My dad went at 86. A car killed him. He was crossing the road.

Every three or four years, I'm hot again.

Omar Sharif and I spent nine months in the desert, day after day for nine months.
jobs tombstone blood
Many years ago I sent an old, beloved jacket to a cleaner, the Sycamore Cleaners. It was a leather jacket covered in Guinness and blood and marmalade, one of those jobs... and it came back with a little note pinned to it, and on the note it said, 'It distresses us to return work which is not perfect.' So that will do for me. That can go on my tombstone.
honor may arabia
There may be honor among thieves, but there's none in politicians.
book cutting artist
Everyone praises Sachin Tendulkar. He may be a genius in his own right but in my book, Rahul Dravid is the artist. Dravid's defence tactics, his strokes, his cuts, his grace are truly amazing. I'd like to meet the chap sometime and take my hat off to him.

Irish women are always carrying water on their heads, and always carrying their husbands home from pubs. Such things are the greatest posture-builders in the world.

I'm a professional and I'll do anything - a poetry reading, television, cinema, anything that allows me to act.
travel morning adventure
We were doing it under the most extraordinary circumstances, but the first out of the tent in the morning would be David Lean. He said to me on the very first day of shooting, Pete, this is the beginning of a great adventure.
