The first thing you have to do is accept that decay sets in and there's nothing you can do about it.
Thank God we're not like America. Everyone wants to look like they're 20. In Europe we admire grown-up women; I think men revere older women.
Everything has changed. An interview has become such a confrontational thing. It makes you very defensive.
Eat well and sleep well. That will feed your nervous system and your psyche. As you get older, you look how you feel.
There is not enough celebration of companionship. Relationships aren't just about eroticism and sexuality.
I'm one of the great unemployed looking for the next job. I'm waiting for the right offer. Like anyone, I want something that turns me on inside.
I maintain the rather old-fashioned view that this is my work and it's in the public arena, but that doesn't entitle everyone to know what happened at home before coming here.
I am not going to share my private life with millions of people. I don't find a need to do that and nobody else close to me does either.

I have yet to see a drama that puts forward women who are successful and also have a family... they are nearly always seen as victims.
I was asked to be in Vogue but I said no. I didn't want to advertise make-up. I didn't want to be seen as a sex symbol.
I'm often asked if I regret not going to Hollywood. I'm glad I didn't go, because if I had I wouldn't have my extended family, which is the fabric of my life. Only recently have I realised how special and unusual it is.
I've never been married and I've no more desire to be married now than I ever have. I hate bureaucracy and I am not religious.
Sometimes sushi is just superb, and other times there's nothing like a great big steak. It depends where your taste buds are at the time.
The thing about doing anything artificial to your hair is that you have to look after it. So you're always vulnerable to the weather and time.
