Boris
Yeltsin : Russian President
I especially love driving down a hill
directly at a tree and swerving to one side at the last moment. That's my
way to relax.

Will Young
: British singer and winner of the tv show Pop
Idol
On Simon Cowell's put downs during
Pop Idol: .... I know my Dad would've been
sitting there saying, "You're not taking that my boy! Annabel! Get the
shotgun!"
It was a very cheesy experience. But I'm
proud of who I am and if people think I'm cheesy, I'll be cheesy and
proud.
I signed my first autograph the other day.
It was my Grandma, but that doesn't matter!
I tried to do a fashion shoot once, and I
wasn't very good at it. I looked a bit of a plonker.
On the worst day of his life:
I had a hangover and I was going to Manchester to attend a lecture given
by an examiner. I missed my train and it took me seven hours to get there.
I also lost my wallet and the keys to my house. I only got to hear the
last few minutes of the lecture and then the guy said that I needn't have
made the effort because he could have sent me the notes through the post.
Aged 4, opening his
presents:
That bastard Santa didn't get me any Lego!

Henry
Youngman : US (English-born)
comedian/violinist
When I go to a restaurant I always ask the manager, "Give
me a table near a waiter."
Zsa Zsa Gabor has been married so many
times she has rice marks on her face.
My dad was the town drunk. Most
of the time that's not so bad; but New York City?
I'll tell you how to beat the gambling in
Las Vegas. When you get off the airplane, walk right into the propeller.

Frank Zappa
: US rock musician/singer/songwriter
You can’t be a real country unless you have
a beer and an airline. It helps if you have some kind of a football team,
or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer.
Most rock journalism is people who can't
write interviewing people who can't talk for people who can't read.

Catherine Zeta-Jones
: British actress
I've never been cool and I probably never
will. But Darling Buds of May Was watched by 23 million people and you're
not telling me that it was all old grannies in Hull.
Michael is a really great actor. He can
look like he's Fred Astaire - you just can't look at his feet. So, I just
have to maneouvre him myself and get my feet away from his so he doesn't
step on my toes. But from the waist up, he's sensational.
I'm the ultimate Hollywood babe. I drive a
Range Rover with a cell phone, and if you need to reach me you can page
me, beep me, fax me or e-mail me. And even if you do all of the above, I
still might not return your call.
Referring to her topless photos:
Who cares? Let's get it out there, while it lasts. At 70, I'll be throwing
them over my shoulders. They'll become a wrap - put some fox fur on the
ends, or something.
Referring to the Press:
I just want to warn them that I've saved my sword from The Mask of Zorro
and that I know how to use it.
Referring to her
pregnancy:
I got up to about 180lbs. Of course one breast was, like, half of that.
