Bruce Forsyth Thinking Quotations

When you've been brought up in variety, I think timing is always important in your life. If I'm ever late for anything, whether it's personal or business, I always apologise. 'I'm sorry I'm late,' and all that. And if somebody is late meeting me, I expect them to say 'I'm sorry I'm late.' It's just, shall we say, showbiz etiquette of my day.

It may be an old cliche, but I think true love will last; it has no end. But finding the right person is a very difficult thing.

People think I am the crazy person on stage, but I know how to relax.

On stage, I think I'm 35. Working takes over my whole body and I become a younger man - that's why I won't stop.

People think I rush around all day long like a raving lunatic. I'm much more relaxed than that.

Some people hate the sight of me as soon as they see me on television. They loathe the look of me, and I accept that from the days of variety. I would walk on and some people would open a newspaper and think, 'He's first on, so he can't be any good.' I accept that.
