“I'd have liked to have been a bit more intellectual. I'd have liked to...” — Terry Wogan Quote

I'd have liked to have been a bit more intellectual. I'd have liked to have had more brains.

I have great fun with the Togs - Terry's Old Geezers and Gals. They're a group that formed around me over the years of my radio shows. They are loyal to me and I'm loyal to them, so I've been to their conventions - Leicester University gives us their campus.

My life has been a happy accident. Anybody who succeeds in anything should count their lucky stars, because that's the biggest element. It's not hard work; it's not necessarily talent.

I have to say, without getting up on a soapbox, I find these reality shows absolutely disgusting.

I'm really interested in the new nonfiction. I think the hyper-digital culture has changed our brains in ways we cannot begin to fathom.

Sure, our three-pound brains might be inadequate to understand the universe. But perhaps they're just good enough to build something that can.

I eat 'The Walking Dead' like its made of brains. Can't even watch the show, I love the book so much.

In school, we learn that mistakes translate into bad grades. This unfortunate lesson gets burned into our brains, and we go through life shunning challenges that might end in failure.

We are all cognitive misers. Our brains do not expend mental resources thoroughly examining problems when snap judgments will do.
