I can't spend the rest of my life being pretty in a bonnet.

I'm fundamentally a busy person; I spend my time doing useful things and profoundly useless things!

My alter egos have changed a lot over the years. When I was a child, I was a black horse called Storm. Whinnying and jumping over bamboo poles in the garden took up pretty much my entire childhood.

Being uncool is being pretty much the coolest you can be.

I have a reputation for being pretty much of a wild man.

I don't want to spend the rest of my life giving speeches.
