I like patterns, anything fun. I think as we get older, we tend to get boring with our clothes.

I was like one of those nauseatingly nice children. I was very, very well behaved and boring.

We would all be incredibly boring to a vampire who is 400, 500 years old.

I don't worry anymore about where's the big hangout Tuesday night, Friday. Couldn't tell you and no one comes to me for advice anymore in those areas anymore, so real boring I would say.

Scholarship was one thing, drudgery another. I very soon concluded that nothing would induce me to read, let alone make notes on, hundreds and hundreds of very, very, very boring books.

If I present a boring personal life to my readers, it's going to be harder for them to think of my novels as thrilling.

I don't want to live in a militarised country behind an iron curtain. It's boring. Been there and seen the movie. I've done that.

Well, it's 15 years since Sex, Lies And Videotape, and if you hang around long enough you're having the same arguments with just a new set of people every few years and it gets boring.

I was a boring man but a reflective man.

Adults get more confused by social worker jargon. Unlike children, they are also less likely to see two sides of an argument, and they no longer think they can make the world a better place. That can make them rather boring, I suppose.

What can happen if a young reader picks up a book he/she isn't yet ready for? Questions, maybe. Usually, that child puts down the book and says, 'Boring.' Or, 'I'm not ready for this.' Kids are really good at knowing what they can handle.
