I'm busy and that's the way I like it - when I have too much downtime I get into trouble.

I've got wealth and fame but I haven't changed my roots.

I have a stepladder. It's a very nice stepladder but it's sad that I never knew my real ladder.

British fans are exceptional, but the American fans are something else. Some of them fly 500 miles to stand in line for three hours, just to meet me, then when they do they collapse.
