I was in Yorkshire. We were a family of five and I used to be sent sometimes to get the rations for the week and was easily able to carry them back. It was like one egg and a tiny bit of tea.

Work certainly does help fill a void.

Anything that we can do to improve the lives of elderly people is welcome so far as I am concerned.

It takes courage to recognize the real as opposed to the convenient.

The only real failure is the failure to try.

I am so thrilled to be nominated for something I loved working on every single day.

I think you should take your job seriously, but not yourself - that is the best combination.
