I Believe In The Strength And Intelligence And Sensitivity Of Women. My Mother, My Sisters [they] Are Strong. My Mum Is A Strong Woman And I Love Her For It.

I Gave Myself Permission To Care, Because There Are A Lot Of People In This World Who Are Afraid Of Caring, Or Afraid Of Showing That They Care Because It's Uncool. It's Uncool To Have Passion.

It's Much Harder To Lose When You Show That You Care, But, You'll Never Win, Unless You Also Stand To Lose. Don't Be Afraid Of Your Passion.

I Was So Lucky Because What I Did In 'thor' Was I Built The Character From The Ground Up - The Foundations Of His Spirit, Really. He Was Someone Who Was Born With An Expectation That He Would One Day Be A King, Born With An Entitlement.
