I like the best of the British press. The best of the British press is very good.

John Major

I feel like not all press is good press. Sometimes personal things can be released, and... that's not good press.

Cher Lloyd

The press is like any business. Its a group of really intelligent individuals that ends up being one slathering, one-eyed, drooling monster.

Sometimes the British press is maybe a little bit racist.

Vincent Tan

A lot of the time, the British press make me ashamed and embarrassed to be British. They give others the impression that the British are selfish, envious and bitter people, which is simply not true in my opinion. I think that British people in general are really nice and friendly.

Melanie Chisholm

The British press hate a winner who's British. They don't like any British man to have balls as big as a cow's like I have.

Nigel Benn

If you read the 'Daily Mail,' you would imagine that the British middle classes lead lives of unremitting misery.

Simon Hoggart

I don't want to make it a hard, fast rule, but it's surprising how many 'fun for the whole family' acts are real scumbags. The people that confess they're scumbags on stage are generally really great people. They're more honest with the audience with who they are.

The British are the last national group who can be insulted by Hollywood without any comeback. These days if you depict Italians as gangsters, Saudis as terrorists or Mexicans as violent drug dealers you'll never hear the end of it. But as still the largest - and possibly the richest - ethnic group in the States, the British just have to take it.

Simon Hoggart

The trouble with tea is that originally it was quite a good drink. So a group of the most eminent British scientists put their heads together and made complicated biological experiments to find a way of spoiling it. To the eternal glory of British science, their labour bore fruit.

George Mikes

I used to think that the British press were particularly awful to Cherie Blair. I think Blair's foreign policy was a complete disaster, but the British press, when they wanted to explain why Blair took unexpected moves, they did create Cherie as the power behind the throne.

Mary Beard

Were you to read the British press today, you would learn that the British Empire never forgets its defeats.

Robert Trout

I've had much nastier things said about me in the British press than in the Bosnian press.

Paddy Ashdown

When I do a press roll, I use the traditional grip. Sometimes I flip it around; for a louder crack on the two and four, I use the new grip.

John Densmore

Sanctification is not to be understood here as a separation from ordinary use or consecration to some special use, although this meaning is often present in Scripture, sometimes referring to outward and sometimes to inward or effectual separation.
