It's more important what you leave to people on this planet. I want my legacy to exist now, currently, not after I'm gone.

I have a life beyond performance. I love it, and it probably is the better part of my life, but I do have another life.

This really blew my mind, the fact that me, an over fed, long haired, leaping gnome, should be the star of a Hollywood movie.

I'm really still a child of the Forties. I still think about it a lot, about the repercussions of armed conflict. Until 1953 we had rationing. We couldn't buy meat, we couldn't buy pleasurable goods like cigarettes and sweets. I didn't starve - my family were lucky - but I knew what it was like standing in line waiting for foodstuffs.

There are so many times in one's life, when one feels he has nothing more to offer. But no, my river has not run dry.

In a nut shell, air travel is the worst part about touring.
