I would say there is no Prada woman. I'm interested in women in general. I don't have any kind of preference.

For me, art is about learning and about living with people. It's alive.

My learning process is by eye alone; it's not at all scientific.

When I was younger, shopping helped me discover many new places and many new things.

I am ambitious and passionate and that in itself is drive. My work gives me happiness.

It's human nature: for most investors, the pain of stocks going down is more tangible than the joy of when they go up. The common impulse is to do something - anything - to minimise the pain.

The joy of my career is I've been very blessed to be able to be an actor in major films, television, theater, and also British radio. In fact, my dream as an actor when I started out was to be able to work in all the media. Thankfully, that's what I'm being given to do.

While television is a good servant, it's a bad master. It can swallow up huge quantities of our lives without much happiness bang for the buck.
