More quotes by Graham Norton
I am very quick to judge.
Graham Norton
Forty freaked me out. I didn't see it coming. My life was in a state of chaos - I was moving jobs and moving house - and it just hit me like a ton of bricks.
Graham Norton
Britain's such a twisted, weird little place.
Graham Norton
I'm often dating people, but I don't say it because you sort of know it won't last long.
Graham Norton
I have nothing to say about my childhood. It was a perfectly pleasant upbringing - it's not like it was unhappy or anything.
Graham Norton
The only time I took Ecstacy was years and years ago. It was absolutely amazing.
Graham Norton
I am really bad at actually interviewing people.
Graham Norton
Occasionally the state of the planet can knock me off my perky perch.
Graham Norton
It sounds deeply shallow, but for brief spells every member of the public can be fascinating.
Graham Norton
One of the great things about being gay and out is that the papers couldn't care less about your love life.
Graham Norton
I loved Lucille Ball growing up.
Graham Norton
I bet Maurice Gibb's heart monitor was singing the tune of Stayin' Alive.
Graham Norton
You don't want money to make you a social freak where you can only hang out with rich people.
Graham Norton
All these people I interview are worth ten times what I'm worth.
Graham Norton
All my interesting stories are from before I was on television. Nothing interesting has happened to me since then. Maybe it's because the most interesting thing in my life is the show and that's on telly.
Graham Norton
Basically, I'm a really bad interviewer. I love meeting celebrities, but then I get a bit bored. Once you meet them you thing, 'really, what an ordinary person'.
Graham Norton
If it was possible for me to adopt, I probably would, but no one's going to let me adopt.
Graham Norton
All my day is spent dealing with other people. When I come home I like it to be empty. The presence of others in my house kind of annoys me. I love coming home and shutting the doors. I feel brain dead. I'm relatively available, but not to live with.
Graham Norton
Because society places a value on masculinity, gay men aspire to it. If you go to a gay club and the doorman says, 'You do realise this is a gay club, don't you lads?' you get all excited because you think, 'Wow, he thought I was straight!'
Graham Norton
The BBC is a victim of its own independence.
