We had an interesting thing at that first dinner. It was prior to the availability of several new hotels in Los Angeles and we were more or less committed to the old Ambassador Hotel that has the famous Coconut Grove.

At each of these northern posts there were interesting experiences in store for me as one who had read all the books of northern travel and dreamed for half a lifetime of the north and that was - almost daily meeting with famous men.

'Howard the Duck!' That's a really interesting movie. I appreciate my career because I've had a lot of very interesting ups and downs and most people... That movie is such a famous flop. In a land of a lot of flops it's kind of awesome to be in a really famous flop. I mean it's kind of a poster child for flops.

I really had little interest in becoming famous. When I write my book it will be my guide to avoid becoming a rock star.

I just don't feel much interested in the lifestyles of the rich and famous.

I don't like being recognised I have no interest in being famous at all I just do what I do. If I could be like Captain Kirk and beam myself up and then beam myself down I would!

I feel very strong as an individual but as a famous footballer I know I am prone to certain things. All the media have a continuous interest for me. It varies from once a year to every day interest.

Don't worry about writing a book or getting famous or making money. Just lead an interesting life.

It is more interesting to be compared to someone famous because it lets you gauge what perceptions people have about your appearance.

It wasn't glamorous in my day. In the regions reporters were seen as such low life that they didn't merit their name in the Radio Times. Now people are interested in being famous. I never gave it a thought.
