I can't wait to be able to drive, but it's hard. Good driving doesn't really run in my family genes. My mother is possibly the worst driver ever.
As wonderful as charity is, that money runs out. It's not sustainable. It lasts for a certain period of time and it's gone. What i really think people need is the opportunity to help themselves.
Feminism is not here to dictate to you. It’s not prescriptive, it’s not dogmatic. All we are here to do is give you a choice. If you want to run for President, you can. If you don’t, that’s wonderful, too. I’m lucky I was raised to believe that my opinion at the dinner table was valuable. My mum and I spoke as loudly as my brothers.
If you want to run for Prime Minister, you can. If you don't, that's wonderful, too. Shave your armpits, don't shave them, wear flats one day, heels the next. These things are so irrelevant and surface to what it is all really about, and I wish people wouldn't get caught up in that. We want to empower women to do exactly what they want, to be true to themselves, to have the opportunities to develop.
I'm so close to her that I feel that I don't have to act any more. It seems like I'm barely doing anything sometimes. She turned into someone that a lot of people can identify with. She's a great role model.
I look OK and it becomes that amazing transformation which it really is for Hermione.
I loved doing it because I can relate to what she goes through. I so know that frustration where guys can be so insensitive....Hermione is so insecure about herself and she's never really had any attention from a guy before that when she sees Viktor looking at her it's like, 'Is that guy really looking at me?' ... She does not know what's happening to her and she gets caught up in this whirlwind.
There has been a lot of speculation abut whether we're going to outgrow our parts but it works out really well because each one takes about a year.
For goodness sake, Hermione and Ron just need to get it together! It's just been so long now!
It's absolutely amazing. I just can't believe it.
The only way I could tell the story was to intensify it, and shed anything that didn't serve that, ... It all flows very well, so you kind of forget what is actually missing.
Let's be honest, I have enough money to never have to work again.
I'm a very heady person; I'm in my head a lot.
I think the actresses who are really successful are the ones who are comfortable in their own skins and still look human.
