Death always seems to be around me.

I have the feeling that everybody was waiting for me to die so they could rediscover me. Then they found out I'm not dead yet, so they are rediscovering me while I'm still alive.

I wait for death and journalists.

I'm really lucky I'm still around. Everybody expected me to die next... But it was always someone else instead of me.

I have died in enough TV and films.

It's not lost on me that everyone dies, but some people have a kind of immortality about them, and you can't imagine that they will ever be gone.

I lived for nearly seven years with the awareness that death was my everyday companion.

I've always been somebody who's acutely aware of my mortality.

So far things are going my way. I am known in the hospice as The Man Who Wouldn't Die. I don't know if this is true or not, but I think some people, not many, are starting to wonder why I'm still around.

A lot of people thought I'd died, because of your coverage, they know I'm still around.
