I don't worry. I'm more stoical. Of course I have insecurities. I fear getting older. I fear death and illness. I'm not prone to depression, but I get depressed because everybody gets depressed. Suddenly I'm away from my family or doing a job I'm not enjoying.

I adore children. If I weren't an actor, I would be a teacher or work with small children in some way. I feel happy in their company.
