Everything has to be organised for kids in London - you can't just walk three roads to see a friend.

The photoshoot glitz and TV studio make-up isn't the real me. I spend most days at home in Bristol in jeans and a T-shirt running around after the kids or shopping in the Co-op.

I cannot do the piece-of-talking-meat thing, the 'Here's your money, wear a pretty dress and take the cheque.' I'm not made that way. I have to be as good as I can be at whatever I do.

I would put belly laughing at the top of my highlights list. They always say that laughter is the best medicine.

I loved doing 'Countdown.' I now consider that I was very, very lucky - not just because it was such a wonderful show to do, but because it lasted for so long.

I was away a lot on 'Countdown' when the children were young and I couldn't have done it without Mum's help. Because she was at home running all of that, I never had to worry about them.

My bottom is so big it's got its own gravitational field.

My first marriage was totally unsuitable and shouldn't have happened. It was a whirlwind, rebound thing. I was 23 or 24 - a baby.

The first couple of days on the detox diet aren't pleasant.

I would never say never to marrying again but for the time being I'm having a great time.

I'd be happy to stay single now because I've always been in relationships. For the first time ever I can do what I want, when I want, with who I want, without answering to anyone.

It was wrong to want to touch a scar and call it beautiful.

I’m thinking of the protector who wants to be protected and a fighter who loves the right battle but will lay down her arms to go on a quest.

Accurate information is a key part of motivation.

Faith is, above all, openness; an act of trust in the unknown.

Democrats need to become a 50-state party. You can't have a great party on the West Coast and the East Coast. You need to have a party in all 50 states.

I ran for president to present the citizens of America. I am here to change the broken system so it serves their families and their communities well.

One is not low because of birth nor does birth make one holy. Deeds alone make one low, deeds alone make one holy.

No matter how close to yours another's steps have grown, in the end there is one dance you'll do alone.

Loneliness is the poverty of self; solitude is the richness of self.

Tis beauty truly blent, whose red and white Nature's own sweet and cunning hand laid on.
