Famous quotes by Michael Parkinson:

"[But yesterday's tributes painted a portrait of a quiet, private man who never grew accustomed to the limelight that accompanied his success.] He was very shy, ... A man uneasy with the fame that came with the job. A man who liked to observe in the shade. He reminded me of Alec Guinness in that sense. But, my word, when he stood centre stage you'd better watch him."

"He was very shy, a man uneasy with the fame that came with the job."

"For me personally it is because I get an awful amount of success and I don't think I deserve it and then I want to sabotage it."

"I've been trying to get sober for the last four years, and I keep falling off and I keep getting back on,"

"a bloody good comedian and a lovely man."

"If the music industry has decided I'm influential, then that's their business, ... They tell me that's the case, but I think it would ruin an innocent mind if I were aware of that."

"I think life without Coronation Street would be unthinkable. It's part of all our lives."

"I finish every book I start."

"He's our biggest repository of useless knowledge. National Icon, National Treasure, and National Dustbin."

"Even now a team of linguists is at work translating Don Revie's writings on the game [of football] from the original gibberish into Arabic."

"I was a purist bore."

"Anybody who's been married to a man for forty odd years knows he's all talk."

"Confidence has a lot to do with interviewing - that, and timing."

"I'm very fond of piano players."

"There's no way you can create a chemistry where none exists."

"In my view a jazz musician is a great musician."

"It's not so much about what you ask as what you don't ask."
