I never wanted to run a production company. I didn't want to convert my life into running a business.... so I always resisted it and kept things simple.

More quotes by Anne Robinson
I'm not going to marry a third time. It is just not necessary.
Anne Robinson
Property is my major investment. My accountant has put money into various long-term savings arrangements. To be honest, I am a bit vague about all that stuff.
Anne Robinson
I don't like the anonymity of the banking process - people now don't have a bank manager they ever meet.
Anne Robinson
I was thrilled when a designer shop assistant said I was a size smaller than Madonna!

In her memoir, Anne Robinson recounts the wake-up call which motivated her to stop drinking. Leaving her eight-year-old daughter alone in their car while she went to buy liquor, she returned to find her daughter with tears running down her cheeks. The guilt and horror Ms. Robinson felt at this sight jolted her into sobriety.

In 2001 Steve Staunton became the record cap holder for which country? Brazil.
Anne Robinson
I think that in a family some are workers some are not. I certainly saw my mother work very hard and be in charge and never show any kind of fear about business deals. Her golden rule was you should never be embarrassed talking about money and asking for what you deserved. I take the same view.
Anne Robinson
I do have a rule that very few meetings are worth more than ten minutes.

I saw George Bush at a benefit concert actually waving at Stevie Wonder. Someone had to tell him, 'He can't see you.'
Anne Robinson
I like to look put together without trying too hard. I don't want to look as if God's made another rainbow - I prefer muted, autumnal colours, like most fading redheads.
Anne Robinson
Sad old blokes, I'm told, now dream of me with a whip in hand.
Anne Robinson
I like one nice man because he gets three tickets for the cinema so we've got somewhere to put our coats. He passes the test. I've been quite surprised because I really didn't expect to be wined and dined, and it's quite nice.
Anne Robinson
Believe me, I've done my time travelling the world in cramped conditions and carrying my own luggage. Now my leisure is summers in the south of France or the Hamptons, walking in Connemara, and year-round shopping in Manhattan and Paris.
Anne Robinson
I am dating, but it is hard to find someone quick enough and funny enough. I am quite demanding.
Anne Robinson
In an ideal world, I'd be able to do my shows in my pajamas. Luckily I've got one of the best stylists in the business, Rebecca Allen - she knows what looks good on camera and gives it a sexy kick.
Anne Robinson
When I was about 17, I had a row with my mother and left home for six months, renting a flat and working as a waitress for a while. I learnt you could double your earnings if you gave good, cheerful service. It taught me that in any job you can improve your lot.
Anne Robinson
I have never, for a single moment, been aware of pressure from anyone in television about how I dress, what my shape is or how I speak. I've always written my own scripts. I've always been the first to point out that I need to be fit. I need to look good.
Anne Robinson
Every couple needs glue to stay together. Like all marriages, I suspect, if you're busy you don't see it coming until you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube. It's a bit like going broke. It happens slowly and then very quickly.
Anne Robinson
I don't despise, because no-one should live rent-free inside your head.
Anne Robinson
My accountant regularly asks to take me to lunch. I always say I can't afford it.
