Of course I care about my looks. Everybody want to look good, and so do I. But on TV I don't care how I look. That I'm not pretty makes me more free. I can't do anything about that fact anyway. I think that makes me more concentrated and sincere, because I never worry if I look good on camera.

In some countries I interviewed people who only answered the photographer, because he was a man. And in Bangladesh the Islamic fundamentalists wouldn't even shake my hand, because they looked upon me as un-pure. It was a great challenge trying to understand them.

When I'm not working I'm an apprehensive person. I lack confidence in so many areas that life gets complicated. Many years ago I was standing in the back of a bus and noticed an available seat up front. Before I could reach it someone took the seat. Then I thought: Now everyone has seen me starting to walk and will think "nope, she didn't get that seat" and then I felt embarrassed. So I continued to walk and get off the bus instead, even though it wasn't my stop. And then I had to stand there and wait for a new bus.
