You live a third of your life when you dream. So you may as well live in your dreams – the way you want to be living. The way you want to be.
I want to be in places I've never been before.
Deep down am I superstitious? No. Do I believe in trying to be as kind as possible and as compassionate as possible because ultimately you're alone with yourself and your own conscience, and you want that to be as clear as possible? That's not superstition. You have to just try and stay pure and know what you value.
I want to be tested beyond my comfort zone. I don't want to be safe if it is more interesting to be dangerous.
People can tell you what to do, but ultimately, we're all going to die, so how do you want to live?
I wouldn't want to be married to me, but luckily Tom Cruise does.
I just want to be nominated; beggars can't be choosers.
I want to go home at night and feel discomfort.
Honestly, people have said everything under the sun. I just want to do my work, raise my kids, and hopefully find somebody who I can share my life with again.
They've said I'm gay, they've said everyone is gay. I personally don't believe in doing huge lawsuits about that stuff. Tom does. That's what he wants to do, that's what he's going to do. You do not tell Tom what to do. He is a force to be reckoned with.
I have a little bit of a belly, a tiny bit of pooch. It's the one thing I don't want to lose. I just like having some softness. If I lose that, then Tom might leave me.
It was very natural for me to want to disappear into the theatre, I am really very shy.
I think particularly with this it's a theme that runs through a lot of my films which is the love a mother has for a child .
I thought I was doing a small play in an experimental theater, and I couldn't believe the reaction it got, ... I was so nervous the opening night, and then, once the play started, I thought, 'Just go for it.'
