Perhaps because I never left England and went to America - I think the public sort of appreciated that. I visited and I did some shows over there, but I never had any ambitions to settle over there. I could never have left England.

Vera Lynn

I don't want anyone to think I don't love playing for England because playing for your country is the greatest thing a cricketer can do.

Moeen Ali

I love scoring goals for England and playing for England. That's one of the reasons I didn't retire - I love playing for my country.

David Beckham

England was always very special. It was so important because the reason Benny and I started writing was the Beatles. During the Sixties, England was everything. To be number one in England was more important than being number one in America because England set the tone.

Bjorn Ulvaeus

I left my country because I was forced to, and I do not think that I am going to lose my language because I live in England.

Guillermo Cabrera Infante

I left the Church of England because there was a huge bundle of straw. The ordination of women was the last straw, but it was only one of many. For years I had been disillusioned by the Church of England's compromising on everything. The Catholic Church doesn't care if something is unpopular.

Ann Widdecombe

I think - you know, the big trauma in my life, personally, was the fact that at 14, I was taken out of Poland unwittingly because my parents were divorced. Left the country - my mother left for England with her new husband. I wasn't even aware that she'd married him.

Pawel Pawlikowski

For me there's nothing better than putting the white shirt on for England and playing for England. I'd get worried if it wasn't like that.

Michael Owen

I left England when I was four because I found out I could never be King.

Bob Hope

I received a lot of criticism maybe because in England they are not accustomed to seeing a playmaker with my skills. Because I'm not a physical player but I think more about playing the ball.

Jorginho

It still boils down to one thing: The left cannot beat Fox News in the arena of cable news. The media, the left cannot beat Fox News. The only option they have is to destroy it. Because they can't outcompete it as is evidenced by ratings day in and day out since 1996, when Fox debuted. The standard operating procedure for the left is not to level the playing field but to close it. It's to deny participation on the playing field, not level it. No tolerance. No fairness.

Rush Limbaugh

I think with England, I look at myself and accept that I didn't do well enough; then, other times, I was playing my best football for United and England didn't happen.

Michael Carrick

I made my England debut when I was 17, against India. I was the first Asian to play for the England women's team, and I did have mixed feelings playing against the country my parents are from but I was born and bred in England and I've always known I wanted to play for my country.

Isa Guha

I've been living in England for a while, and I am still trying to figure out why we have Great Britain playing the Olympics together and England in football.

Vincent Kompany

I grew up in England at a time when England was winning Nobel Prizes right and left. I mean it was amazing how many Nobel Prizes England was winning in chemistry and physics and biology and all the sciences and at that time the teaching of science in the schools was really lousy.

Freeman Dyson
