The top 10 most inspiring quotes by David Jason
- I have a yellow labrador, Tuffy, and a little rescue dog, Bella, who is the boss.
- While scuba diving off the British Virgin Islands about 25 years ago, our boat’s anchor got stuck. I dived down to release it, but I got separated from the boat and was stranded as it sped away. I had to swim for an hour to the nearest island with all my scuba kit on before I was rescued.
- There are certain values that, in my opinion, television has lost – various moral lines. How far you go in, say, revealing what people get up to on reality TV, and also graphic violence and swearing – the taboo of various swear-words is no longer there. It’s worrying.
- I won’t let my daughter watch ‘EastEnders.’
- My mum, Olwen, was a bright and talkative woman who loved a gossip and a story and was given slightly to malapropisms. And she was Welsh, so, of course, she sang.
- I grew up in London, a city devastated by the bombing. I am, you might say, a Blitz Baby.
- I’m a twin, but only I emerged live from the womb. The fact that I was originally one half of a duo gave rise to a theory, much propounded in newspaper profiles, that my life has been one desperate effort to compensate for that stillborn brother.
- I enjoy life so much I don’t want it to end, and dying does worry me. If you’ve got faith, you believe that you’re going to go to a magic land, but unfortunately, I don’t have faith.
- In 1977, while I was performing in a play in Cardiff, a friend introduced me to a striking redhead called Myfanwy Talog, famed for her appearances on Welsh television with the comedy duo Rees and Ronnie. We were instantly smitten and eventually moved in together, sharing 18 happy years.
- I always say it is not the arrival; it is the journey.
