Some people hate the sight of me as soon as they see me on television. They loathe the look of me, and I accept that from the days of variety. I would walk on and some people would open a newspaper and think, 'He's first on, so he can't be any good.' I accept that.

Not working is bad for you. It is my drug, it gives me a high; most performers will tell you that. And there is nothing like the high that an audience gives you.

I can tell by the way somebody walks if they can dance or not. Just by the rhythm.

My holidays are very important. Mind you, I take a very long one every year.

Nice to see you, to see you nice

I have no plans to rock myself to sleep in my bath chair yet.

People think I am the crazy person on stage, but I know how to relax.
