I can do the equivalent of 150 miles per hour and not get stopped. I could quite happily pursue people down the motorway in my helicopter.

I didn't get my first car until I was 22. It was a BMW 1602 and now I've got it back I'm waiting to restore it.

Every now and again I need to get away from everything. I'm quite a hidey-hole kind of a guy.

I may be the prat in the hat, that's cool, but I drive an Aston Martin DB5.

The mid-life crisis is just those times when you're not so into the things you were when you were younger.

When I listen to Radio 1 and hear five different tracks in a row using old disco samples, well that's plagiarism, that's taking other people's music.

I like girls who like the countryside, put on walking boots and can bend with the wind a bit. If you're going to live with me, you need to be able to embrace the countryside and wet dogs.

Your private life is your private life and you keep it to yourself. You get more respect that way.

I think these days a lot of the younger generation feels that the world owes them something. But you've got to get off your backside and you've got to do all the crap stuff, too.

I am quite fussy about clothes.

If you want to catch your dreams, you have to drop your fears.

The absence of vices adds so little to the sum of one's virtues.

I love Simon Cowell, he's a dear friend.

From day one, my mantra has been - and will continue to be - that as a government we were there to serve the people, not the other way around.

We're all on a continuous journey to try and fix our mistakes and flaws. And, believe me, I've got plenty of them.

This use of advertising - to add a subjective value to the product - becomes increasingly important as the trends in our technology lead to competing products becoming more and more the same.

There's always male roles I want to play. I'm so annoyed when I watch movies and go, "That could have been played by a woman."

If I had cared about her as I should have, as I thought I did, how could I have let her go?

Faste knew better than to argue with a doctor, since they were the closest things to God's representatives here on Earth.

Everybody wants to be winners - you have to trust that God has a greater plan for this even when you can't see it.
