More quotes by Bruce Forsyth
Golf is hugely important, as it keeps me going.
Bruce Forsyth
I don't do close-ups any more. I am better looking from the waist downwards.
Bruce Forsyth
I love getting on You Tube to look at the old comics. I am in my element seeing guys like Jack Benny and Phil Silvers give interviews.
Bruce Forsyth
Ambition can take the place of everything - even sex.
Bruce Forsyth
If I go out one night, I must stay in the next. It's the same with my golf. If I play one day, I don't play the next. I try to pace myself.
Bruce Forsyth
There are enough tears in any child's life we certainly don't need to add to them in the name of entertainment.
Bruce Forsyth
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.
Bruce Forsyth
If I couldn't move, I don't know what I would do. That would be terrifying for me I don't know how I'd cope with that.
Bruce Forsyth
I read a lot when I'm away. I love courtroom dramas and I'm always looking for new authors.
Bruce Forsyth
They do say, the smaller the feet, the better the dancer.
Bruce Forsyth
It's sad when you see most of your friends in the business gone, like Tommy Cooper, Frankie Howard, Eric Morecambe, Roy Castle, Les Dawson. They were very dear to me. You no longer have the chance to bump into them at a celebrity do.
Bruce Forsyth
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.
Bruce Forsyth
I have no plans to rock myself to sleep in my bath chair yet.
Bruce Forsyth
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.
Bruce Forsyth
Although I'm predominantly known for game-shows, I do prefer to be known as a performer.
Bruce Forsyth
That Mick Jagger, I feel sorry for him. After all these years he still can't get no satisfaction.
Bruce Forsyth
People think I rush around all day long like a raving lunatic. I'm much more relaxed than that.
Bruce Forsyth
I met my darling wife Wilnelia in 1980 when we were on the judging panel for the Miss World contest at the Royal Albert Hall. With two ex-wives and five daughters, I thought I wouldn't be involved with anyone for a long time - if ever. Winnie was so gorgeous, my jaw dropped - and it's a big jaw to drop.
Bruce Forsyth
When I married Wilnelia, one of the first things I wanted to know about Puerto Rico was the quality of the golf courses.
Bruce Forsyth
Once you've experienced the warmth of an audience, the achievement of getting your first laugh, and entertaining them, singing or playing piano, it just keeps it all going.
