I wish it were different, but my body clock wakes me up between 6:30 and 7:30 a.m. I was even talking yesterday about how, if I want to get enough sleep, I have to be in bed at 10. That means I'm totally a grandma.

More quotes by Agyness Deyn
I don't think a name defines the core of who you are.
Agyness Deyn
Not just in modeling, but in society, there's so much pressure about what a woman should be, and, of course, it's just so unobtainable. You can never become that thing, because it's such a projection.
Agyness Deyn
If you have a connection to someone, it doesn't matter what their exterior is.
Agyness Deyn
I suppose each project is a new thing, so there's all this excitement and nerves about this new thing. Every single thing is like a new thing, so it's never what I expect. I don't know what to expect for the next thing. There are always different people. It's interesting.
Agyness Deyn
For modeling, I was always creating characters. I dress like a tomboy. So, when I'd go into a shoot, there'd be all these dresses, and I'd say to myself, 'Okay, this isn't me. It's somebody else. So, who is this person?' Acting is the next level of that.
Agyness Deyn
Being such a tomboy growing up, that was one thing that changed me as a person, as well. It broadened me, like me cracking myself open in a certain way.
Agyness Deyn
I can't do modeling disconnected. And I thought, What do I like? What do I love about modeling? And what I love is that it's such a creative process, with a bunch of people, and I wanted that more, which is how the acting thing came about.
Agyness Deyn
I've never had formal drama-school training I've just picked things up as I've gone along.
Agyness Deyn
I dont have that many friends.
Agyness Deyn
I definitely believe that love conquers all, yes.
Agyness Deyn
Everything about acting drives me and gives me the need to really try it. It's an evolution - doing the same thing for 12 years is kind of a chunk. Anyone would be up for a little bit of a change. It is so rewarding to do a movie, and so enjoyable. It's hard work, but really wonderful.
Agyness Deyn
I dress like a tomboy.
Agyness Deyn
I've always been really private about my personal life. I don't talk about it.
Agyness Deyn
I feel like every project that I've been doing, I've learned something about myself. It's like I've cracked something, or my vision of myself has gotten wider. I'm just learning and growing, and overcoming the fear.
Agyness Deyn
I love 'Breathless,' and 'Paris, Texas,' and 'Badlands.' I was obsessed with those films in my teens. I remember watching 'Badlands' and being amazed that there were these scenes in which nobody said anything and the silence told the whole story.
Agyness Deyn
You know, even though I'm in fashion, I don't, like, do fashion. Fashion isn't me, even though I work in it. It's just materialistic stuff. I just want to do whatever makes me happy...Like being totally conscious. Laughing is, like, my favorite thing to do. Being with friends, having fun...being a bit daft.
Agyness Deyn
I want to play positive role models - women who mean something to other women.
Agyness Deyn
I know I'm no Whitney Houston.
Agyness Deyn
I don't expect that because I was successful in one field that I will then get a ride of passage into another.
Agyness Deyn
To be supportive of myself, I have to go with what I want to do. I started acting and I was so mesmerized.
