I couldn't possibly have played someone with feelings towards a woman unless I had those feelings myself.

I like to put perfume on my pulse points, but I also love the way you can sense it - there is an atmosphere that comes from releasing a scent in to the world - it's a primal thing. I spray around me, not just on me, and it lingers in the room after I leave.

People talk about the golden age of Hollywood because of how women were lit then. You could be Joan Crawford and Bette Davis and work well into your 50s, because you were lit and made into a goddess. Now, with everything being sort of gritty, women have this sense of their use-by date.

Things present themselves to you, and it's how you choose to deal with them that reveals who you are. We all say a lot of things, don't we, about who we are and how we think. But in the end it's your actions, how you respond to circumstance that reveals your character.

Look, I live in the modern world as much as anyone else.
Cate Blanchett
Image
I look at someone's face and I see the work before I see the person. I personally don't think people look better when they do it they just look different.

I'm not sitting on a soapbox telling women what they should and shouldn't do, but I know what works for me.

I love those moments on stage, on screen and in life when you dispense with language, when you sort of transcend it in a way, and certainly the experience of falling in love, I think, defies words, which is why poets, painters, musicians, actors have tried to describe that feeling, writers have just tried to put words to that.

I think marriage is all about timing. Getting married is insanity I mean, it's a risk - who knows if you're going to be together forever? But you both say, 'We're going to take this chance, in the same spirit.

I think referendums are fantastic as long as the question is phrased in a way which is not meant to deliberately confuse or confound people.
