Last year my boyfriend gave me a painting - a very personal one. I really prefer personal gifts or ones made by someone for me. Except diamonds. That's the exception to the rule.

I can set up shop anywhere. I've got my oils, I've got my yoga mat and I'm good to go. I must know good yoga classes in about 25 cities on this planet.

I was equally in love with singing and acting from an early age.

In some movies you feel like you're a very small part of a huge machine. Whereas in the theater you can have a very small part, but you can still feel the weight and the gravity of it. Given the nature of theater, it's a more concentrated and quiet experience.

But I love filmmaking - I'm not ashamed of that. You're sort of vilified if you say that in England.

You do a James Bond film, you're being part of an anachronism, a tradition.

Anyone who has that weird volition to become an actor probably has a weird volition to do lots of other creative things - to write, to play music, to paint, to cook.

I swear to God, I would marry the first person who asked me, just because it seems so completely impossible that anyone would ask.

You can never be guaranteed good roles because of an award, but I think your profile and net worth as a performer has to do with awards, unfortunately.

I like the theater enormously, but I truly love films - the whole bizarre, boring process that it can be.

People go 'You look a lot like Minnie Driver.' Once I said, 'Thanks, Minnie is a great actress.' But, it blew up in my face. This person said, 'Nah, didn't like the last movie she did.'

Singing is my dream and, while it may have not been a commercial success, critically I was thrilled with the reception my first album got.

I really fancy Harrison Ford. I've got to say I think he's really divine. He's, like, an older man, I guess, although he's not really that old, obviously. I don't want to offend him.

Celebrity is a weird appendage, which is useless unless you do something with it.

Babies are endlessly fascinating to look at and I'm obsessed about their complete and utter lack of guile.

I don't know how you would live in the world of Angelina Jolie or Jennifer Aniston and being stalked. It's just brutal.

I really believe in the characters I play.

I want a regular pay cheque.

I wouldn't change a thing about what I've done in the past because what may have been bad choices have all led me to this moment.

I'm fascinated by how much we, as women, have to subjugate and hide ourselves in order to get on in the world.

I'm never going to be comfortable being squished into a box, and that's why it's been weird in Hollywood, they don't know what to do with me, because I can play the game up to a point, but then I can't at all.

I've always been pretty nomadic.

I've been a musician longer than I've been an actor.

I've never felt that I had to take a role in one of those mediocre but hugely budgeted romantic comedies because I want to wear beautiful dresses and have people think I'm pretty and that I get the guy.

My 20s were a completely and utterly different time in my life.

What part of people is resistant to an artist doing more than one thing? Is it somehow perceived as greedy? Anyone who has that weird volition to become an actor probably has a weird volition to do lots of other creative things - to write, to play music, to paint, to cook.

I didn't have a boyfriend until I was 17. There were boys at school that I would find out later had a crush on me but I was too shy to talk to them.

I'm working on just finding a boyfriend right now.

As a little kid I had a girlfriend, and her boyfriend used to beat me up, so then I used to sing these songs, and that's what it's all about. Country music is all about your heart and your people and things like that.

I love photography. My boyfriend's got a great camera, which I bought for his birthday.

The average Hollywood film star's ambition is to be admired by an American, courted by an Italian, married to an Englishman and have a French boyfriend.

I think if I could have a boyfriend like my brothers I'd be really happy. But without the brother thing.

My marriage is on the rocks again, yeah, my wife just broke up with her boyfriend.

Save a boyfriend for a rainy day - and another, in case it doesn't rain.

I crashed my boyfriend's birthday when I was 12 years old. He didn't invite me and so I showed up.

The guys in my band are great-we watch movies, we eat pizza, take walks, read books. Everybody has a really great sense of humor. And my boyfriend comes and visits me on the road.

The reality is, Jennifer and I can do our job well because we truly are friends. But when the day's over, she goes home to her boyfriend and I go home to a magazine.

A friend will tell you she saw your old boyfriend - and he's a priest.

I just broke up with my boyfriend, and I've been spending more time alone than I'd like.

I think there's something incredibly sexy about a woman wearing her boyfriend's T-shirt and underwear.

I definitely have a family. I have a boyfriend who has kids, and we do normal things every day, like get up and go to school. Eat breakfast, lunch and dinner.

I love being with my family, my friends, and my boyfriend.

Right now I'm pretty single... My career is my boyfriend.

Otherwise, I spend a lot of time at my boyfriend's home in the country, in New Jersey.

Every time we had a raid, I'd get a boyfriend out of it.

I felt little awkward about taking one boyfriend to see a film starring another boyfriend.

Do not just look at your boyfriend as just a boyfriend. Look at him as a friend, too.

West Hollywood is predominantly gay, so every man that came into the grocery store was shopping for his boyfriend.
