I am greedy. Gwilym Lee Read Quote
Everybody doesn’t get to do each and every film. I don’t compete with others; I compete with myself. I have been an athlete, a sportsperson; so I know how to be competitive in a healthy way. Deepika Padukone Read Quote
If I had a super power, I’d want to be able to fly just so I could float around my apartment. Or I’d really like telekinesis because then you’d be able to slam the door on somebody. Nicole Maines Read Quote
