That Was The Good Thing About Having

Contact Lenses Make Me Miserable, As Soon As I Put Them In. That's What Creates The Pouting And Brooding Character.

I Haven't Found One Place In The World Yet Where I Could Disappear.

I Think 26 Is The Turning Point. I’ve Got To Make Up For 10 Years Of Living Like A Degenerate. I’ve Suddenly Become Conscious Of Being Unhealthy. You’ve Spent Every Bit Of Free Time Since [the Age Of ] 15 In A Pub. And Suddenly You’re Like, ‘oh God, I Don’t Want To Be This Grey Ghost Sitting There With A Pot Belly. I’ve Got To Get It Together.

If I Were A Place, The Area Of South Bank, In London. Between The Hayward Gallery, National Theatre And All Other Activities, I'm Never Bored. I Would Also Say New York For The Breathtaking Skyline Formed By The Buildings And The Fast Pace Of The City, Whatever The Time Of Day.

When I Was 17 Until, I Don't Know, 20, I Had This Massive, Baseless Confidence. This Very Clear Idea Of Myself And How I Would Achieve Success, Which Involved Making Decisions. I Saw Myself Picking Up The Phone And Saying 'absolutely Not' Or 'definitely Yes.' Having Control. Except You Have To Figure Out Whether The Way You Think At 19 Or 20 Has Any Value. And Eventually I Understood, With All That Control, Which Was Probably Illusory, I Wasn't Progressing. So Now I'm Relinquishing A Bit. I'll Be A Tiny Bit Naked.
