There are three hundred and sixty-four days when you might get un-birthday presents and only one for birthday presents you know.

Presents don't really mean much to me. I don't want to sound mawkish but - it was the realization that I have a great many people in my life who really love me and who I really love.

My mum is my beauty icon because she represents what I think beauty is.

I was amazed and upset by the looks I got just walking around the studio... It illuminates the ugliness and the beauty that exists within each of us and that's what this story represents to me.

My mother she had a very good attitude toward money. I'm very grateful for the fact that we had to learn to save. I used to get like 50 pence a week and I'd save it for like five months. And then I'd spend it on Christmas presents. I'd save up like eight pounds. It's nothing but we did that.

I'd like to introduce someone who has just come into my life. I've admired him for 35 years. He's someone who represents integrity honesty art and on top of that stuff I'm actually sleeping with him.

A great city whose image dwells in the memory of man is the type of some great idea. Rome represents conquest Faith hovers over the towers of Jerusalem and Athens embodies the pre-eminent quality of the antique world Art.

Beautiful music is the art of the prophets that can calm the agitations of the soul it is one of the most magnificent and delightful presents God has given us.
