You write your life story by the choices you make. You never know if they have been a mistake. Those moments of decision are so difficult.

It was never my intention to marry anybody. Economics are basically the only reason to get married, but I'm very glad I did it.

Image
I'm not strong-willed actually. I'm a complete pushover. I love to be told what to do.
Helen Mirren
Image
There is that awful moment when you realize that you're falling in love. That should be the most joyful moment, and actually it's not. It's always a moment that's full of fear because you know, as night follows day, the joy is going to rapidly be followed by some pain or other. All the angst of a relationship.

I'd like to see a much more open Monarchy, myself. I used to think they were completely useless and we should get rid of them. I don't necessarily feel that way anymore. I'm still ambivalent, I still loathe the British class system, and the Royal family are the apex of the British class system.

I always love working with young actors, because there's always something to learn. It's always exciting to see the next generation and how they approach things and what's great about them and what's not so great about them.

I love photography and I love the art of photography. So when I'm working with high-level art photographers, I give them artistic freedom because I want that for myself when it's my turn to do my work and I never try and control it or say I'll only do this or I want it like that.

I still have a Gypsy sense of adventure. I don't think I have slept in the same bed for more than three or four months my whole life. I am always planting vegetables that I never get to eat and flowers that I never see flower. I have always moved around the world.

I'm terrified of learning lines, and I've always been terrified that I won't learn them.

When you're young and beautiful, you're paranoid and miserable.

The trick in life is learning how to deal with it.

People become more interesting from about 25 - they develop character and their personalities come out.

It seems to me that the years between eighteen and twenty-eight are the hardest, psychologically .

I resent having witnessed the survival of some very mediocre male actors and the professional demise of the very brilliant female ones.

I drink just as much tea when I'm in Los Angeles as I do when I'm in London. I take my tea bags with me wherever I go.

I'm not beautiful I clean up nice.

English actors feel vaguely apologetic for being there at all. American actors know that the most important thing is to get one take out of fifty that is great, and they'll go to any length to get it. The English are used to working within consistently small, low-budget things and think, I mustn't waste their time.

I don't get to play the same role over and over in different movies. The roles that I get to play are quite varied, which is great.

Any role that's proactive is a great role, and action roles are by their very nature proactive. You get to do stuff. I hate sitting in a corner - I'd much prefer an action role in a popcorn movie rather than pining in a corner not doing anything.
