"I think Singapore is one of the great cities of the world." — Marco Pierre White

I came from a hard, working-class world which, since my mother's death, had been dominated by men. I hadn't been encouraged to talk about the burden of grief, and because I was severely underdeveloped when it came to sharing my emotions, I mustn't have been the most communicative husband.

I don't believe I've ever truly been in love because I don't believe that I've known myself well enough in the past to allow someone to love me.

I'm naturally an introvert.

Once you accept and understand yourself, you do things for the right reasons, not the wrong ones, rather than being fuelled by your insecurities.

I never met a man who worked harder than me.

We all make mistakes. God knows I've made more than anyone else I know.

I just can't stand Tony Blair.

A lot of people say I look like a rock star or a designer punk. But I swear it's the job that has carved my face. It's the hours, the stress, and the pressure. It's not me trying to look like this.
