During the war, my mother used to take me to the local repertory theatre on a Monday night, and we used to get two seats for the price of one, for nine pence, in the gods.

I was on stage and I was like I will pay someone to do my time, not only will I expect NOT to be paid, but I will pay someone if I can run off stage right now. It was so bad.

We did a gig at the Marquee and we were supposed to be paid five pounds but we never got it, and it cost us something like 10 pounds in petrol to get there to do it. So what we did was steal some equipment from The Marquee.

Once a film costs a certain amount of money, things have to round off.

I've had money thrown onstage, dollars, couple of five-dollar bills. I took the money, but it wasn't much.

Go where you will, if a shilling can there be procured, you may expect to meet with individuals in search of it.

My Mum brought me up to believe that if you look after the pennies then the pounds look after themselves, and I could never do it.

In this year 1634, I purchased the moiety of thirteen houses in the Strand for five hundred and thirty pounds.

I needed to pay for my horses in Warwickshire, and I couldn't do that off a waitress' wage.

If had a penny for every strange look I've gotten from strangers on the street I'd have about 10 to 15 dollars, which is a lot when you're dealing with pennies.
