I was quite a shy child - not chronically, but I tended to blend into the background.

Ben Whishaw

I was a chronically shy child. That kernel of my younger self is still there, but I've developed mechanisms to deal with it.

Richard Eyre

I remember being chronically shy. I came out of my shell a bit when I went to university, but I'm still fairly shy in company.

Ardal O'Hanlon

I'm not driven by fame or success. I'm quite a shy, introverted person, and I could easily melt away into the background.

Richard Ashcroft

I was shy as a child. Now I'm not really shy any more, unless I'm with shy people. I find it contagious and I don't know what to say. But I don't think shyness is something one should feel apologetic about.

Nigella Lawson

I was a very quiet, shy child. I just became quite talkative in high school, in Grade 10 onwards.

Catriona Gray

I was 26 when I went to my first acting class. I'm naturally quite shy. I'm a quite private person. There's this really strange acting class in New York called Black Nexxus. For someone who's slightly shy or self-conscious, it's the most frightening thing you can do.

Hannah Ware

I've had chronically bad stomach aches since I was a child.

Trudie Styler

I was quite shy as a child. My sisters were the gang leaders, my brothers were the enforcers and I was a tag-a-long.

Gregory Porter

My mother tells me I regaled people with stories but I don't remember that. And she disputes the idea that I might be chronically shy. She says I was the most outgoing of all of us.

Ardal O'Hanlon

Being chronically shy I needed to create a persona for myself and be involved with a band where I could be ruler of my own kingdom. Then Pulp became hugely popular and I lost control of it, which is when it all went wrong.

Jarvis Cocker

I was very shy as a girl. Absurdly shy, even. Maybe because I was an only child. And I think that's why I'm so happy to have two kids now.

Monica Bellucci

I was the family alien. Both my parents are quite creative, but I was... appalling... always putting on little shows. I was rather a shy child, not a natural performer, but there was a performative edge to everything I did.

Laura Wade

Despite being quite a shy kid, I was in my element with my mates. I definitely wasn't shy then. We had a lot of fun, running around town getting into mischief.

Adriano Zumbo

When I was doing 'Family Ties,' I was not quite that mellow as a real father. In fact, my wife used to call me Captain Von Trapp from 'The Sound of Music.' I tended to be a little more authoritarian. I had been a very disciplined child myself, so I made the mistake of thinking one size fits all.

Michael Gross

And I was very shy as a kid; if you sang me 'Happy Birthday,' I would cry. Quite shy. So the idea of being an actor, much less a model, was just out of this world.
