I Spent My Life In The Library

I Am Often Asked Which Of My Films Has Come Closest To My Own Ideal Of Performance, And I Always Answer, 'educating Rita.'

Presenting The Oscars Was The Most Nerve-racking Job I Have Ever Done In Show Business. It's Very Much A Live Show: They Have Comedy Writers Waiting In The Wings, And As You Come Off Between Presentations, They Hand You An Appropriate Gag To Tell.

I Didn't Want To Come In The Movie Every So Often, Every 20 Minutes Saying, 'dinner Is Served, Would You Like Coffee?'

I've Got A Lot Of Back-up Because My Father Was A Catholic, My Mother Was A Protestant, I Was Educated By Jews And I'm Married To A Muslim. So I Won't Lose Out On A Technicality.

I Think Life Has Got To Develop As You Get Older, And I Don't Want To Be Wandering Along Doing The Same Old Thing. I Want More Out Of Life.
