I Listened To A Lot Of Tapes Of British Theatre Actresses And Tried To Learn From Them. As Americans, We Don't Have Such A Gift With Language.

When You Have Kids It's Nice To Have A Place Where They Can Always Return To And Some Place Where They Will Grow Up In, But I Never Had That. I'm Not Attached To Things And Places. I Like That We [the Family] Keep Moving. It's A Nomadic Life, And I Think That's A Great Life. I'm Excited When We Take Our Kids To A New Country And They Don't Just Immediately Look For The Comforts Of Home. They Blend Into That Country. Send Them To Any Place In The World And They Won't Be Scared. They'll Just Feel Like They Can Make Friends There.
