Quote

The whole point of your life, I think, is to give some chance to even one person. I don't want to end my life feeling I've only looked after myself, that everything I did was to protect myself. I want when I die to believe that I've achieved what I was supposed to achieve - that is, to help other people in whatever way I could.

On her car of choice: "I've always driven Golfs; this one runs really well. I know there are people who see their car as an extension of themselves; they need a car that says a lot about them. But I don't need a car to confirm my personality. I think this one says a lot about me.

On studying sociology and politics: "I wanted to do something that would give me an understanding of social policy and help me effect change in that area, something that was akin to nursing."

On not becoming a nurse: "That's still my biggest regret. I wanted that personal contact with people, the one-to-one, the medical expertise. I still do. But Bono's life had taken off in one direction and I realised that if I went into nursing, I was going to have to live-in for four very intensive years. It would have been too much on the relationship. I was always going to end up doing something. I suppose I'd prefer to be wandering up and down some hospital ward handing out medicine, feeling that I was contributing, but I don't have the experience, I don't have the training. I always wanted to be hands-on; it's about showing solidarity, about physically being with the people in some way, spending time with them - almost the same as you'd do as a nurse. And whatever comfort that brings them, then that's what it's about for me. It's the way I operate."

I've no desire to be a star. I see how hard it is, how cruel it is; how to be in that place you have to expose yourself, and how relentlessly cruel that can be to a person.
