What makes me really happy is a walk in the English countryside. A nice sunset, that British countryside - it means I'm home.

Natalie Dormer

No man can honestly sit there and say he doesn't care about what people think, doesn't care if he's got the support of the British public or British fans.

Chris Eubank Jr.

I see people all the time today, and they really don't care if their doctor is of Pakistani origin; what they care about is that they are getting a good service, and these are people that they do really see as British. I do think society has changed very positively like that.

Sajid Javid

You do have this circumstance in Karachi that because people know things are changing, the stakes are higher. Everyone is thinking, "My home is threatened, my job is threatened, my identity is threatened, my world is threatened." And that creates a very particular sort of climate, that is linked.

Steve Inskeep

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

People get so frustrated with me, so much so that they've threatened me, they've threatened my family and it just cannot go on, it really can't.

Peter Molyneux

I wish people would take more care of the countryside.

Kevin Whately

I've covered a lot of the British countryside and the UK from top to bottom and side to side. It's such a pity more people don't appreciate what's on their doorstep.

Alan Titchmarsh

Our government, National and State, must be freed from the sinister influence or control of special interests. Exactly as the special interests of cotton and slavery threatened our political integrity before the Civil War, so now the great special business interests too often control and corrupt the men and methods of government for their own profit. We must drive the special interests out of politics.

Theodore Roosevelt

British people are surprised that I'm British! It's extraordinary, I get tweets every day from British people saying, 'I had no idea you were British.'

David Harewood

By all means, let's have free trade and no trade barriers and a common market. But where did it all suddenly become about our own economic and political destiny being surrendered to Brussels with agendas that arguably have very little to do with the interests of the British people and British voters?

Lloyd Dorfman

When the weather's good, there's no better place to be than the British countryside.

Ross Kemp

We are not in Afghanistan for the sake of the education policy in a broken 13th-century country. We are there so the people of Britain and our global interests are not threatened.

Liam Fox

We don't really know what we believe in or care about until what we believe in or care about is threatened, challenged, or measured.

Sheri L. Dew

It is a fallacy to believe that a Republic of any kind can be won through the shackled Free State. You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. The Free State is British created and serves British Imperialist interests. It is the buffer erected between British Capitalism and the Irish Republic.

Liam Mellows

I am a subject of the British Crown, but whenever I have to choose between the interests of England and Canada it is manifest to me that the interests of my country are identical with those of the United States of America.

Wilfrid Laurier
