1 Age

  • 1. I think love can happen at any age… it has no age.
  • 2. At my age the only problem is with remembering names. When I call everyone darling it has damn all to do with passionately adoring them but I know I'm safe calling them that. Although of course I adore them too.
  • 3. Working on the 'Ice Age' movies I'm really proud to be in them.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I think being on a TV show is amazing but also people get kind of used to seeing you a certain way and so it becomes a challenge to break free from that in a way.
  • 2. With most British actors it's amazing. I think they start with the character on the outside and work in.
  • 3. In our relationship we don't have that situation. I don't require what he needs and he doesn't require what I need. I know what I do I have an amazing life that nobody knows about.

3 Anger

  • 1. For every minute you remain angry you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind.
  • 2. Wise anger is like fire from a flint: there is great ado to get it out and when it does come it is out again immediately.
  • 3. And we know there has been horrendous loss of life and suffering and we know that there is anger. Anyone who came anywhere near the general election in constituencies with a substantial Muslim population knows that.

4 Anniversary

  • 2. Experts on romance say for a happy marriage there has to be more than a passionate love. For a lasting union they insist there must be a genuine liking for each other. Which in my book is a good definition for friendship.
  • 3. Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years.

5 Architecture

  • 1. I would fix other people's lines if they asked me on occasion. The hard part of writing is the architecture of it getting the story and structuring it. Not the tweaking of lines.
  • 2. Winning a competition in architecture is a ticket to oblivion. It's just an idea. Ninety-nine per cent never get built.
  • 3. Architecture is the reaching out for the truth.
