I am not leaving twitter. If the mindless few defeat the thoughtful majority we are all doomed.

Ooh, it's too embarrassing to share my innermost romantic secrets - although I have written Danielle the odd poem. If anything they are more comedic than romantic. They used to be well received but that was before she started studying Shakespeare at drama college. Now I feel so inept.
Gary Lineker
You can never really justify wages in the entertainment business, but it is what it is.
Gary Lineker
Every act of kindness is potent and lingers long in the heart of the recipient.
Gary Lineker
Messi doesn't have to do it in the Premier League to prove himself. The Champions League is the ultimate club competition. If he was in the Premier League, he'd be the best player by some distance.
Gary Lineker
I'm disappearing from twitter for a while. Need a break from the bile. Local prejudice just seems to bring out the worst in some people.
Gary Lineker
...an excellent player, but he [Ian Wright] does have a black side.
Gary Lineker
I was quite good at football once, although other than that my speciality would be maths. I'm great at sudokus and find all the spin-off games pretty easy too.
