I understand why people might be interested. But I just don't talk about my personal life. It's a decision I made a long time ago, before I ever even knew anyone would be interested in my personal life.

Why should anyone be interested in my life? It's the prurience I find so extraordinary. Why, why, oh why should my private life be of any interest to the public? The only people who should be interested are my friends.

If we were not all so interested in ourselves, life would be so uninteresting that none of us would be able to endure it.

I really have no interest in myself.

If people take an interest in you and they think there's half a chance, they might hang on. It's dreadful.

I've been perfectly happily married for 25 years, and have a nice life. Inane things don't interest me.

The events of my life are too unimportant, and have too little interest for any person not of my immediate family, to render them worth communicating or preserving.

My interest in life comes from setting myself huge, apparently unachievable challenges and trying to rise above them.

I'm not the kind of person that would step on people just to get where I wanted to be, but I have crossed moral boundaries when I've either been afraid or desperate.
