QUOTES "I was
a housewife when I was 16, so I am a bit of a homemaker. I'd like to think that, when I am
very old, I will have a lovely garden and tend to it every day. My mother was always very
anti doing the housework, but I'm from the school of doing what you enjoy. I love knitting
and sewing, and I cook and clean and everything; I really do enjoy it." "You
know when you're on an aeroplane, and they tell you to put the oxygen mask on yourself
before your child? Well, I never understood that before, but now I do. The thing is, if
you don't take care of yourself, you can't look after the child. And I think that's a
metaphor for why I don't want to talk about my private life; I have to keep the oxygen
mask on to protect others." When I get drunk, I get
drunk, there's no doubt about it. Vodka by the bottle. That's the kind of culture I come
from. We don't sip drink, we fucking drink it. You go all the way, otherwise you're a
wimp. It has a lot to do with the weather. You're always either very sober or very drunk.
There's no room for the in-between stuff. I used to love drinking during the blizzards in
Iceland. You'd dress really well and run between bars getting really pissed on slammers.
Slammers are the best drink when there's blizzards. Then, we'd go out and roll in the
snow. I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss all that.
