I want somebody who's gonna need me.

We just say things differently in Australia - like torch. I'd ask, 'Can I have the torch?' It seems to fall flat when I say, 'Can I have the flashlight?'

Every first episode of a season has been crafted like another pilot.

I've found in my life that the parts that you're right for are the parts that you get. It's really usually quite easy because you're kind of right.

I live by the sea in Australia and the weather of course is glorious all year round.

I work in an industry where everyone is flawlessly beautiful, but I just want to be healthy.

I had a fantastic mother who taught me self-confidence.

To be really honest, I don't love the gym.

I am a sucker for jackets!

I don't feel like I've hit my stride. So I wonder what the moment will be when I get to be who I want to be.

I'm a huge camper, and love hiking and mountain biking.

I just adore Kate Winslet. I love her because you're never aware of all the stuff that's going into her characterization and, yet, she completely transforms.

Why can't a woman be a little cooler in her emotions and a little quieter and more repressed without it being a huge thing? I've actually always quite enjoyed that, to tell you the truth.

I feel good about who I am.

Everybody's funny if you love them.

'Fringe' is a sci-fi show. But once you go beyond the genre, you're immersed in a profound reality.

I love being physical, but I don't have any desire to prove myself.

I wear Blundstones for hiking. They're like a work boot with a bit of grip, so you can wear them all day. They're quite groovy.

Becoming a mother doesn't always change every aspect of your personality.

I've read only fiction, so I don't know anything actual.
