I like to drink to suit my location.

There's plenty for me to do. There are more albums. I'll record as long as I can and as long as my voice works as well as it does now and for as long as people want to hear me.

I have had some pretty wild nights! I think the media keeps a very close eye on what people are up to these days. I was out with George Clooney a few nights ago and we had a great time.

I like to drink to suit my location.

As for the music business itself, the key things have not changed that much. It operates like any business and money still keeps things moving.

I haven't become an American! Having a house in LA is just where the house is. It's just a convenience thing living there. I carry Wales around inside me. I'd consider moving back there one day. I never really left.

I love listening to new stuff, at home in LA I always have the radio on to hear what is happening.

Winning the Outstanding Contribution award is great, because you know you have won in advance. Previously, I have been really nervous during the ceremony because you have no idea if you are going to get called up on stage. This time I could relax and enjoy myself.

You can't be a sexy person unless you have something sexy to offer. With me, it's my voice: the way that I sing, the way I express myself when I sing.

I've always worn jewellery but for a time it went out of fashion. Like grungy and punk bands didn't wear jewellery because it was stupid.

Dean Martin always dressed very well but then he was a good looking fella with a good physique so he could wear anything.

First of all, I love singing. I mean, I get out of bed and I sing. I can't help it.

I come from a coal-mining, working-class background. My father was a coal miner.

I didn't have to play rugby that well, and I didn't have to play cricket that well, because I had this voice.

I didn't like to be restricted, because when you're in a choir, you have a part to sing and you sing it. I always liked singing on my own.

I got married when I was 16 so I had to do shift-work to make ends meet.

I have a weakness for watches. I have to stop myself buying more.

I think it's good that I had some experience of the real world before I became successful. You know, having to get up in the morning and going to work in construction.

I think the first time I ever wore a tuxedo was when I played at the Talk Of The Town in 1967, because it was a nightclub and that was the thing to do.

I'm a lyric man - I'm always looking for meaningful songs.

I've always felt myself as being a serious singer.

I've always liked to dance - I've got a natural rhythm.

I've tried wearing more than one ring on one hand and it doesn't look good. It's overkill, I think. So I think a ring on either hand. Nine times out of ten I'll go for pinky rings, but not always.

My real name was Thomas Jones Woodward, so I dropped the Woodward.

Oh yeah, I would have been a coal miner, I would think, if I hadn't had tuberculosis when I was 12.

So when I realised I could sing for a living - do what I loved and be paid for it - I thought, 'This is unbelievable. Unbelievable!' And that feeling has never left me.

Time is my enemy. Time will catch up with me vocally. And I dread that. I dread to think about life without singing.

When I started recording, I thought I'd be able to do all kinds of records: jazz, country, dance - and I've always wanted to do a gospel album.

I saw 'Sleeping Beauty' when I was, like, 6 years old at the Mercury Theatre. Then, when I came to Disney, I was in the company of these wonderful artists. People like Glen Keane, like Mark Henn, who were brilliant animators who could really bring these things to life.

Certainly the most diverse, if minor, pastime of literary life is the game of Find the Author.

If the United States loses the economic weapons of control, it is very much weakened.

I happen to take photographs, and they happen to be used for a lot of things, but they're not really made to order. They're paid for, but they're not made for order. I've never really done real commercial work.

Analysis does not set out to make pathological reactions impossible, but to give the patient's ego freedom to decide one way or another.

I have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.

I lived job-to-job before 'Magic Mike.' It certainly has meant a lot to me from a financial standpoint.

I had some wonderful times in my 20s, but your 20s are hard.

When preparing to climb a mountain - pack a light heart.

I really love my work, so wherever it takes me, I'm happy to be.

It seems to me we are now, since 1789, going through the same sort of process of regeneration the Roman world went through between 300 and 500. It is only to be hoped all civilization will not again be destroyed by the anarchists.

I dated dozens of young men, had fun with all, made commitments to none.

I like acting when I can pick my own roles, and I do. It's fun. I like being creative, and it's a creative process.

They wanted me to play more sports because they were acutely sensitive to their children being one hundred percent American, and they believed that all Americans played sports and loved sports.

I know that from the days of Watergate... the notion of two sources on a story has become the popular dogma about how you confirm something. And there is a lot of truth to that, but there are all kinds of ways to check to the extent that you can, a story that you get.

I think there are a lot of reasons to be critical of the media in America.

The family is the test of freedom; because the family is the only thing that the free man makes for himself and by himself.

I love the entire process of being on the set and being able to create a character. It's so much fun. In 'Think Like a Man,' I have a very small part. They told me it wasn't a big budget, but I don't care about any of that. I'll do it for free simply because I love being on the set with other creative people.

If you act scared, your body produces adrenaline.

Standardized sizes made inexpensive, off-the-rack garments economically feasible. They gave shoppers a reliable guide to finding clothes in self-service shops.

With Whitesnake it would have been inappropriate for me to have played Deep Purple songs, although I did at the beginning because I didn't have enough Whitesnake songs.
