There's really no such thing as the agony of dying. I'm quite sure that pain is shut off at the moment of death. You see something happens when the body knows it's about to go. Peptide hormones are released by cells in the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. Endorphins. They attach themselves to the cells responsible for feeling pain.

Judged by the law of England I know this crime entails upon me the penalty of death but the history of Ireland explains that crime and justifies it.

My mortal foe can no ways wish me a greater harm than England's hate neither should death be less welcome unto me than such a mishap betide me.

I learned to change my accent in England your accent identifies you very strongly with a class and I did not want to be held back.

Like sex in Victorian England the reality of Big Business today is our big dirty secret.

I think the best place to work in football is England.

Often the roles I'm offered in England are melancholic women who are filled with regret for the past regret for their fading beauty.

I like England more than I did when I left. It's become a bit of a better country in the last ten years in the attitude of it. A bit more Americanized which is both good and bad. At least when you order a cup of coffee they don't give you a hard time.

I went to England in the '70s and I was in my early 20s. There was still a residue of that era of being an underclass or colonial. I assume it must have been a more aggressive and prominent attitude 40 years before that because Australia internationally wasn't regarded as having much cultural value. We were a country full of sheep and convicts.

Well I've always thought that my career was in England really. I used to do more in the theatre and I felt that I should be there. It's not far is it? It's amazing the way that special FX have taken a quantum leap in what they're capable of doing.
