Contemplation: I read a lot of books on philosophy and religion, and try to keep always growing in that part of my life, because without having a spiritual grounding, I think you can get really swayed by the winds of all the praise or the criticism it's all very, kind of, up and down. Try to stay up and focused.

I feel like theatre gives me the grounding, and keeps me alive, basically. Film gives me the thrill, and it's like a one night stand. But I do enjoy being around people who love it so much.

Although religion was around me my whole life I never felt it was forced upon me. It is my centring, my grounding, the soul of me. I feel I'm nothing without it.

What happens [in a coma] is that you lose the grounding of the self, you no longer have access to any feeling of your own existence.

Coming from a working-class background, where my father did manual labor, was a good grounding I was obsessed with getting a job or getting out of the house at 15.
