I took my $100,000 and bought a new Corvette, a lot of cocaine, and spent the rest on foolishness.

Be real about what you do. Stay true to the voice inside you. Don't let the 'business' change what it is you love because the people, the fans, respond to what is heartfelt. They can always tell when a singer is faking it.

Different people have their ways of measuring success, maybe it's not the right way but wrong's what I do best.

There's nothing prettier in the world than a melody. I can get lost in a song with a melody.

If drinking don't kill me, her memory will.

Loneliness is lessened when you're lonely by choice.

You can shut out the world. But you always have to stop, and the world is always waiting when you do.

You can't put this possum in a cage

Walk through this world with me, go where I go. Share all your dreams with me, for I love you so.

I've had a lot of practice and wrong's what I do best.

I took my $100,000 and bought a new Corvette, a lot of cocaine, and spent the rest on foolishness.

The only thing different between sinners and saints is one is forgiven and the other ain't.

There are questions I'm still not wise enough to answer, just wise enough to no longer ask.

I have an intense obsession with making films. I not only love to make films, I perhaps need to make films.

I grew up in a small town about 40 miles outside London, but it was a fairly cosmopolitan household.

I can't believe I've been doing it so long. In the last three or four years, I've slowed down. I'm doing only the roles I really want to do.

I am a great lover of art, in many forms: paintings, objets, textiles. I don't have the talent for painting, but I have a very good sense of colour, a love of visual beauty.

I was never any good in the school theatrical productions. I always got a role like the March Hare.

My looks are changing obviously, so I fuss like any woman if I look tired or whatever, I put on weight and blah, blah. But some part of me is very relaxed with it all.
