The greatest thing you can give a child is confidence.

I'm so bored of all these girls who have written about 20 books by the time they're 25.

I used to be pretty reckless. When I was a runner for a production company, I drove a massive 16 seater van. I was only 18. I mean I look young now, but then I looked about 12.

I have a naturally camp sensibility and a camp sense of humour. I love the icons that gay people love.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.
