David Jason Quotes

The whole sex symbol or babe thing doesn't bother me.

I think people are learning to actually aspire to be objectified.

With pop music and pop musicians, you know everything about everyone all the time, particularly their physical appearance. With female musicians, that's made a big thing of, and I think people, certainly with me, have appreciated a bit of mystery.
