I feel there should have been some recognition of the Spice Girls at this year's 25th anniversary. We flew the flag for Britain around the globe in the 1990s and we achieved a hell of a lot.

Everybody in life is a chameleon.

Being in the Spice Girls was an insane experience.

This is me. Take it or leave it.

Give it your best shot, have a good time and if it doesn't work at least you tried!

Some things weren't designed to understand.

I don't think I'm a great singer myself. I'm all right. I've worked with different writers, different producers... I've just been blessed with the caliber of people I've been able to work with.

I know I'm not a great singer. But I love to sing and I like to use my voice in different ways.

Every field and flower fades, but love is infinite.

Everybody starts with a clean slate only altered by unnecessary hate.

I love being onstage and I love to perform. To be honest with you, I'm more comfortable performing than I am in an everyday situation, which I can't quite explain.

Tighten your grip, make me bleed, it's a hunger I need to feed. Strip me bare, pull my hair, I don't care just take me there.

Courage without conscience is a wild beast.

There are many things that are unbelievable. Especially before breakfast, is it not? That is what one of your classics says. Six impossible things before breakfast.

It is not enough to understand the natural world; the point is to defend and preserve it.

I do seem to favor a deathbed confession as the occasion for my dramatic monologues.

I think writing is really a process of communication. . . . It's the sense of being in contact with people who are part of a particular audience that really makes a difference to me in writing.

India's fortune will depend on how many runs the little champion scores. There is no doubt Tendulkar is the real thing.

Dry August and warm, Doth harvest no harm.

Film is not the art of scholars, but of illiterates.

All the poet can do today is warn. That is why true Poets must be truthful.
