I think women are scared of feeling powerful and strong and brave sometimes.
I get sent Bibles. I have a collection of about 20 in my room. People think I need to be guided.
Our society in general devalues the ‘she’ – qualities that are associated with the feminine that are found in all of us. As a result there’s this imbalance and this distortion and it’s hindering our progress.
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.
If I were going to be a princess, I would be a warrior princess.
I think I’m actually in denial that I’m famous, it only sinks in when people crowd in the streets. My friends treat me like a regular person, which is what I wanted.
If I’ve learned anything, it’s really just to stop trying to find answers and certainties.
We need female advocates. I’d love to live in a world where there are as many women in parliament as men.
Don’t think I’m going off to find myself though. I already know who I am.
If I’m feeling tired, I just say, ‘I’m going to paint my nails purple and put some lipstick on!’
I think it’s so much sexier to be understated. It’s more intriguing to be sexy in a less obvious way.
I can be 100 years old but I will always be proud to say I was in Harry Potter.
I love painting and have a need to do it.
I just try and surround myself, for the biggest proportion of time that I can, with people who make me feel normal, because constantly feeling abnormal is quite difficult.
I find the whole concept of being ‘sexy’ embarrassing and confusing.
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.
Being an actress, I find myself people-watching and I can be quite shy.
People associate feminism with hate – with man hate – and that’s really negative. I don’t think that’s what feminism is about at all – it’s really positive. I think that’s why women became reluctant to use the word.
Gender equality, historically has been predominantly a women’s movement for women. But I think the impact of gender inequality and how it’s affecting men hasn’t really been addressed.
There are so many scripts and they are fantastic. I think I would like to do something different, maybe something smaller.
