To be conquered by yourself is of all things most shameful and vile.
We have made too much of one or two people, and we think that they can win or lose elections for us. Don't be depressed if one particular person transgresses. It doesn't lose an election unless the Party loses faith in itself.
I regret that I wasn't more successful with my marriages, but it is what it is.
I wish I'd done better for England. I only played three Tests and three One Day internationals. You have to take your chances and, for whatever reason, I didn't.
Some of what is being said about me is untrue or mischaracterized, but there is enough truth in these stories to make me feel embarrassed and ashamed. I regret that my shame is now shared by the people I cherish dearly.

I am the least qualified person to comment on anyone playing the role of Batman since I so terribly destroyed the part.
The thing I like about baseball is that it's one-on-one. You stand up there alone, and if you make a mistake, it's your mistake. If you hit a home run, it's your home run.
Fail at love, and the other tests don't matter.
I had everything working my way, strong as a bull. And still I ignored the rules of the game of life.
