Quotes: I can only go places because I know that I can go away from them, if that makes sense. I like the gypsy lifestyle that filming affords. <br /> <hr> Edinburgh is so cultural and such a beautiful place to walk around. <br /> <hr> Everybody has many people inside of them; I think we tend to present the one we feel is most appropriate at first, in order to gain acceptance or achieve what we want. It gets really interesting when this technique fails, and other levels are revealed. <br /> <hr> I like Scottish people because they feel very true. They're always level and straight. They get a reputation for being hardened because of it, but I find them to be scrupulously honest people. <br /> <hr> I don't really use the Internet or the newspapers to find out about people.
