Favourite Quotes

I go to the Natural History Museum and look at the cage of stuffed starlings there. But my favourite thing is the big blue whale. The scale of it is unbelievable, and makes you feel how insignificant you are as a human being Picture Quote #1

I’d love a signed first edition of ‘City of Glass’ by Paul Auster. My favourite book of all time Picture Quote #1

I never had a favourite book! I liked all kinds of things - science fiction, so I read Heinlen and Ray Bradbury, and I also liked reading about kids like myself, so I read Judy Blume and Norma Klein and Paula Danzinger and a lot of other writers. I also read James Herriot! Picture Quote #1

When you hear the words ‘magic’ and ‘story’, they will probably evoke thoughts of your favourite fairy tales from childhood. Storybook pages abound with all manner of magic: fantastical fairies, wish-granting genies, or even a certain boy wizard Picture Quote #1

My inbox and doormat are full with emails and letters from people who want me to endorse their Higgs board game or to inaugurate the walkway of their new office atrium. There’s even a microbrewery in Barcelona which wants to know what my favourite beer is so they can brew a similar one in my honour. It is quite mad Picture Quote #1

I’m tall with broad shoulders, and therefore, I like clothes with a bit of a swagger - mannish clothes that you can wear with a lot of feminine, sweet tops. I put my own looks together - a favourite coat, a bit of vintage, a bit of high street Picture Quote #1

In February 1991, I was rushed to the hospital in Los Angeles to have my feet amputated. Three years earlier, I had broken the national 100 meters hurdles record while a student at UCLA and was a favourite for the event at the 1988 Seoul Olympics Picture Quote #1

I watched ‘Billy Madison’ maybe 80 times. It’s my favourite movie. Watched it, like, a million times. My brother and sister watched it with me all the time Picture Quote #1

I love dressing up. As kids, my friends and I would dress up as the Spice Girls - Posh Spice was my favourite because I had short brown hair like her Picture Quote #1

I live in Cape Town but my favourite holiday destination is Hermanus, a little seaside town about a 90-minute drive away, over the pass and down to the sea, on the sunshine coast. It’s where I love to escape to with my wife for a weekend every now and again Picture Quote #1

My Favourite hobby is to sit still and convert oxygen into Carbon Dioxide. Love to Live Picture Quote #1

As a child, I was just never that interested in the lives of my favourite actors, like Cary Grant. I do wonder whether knowing too much about someone’s personal life interrupts an audience’s ability to suspend disbelief, to really invest in the characters. My preference would always be that people engage with the work Picture Quote #1

My style of dressing is extremely personal. I am impressionable only to a certain extent. The rest of it is my personal concoction consisting of my favourite trends Picture Quote #1

You can change your wife, your politics, your religion, but never, never can you change your favourite football team Picture Quote #1

She doesn’t know I cry for the changing times. That just as I reread favourite books, some small part of me hoping for a different ending, I find myself hoping against hope that the war will never come. That this time, somehow, it will leave us be Picture Quote #1

I love character and voice, and my favourite books have been the ones in which I’ve become completely absorbed Picture Quote #1

When I was at primary school, we had this theory that if you ate an egg, it meant you’d get pregnant and give birth to a chicken or another egg. It was something we dared together. I avoided eggs for years, but now they’re my favourite food Picture Quote #1

My favourite thing in the world is going out to get Chinese food, then coming home and renting a movie Picture Quote #1

People say the Beatles were John Lennon. What is Paul McCartney? Chopped liver? But everyone has their own favourite members whose creativity they gravitate to. That’s normal Picture Quote #1

I tried to emulate my favourite guitar players, the old bluesmen like Blind Willie McTell and Big Bill Broonzy. I used to sit by the record player and copy Chuck Berry and the Beatles. You can never copy someone completely, so you end up developing your own style Picture Quote #1

Barcelona is one of my favourite cities in the world. The fashion and people are just so effortlessly cool Picture Quote #1

My favourite city for nightlife is Toronto, as it has such a multicultural feel, with so many different restaurants and theatres Picture Quote #1

I absolutely love London; it is one of my favourite cities in the world Picture Quote #1

Actually, Sydney is my second favourite city on earth, I love Sydney, but this is the greatest Picture Quote #1

Gemmell’s name guarantees a satisfying story and a thumping good read. I recommend all his heroic creations - ‘Druss the axeman,’ ‘the Jerusalem man,’ among others - but my favourite has to be ‘Waylander’: Clint Eastwood with a crossbow and the same ‘Make my day, punk’ attitude Picture Quote #1

One of my favourite parts of acting is the clothes that you get to wear, because it’s very important Picture Quote #1

I always have my Laura Mercier foundation and concealer with me, and I love the Rimmel Kate Moss lipsticks. My favourite is shade 08, because it’s just such a lovely natural colour with just a bit of pink to it Picture Quote #1

I can play the flute. Music was my favourite A-level, and I used to love composing my and stylising my voice to sound like 90’s singing sensation Tori Amos Picture Quote #1

The computer is my favourite invention. I feel lucky to be part of the global village. I don’t mean to brag, but I’m so fast with technology. People think it all seems too much, but we’ll get used to it. I’m sure it all seemed too much when we were learning to walk Picture Quote #1

My favourite store? Seize Sur Vingt in New York. They make most of my suits, and they are really cool people Picture Quote #1
