I need to give affection and love, because without that, I wither. I need to give that love to someone. Without that, I'm rudderless.

Everyone has a family tree; the Dawsons have one, it's a weeping willow.

How can you analyse what is funny? What's funny to one isn't funny to another... What's funny to you is a personal thing.

The wife's Mother said, ‘When you're dead, I'll dance in your grave.’ I said: ‘Good, I'm being buried at sea’.

Marriage is an institution and that's where a couple finishes up.

Funny thing how you first meet the woman that you marry. I first met the wife in a tunnel of love. She was digging it.

Slumps don't bother me.
