My life is very full; my wife makes it so. I'm 82 years old and I'm having the best time I've ever had in my life. I want to share that with all of you. Find a way to do that, find a way to be at peace with yourself, to enjoy the little things in life. Make them your own.

That so many people respond to me is fabulous. It is like having a kind of Alzheimer's disease, where everyone knows you and you don't know anyone.

Everywhere I go in the world, people know me and recognise me and really show affection for me.

Art is an emotional experience

I can't sit around and wait for the telephone to ring.

I used to be good friends with my depression, saying oh I'm so depressed, or life is terrible.

The service meant so much to me. You don't know privileged I feel and how lucky I am to have served.
