Helena Bonham Carter Quotes:
  • "She has been seeing him for the last two 1/2 weeks. It is a baby relationship. They're taking baby steps."
  • "I'd love the chance to act and sing at the same time. A role in one of the classic musicals would be great. I'm always singing to myself, and not just in the bath."
  • "I could play 5,000 drug addicts and I'd still be known as Mrs Corset Queen."
  • "I spent the last six months being an ape and I actually started thinking that people preferred me as an ape. But the Maxim spread is as far as I go - there's no way I'd ever strip off completely."
