Granddad Quotes

My dad farmed, my granddad was a farmer. I wanted to be a farmer Picture Quote #1

When someone talks about Western films, you probably think of those old black and white cowboy films your granddad likes. But the Western is a wonderful genre because it is usually a story of a lone hero fighting against corruption in a dangerous world Picture Quote #1

My granddad was a hard worker, and my dad is, too. It was instilled in me as a kid. I never got pocket money; I had to earn it. I had two paper rounds before school, not just one. Wherever I worked, whether it was at football, in the pub, I’d do whatever was asked of me - and more Picture Quote #1

My granddad always said he wanted to make me an England player. As soon as I went on to that pitch against Portugal, I knew he could die a happy man because he’d achieved his aim in life Picture Quote #1

At 11, I went to live with my maternal nan and granddad temporarily, after my parents separated, and Nan would let me have a go on her piano. My grandparents were like something out of the Noel Coward play, ‘This Happy Breed,’ and it was magical to hear them sing music-hall songs Picture Quote #1

I vividly remember my first ‘Superman’ comic, which my granddad bought me when I was about 7. From that point on, all I wanted to do is draw comics. And specifically, superhero and science fiction comics. Basically I used to copy comic books, and draw my own comics on scrap paper Picture Quote #1

Many forms, sizes and colors, I think there are heroes in sports, in life... It would be cliché to say my dad, my granddad. I think I’m a fan of people who were brave, my aunt, my grandmother, those are my heroes Picture Quote #1
