And I like the look on people's faces when I say I'm doing this movie called Pride and Prejudice and they kind of smile, and then I say I'm in a movie called Doom and they kind of do a double take and try and put the two things together. And they never quite manage to.

I've been doing Pride and Prejudice all summer, so suddenly the chance to be holed up with a bunch of marines is quite attractive, and probably a necessary dose of male energy.

It's something that I am going over in my head about the whole video game thing, and whether you support violence by being in a film like this. I mean, to me, it's incredibly unreal and it's all about the action, and just explosions.

The response to Pride has been so overwhelming. I mean, people have really loved it. And it's so rewarding because we had such a fun time making that film, and it was made with so much heart, that it's lovely that people seem to be responding in kind to that.

I've got friends who are pyrotechnics who do big fire shows, so I'm really fascinated by that.

I think you tend to try, during the time you've got off, to forget about the film. It was such a total world. I mean, the sets were claustrophobic, and as soon as you were on there, you were right back into it.

Nothing can teach you what it's like to work on a film set, and the best education there can be for an actor is to walk up the street and observe human nature.

I'd really love to live in New York for awhile. That's what I'm hoping to do.

I think, you know, as an actor we get these terribly sort of pretentious ideas in our heads. We try to take everything very seriously at first, you know, until we lighten up, we get onboard, and have a laugh.

You can certainly keep a low public profile if you want to.

The job of an actor is the same in all of them, really. I mean, you're just creating a character that you hope people will believe, so it doesn't make that much of a difference really.

It was in New York, and I've always wanted to film in New York. And the writer was a teenage friend of mine. We did youth theatre together when we were 16 and always had a dream of making a film together. And ten years later, we've done it. So it's great.

I'm probably not going to play a junkie and that's OK because there are other people who will do it better.

And I like the look on people's faces when I say I'm doing this movie called Pride and Prejudice and they kind of smile, and then I say I'm in a movie called Doom and they kind of do a double take and try and put the two things together. And they never quite manage to.

In the original computer game of Doom, you not only have to kill things. You have to pulverise them.

Anger is not an accepted thing for women. And, you know, I do get angry. I feel it's a very honest emotion.

I do know that the key to anything good is feeling relaxed and free. That's the main thing that you can offer yourself as an actor.

I look my best when I'm totally free, on holiday, walking on the beach.

I saw a lot of operas from backstage and watched a lot of rehearsals - my parents were singers.

I think I was lucky in that I wasn't one of those girls who are told they are pretty the whole time. I never got that. Nor did I ever obsess about my looks as a teenager.

I think when you are an only child, parents are more protective and fearful because they've only got one of you. I was not allowed to do a lot of things that, if I'd been, say, number three, I would have.

I'd like people to get a sense of who I am, yet I want to keep my privacy, too.

I'd like to do Nicole Diver in F. Scott Fitzgerald's 'Tender Is the Night,' if that ever gets made.

If you told my 13-year-old self that one day I'd be talking about how Tom Cruise and I had good chemistry, she'd think you were completely mad.

It is interesting to break all the rules. I'm not married, I have a baby, and it feels infinitely more right.

Looking back, I just think I was a really average sort of girl.

What I find sexy is when someone's having fun and able to look right back at you.

You just never know who's going to have chemistry. You can put two of the sexiest people in the world together, and they could be completely flat.

I always have trouble remembering three things: faces, names, and - I can't remember what the third thing is.

There are mystically in our faces certain characters which carry in them the motto of our souls, wherein he that cannot read A, B, C may read our natures.

There was a time when people said, 'Jim, if you keep on making faces, your face will freeze like that.' Now they just say, 'Pay him!'

Waste no time with revolutions that do not remove the causes of your complaints but simply change the faces of those in charge.

After a certain number of years, our faces become our biographies.

My sisters said, Why do you make those faces? You make yourself so ugly.

We must act swiftly in order to halt the rate of decay our planet faces.

Since Social Security faces a large gap between what it promises younger workers and what it can afford to pay them, private savings will likely need to play a larger role in retirement planning for younger workers.

The reason there are so few female politicians is that it is too much trouble to put makeup on two faces.

I thought I was benefiting the Indians as well as the government, by taking them all over the United States, and giving them a correct idea of the customs, life, etc., of the pale faces, so that when they returned to their people they could make known all they had seen.

There is only one woman in the world. One woman, with many faces.

Japan is dealing us a dead hand. For two years we have watched the Japanese drag their feet and we can't let them continue to slam the door in our faces.

My yesterdays walk with me. They keep step, they are gray faces that peer over my shoulder.

It's very schizophrenic because I like a lot of very straight pop, like Small Faces, Stones, Kinks; and on the other hand, I like a lot of avant garde things.

We, the generation that faces the next century, can add the solemn injunction "If we don't do the impossible, we shall be faced with the unthinkable."

I have had playmates, I have had companions; In my days of childhood, in my joyful school days - All, all are gone, the old familiar faces.

I have always loved to sit in ferry and railroad stations and watch the people, to walk on crowded streets, just walk along among the people, and see their faces, to be among people on street cars and trains and boats.

Life has loveliness to sell, all beautiful and splendid things, blue waves whitened on a cliff, soaring fire that sways and sings, and children's faces looking up, holding wonder like a cup.

The faces in New York remind me of people who played a game and lost.

All that remains is the faces and the names of the wives and the sons and the daughters.

I think I'm a million different faces.
