I'd heard of the name 'Big Brother' before. I didn't realize that it was on TV for 20 years. My manager told me, ''Big Brother' wants you.' I said, 'I don't feel like watching it, and I don't know what I'm getting into.'

Metta World Peace

The term Big Brother is from George Orwell's book 1984 - where everyone's watched over by a network of cameras called Big Brother. I've never understood why Orwell chose that phrase for somebody watching you all the time. Isn't that more like Creepy Uncle?

Craig Ferguson

Big Brother isn’t watching. He’s singing and dancing. He’s pulling rabbits out of a hat. Big Brother’s busy holding your attention every moment you’re awake. He’s making sure you’re always distracted. He’s making sure you’re fully absorbed.

Chuck Palahniuk

Big Brother is watching... look busy.

Brandon Boyd

I have never laughed as much as I did when watching 'Big Brother.'

Davina McCall

You learn more about life from watching 'Big Brother' than from reading a book.

John de Mol, Jr.

It's about story; it is a social experiment, and people take that into account when they're watching 'Big Brother.'

Nina Tassler

None of the people watching 'Big Brother' will bring you chicken soup if you get sick.

Robert D. Putnam

Whether or not Big Brother is watching us, we certainly have to watch him, which may be even worse.

Wilfrid Sheed

I made a conscious decision to stop watching 'Big Brother.' I was an avid fan, but I felt it was time to move on.

Michael Ball

I remember watching a 'Big Brother' contestant saying that she wanted to be a footballer's wife. I thought, 'What is the world coming to?'

Jane Fallon

I am a 'Big Brother' fan, and I watched the first season of 'Celebrity Big Brother' as well.

Eva Marie

I cannot believe that people really sit and devote hours of their lives watching reality TV like 'Big Brother.'

Jonathan Agnew

Parties don't thrill me. I like sitting at home with a tub of Chunky Monkey ice cream watching Big Brother or Friends.

Alex Pettyfer

A circus here, a circus there; here today, gone tomorrow. Big Brother watching you. Fear eats the soul.

David Peace

It's always this thing about being the big brother and the little brother coming to try to overtake the big brother. That always happens in families and in clubs - the young player hoping to take the old player's position - and City are hoping to overtake United. I don't think they'll ever be able to, though.
