My concentration span is truly that of a gnat. Some people have this ladder, and that's all there is - the ladder. I have the ladder, too, but there's a building around it with scaffolding, and lots of windows for me to peek into. Then suddenly I'll remember, 'Oh, there's the ladder. I should be concentrating on that.' Natascha McElhone

I first met my husband when I was 15. He was very cool, in a band, all that kind of thing, but he took a long time to grow up.
