Onscreen, Babies And Animals Are My Inspiration.

I Love Theatre - It's Where I Started - And I've Directed A Play Myself. I'm Not Sure If I Want To Direct A Film, But Certainly, As An Actress, I'm Always Thinking, 'surely This Must Be My Last Film.'

I've An Enormous Respect For My Mother Who At The Age Of 39 Raised Three Children, And I Grew Up With My Grandmother In The Household. And So It Was A Really Strong Household Of Women - My Poor Brother! It Was Great Growing Up With So Many Generations Of Women.

Mind The Gap - It's The Distance Between Life As You Dream It And Life As It Is.

Audiences Want To See Them, And In Fact, They Earn Money. The World Is Round, People.

I Think You're Peripatetic When You Work In This Industry. My Husband And I Are Assuming The Role Of Co-artistic Directors At The Sydney Theatre Company In 2008. But As Long As The Film Industry Will Have Me, I Will Have It.
