I love Christmas. I really do love Christmas. I love being with my family and I love snow. I love the music and the lights and all of it.

When a novel has 200 000 words then it is possible for the reader to experience 200 000 delights and to turn back to the first page of the book and experience them all over again perhaps more intensely.

To most men experience is like the stern lights of a ship which illuminate only the track it has passed.

Watching a peaceful death of a human being reminds us of a falling star one of a million lights in a vast sky that flares up for a brief moment only to disappear into the endless night forever.

When you see people who are really good at game shows the one common attribute is a cool head under pressure: an ability to perform as well in the studio surrounded by lights and noise as you do on your couch.

You get to bring your own sound system when you play an arena all the lights and visual stuff which I think is really cool. There's something about those old arenas where it feels larger than life.

I moved to New York last year and I love it. It's a huge change and I've always wanted to spend time there. It's like a more intense London and everything's up a few notches. The lights are brighter the pace is faster and the food's better.

A man sits in his car at the traffic lights waiting for them to go green.

I used to look like a deer in headlights on the red carpet. You step out of the car and it's bedlam. Everyone's got crazy eyes.

I know a lot about cars man. I can look at any car's headlights and tell you exactly which way it's coming.

It's like driving a car at night. You never see further than your headlights but you can make the whole trip that way.

I replaced the headlights in my car with strobe lights so it looks like I'm the only one moving.

I hooked up my accelerator pedal in my car to my brake lights. I hit the gas people behind me stop and I'm gone.

As I approach my 88th birthday it's become apparent to me that my eyes and ears among other appurtenances aren't quite what they used to be. The prospect of long flights to wherever in search of whatever are not quite as appealing.

My best birth control now is just to leave the lights on.

What delights us in visible beauty is the invisible.

A great attitude does much more than turn on the lights in our worlds it seems to magically connect us to all sorts of serendipitous opportunities that were somehow absent before the change.
