Famous quotes by Richard Griffiths:

"The scare has been there for a while now, and we have kept the consumer fully informed and we feel consumers have made an informed decision to keep on buying poultry."

"I instinctively knew it was a major opportunity, so there was a lot at stake. You get it wrong and you could lose everything. Eventually they said, 'Just quit moaning and do it'. And it's been wonderful."

"It was a succession of all of these pledge things from around the state that made us stop and say maybe we should try to get everybody on the same page about what the law says."

"Share prices of oil-service companies are at all-time highs."

"You only got 30 days of free speech in Montgomery County."

"It will take more work to see if infected animals can be taken out of the wild, cleaned up and released. At the moment, people are concentrating on keeping [the disease] out."

"I think there is great concern,"

"A spirit of cooperation has prevailed."

"Some of the boys have been growing things just for this show for the last six to nine months, and it's been a complete waste of time."

"Some actors don't mind it. Those who are pretty. They think it's nice to be looked at because they are nice to look at. I appreciate that. I'm very happy to salute that aspiration. But I don't like the way I look so I don't like being photographed. I become defensive."

"Every time I've talked about my family in the past, people have ended up getting upset. So I said to my friends and family: 'I shan't refer to you at all, and there's nothing for you to get upset about. There's the deal.'"

"What can I say? I deal with it. I think I have come to terms with my absolutely hateful and vile childhood. No, I have, really. But I did hate it at the time. I resented it. There were elements of it that were positively Dickensian."

"It's been the most astonishing year because I've been having a marvelous adventure, and yet I kind of sympathize with people who have to live in exile, because I've so missed England."

"I went from being a beanpole - like a normal kid of the 1950s - and exploded. The weight piled on and didn't stop until into my adulthood."

"Actors do have good and bad sides. It's because the passage down the birth canal distorts the face. People born by caesarean section are more symmetrical."

"I could never understand the attraction of Bette Davis. I always preferred Jane Russell."

"Some bloke came up to me in Tesco a couple of years ago at 11:30 pm and said: 'Excuse me, would you mind telling my son here that you're Uncle Vernon?' I said: 'Get a grip. It's 11:30 at night - what's he doing out of bed? I'm not here to entertain people at this time of night."

"I wouldn't inflict my naked body on any paying audience."

"My vanity is not remotely physical, it is cerebral. I suppose feeling self-conscious might be a form of vanity, though."
