home and wash my knickers.
Having children just puts the whole world into perspective. Everything else just disappears.
