I never planned to become an actor.
Acting was something that I grew up just doing. I certainly never thought about it.
I can't say that I wanted to be an actress, it just happened along the way. I did not even know that I would be doing modelling but that also just happened.
I look back - I think I am an accidental actor.
So I was in America and I thought I'll stick around while I'm here and just see what happens. The next film I did was High Art, so I guess it started with a sort of vague idea but really just a fantasy.
People kind of stumble their way through life a lot of times.
I'm never going to rule anything out in life, because most of what I'm doing now, I never intended to do.
I didn't dream that I would become the CEO of the company when I joined as a systems marketing engineer back in 1995. Sometimes, I don't really reconcile to it; it's a bit of an odd sensation which is under the surface.
I fell into lyric writing because of music. I backed into it.
I was not in the race to become a chief minister. I had never thought about it.
I never thought I'd end up coaching. It wasn't the plan.
I never planned on being a plumber.
I moved to Manchester to join a band and ended up getting into acting, and I moved back to London to become an actor and ended up joining a band.
I didn't climb into that tree expecting to become a spokesperson.
When I got 'Family Ties', I wasn't even thinking about being an actress. I thought I might become a window dresser.
My career has been a level of serendipity all along. I've never planned anything out more than a few years. All the places we lived - the 12, 13 countries - and the companies I worked for were a combination of circumstances.
My journey to working on loneliness was certainly not an expected one or planned one.
I've never looked ahead very much in my life. I've never had any grand plan from the outset. I had no burning ambition to do what I do.
I sort of fell into acting.
I hadn't planned on being an activist.
My so-called career is a haphazard thing.
I was just 19 years old when I did my first film and had no plan to act, or to become an actor. It was like a paid holiday so that I could earn good pocket money and then party more with my friends.
College wasn't something I saw myself doing.
I honestly was supposed to always be a wrestler. I was never hired into any business as an announcer. That was just something I ended up falling into.
I'd never planned on being a model.
