People think I rush around all day long like a raving lunatic. I'm much more relaxed than that.
Bruce Forsyth
The secret to a happy marriage is if you can be at peace with someone within four walls, if you are content because the one you love is near to you, either upstairs or downstairs, or in the same room, and you feel that warmth that you don't find very often, then that is what love is all about.

Bruce Forsyth
No one - apart from my agent, perhaps - should leave one of my shows in tears.
Bruce Forsyth
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.
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
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.
Bruce Forsyth
That Mick Jagger, I feel sorry for him. After all these years he still can't get no satisfaction.
Bruce Forsyth
I am not doddery... doddery I am not!
Bruce Forsyth
Nice to see you, to see you nice
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
I'm not even really a joke-teller. I can do ad-lib and banter, but I don't do jokes.
Bruce Forsyth
I read a lot when I'm away. I love courtroom dramas and I'm always looking for new authors.
