Electricity is a wonderful thing. Do you realise that if we didn't have electricity, we'd be watching television by candle light?

I used to be indecisive but now I am not quite sure.

It doesn't matter how many times the audience has heard it before. If it's funny, it's funny.

They always say start at the bottom if you want to learn something. But suppose you want to learn to swim?

You know, somebody actually complimented me on my driving today. They left a little note on the windscreen, it said 'Parking Fine.'

Much reading is an oppression of the mind, and extinguishes the natural candle, which is the reason of so many senseless scholars in the world.

The gospel needs to be preached all over the world. You cannot light a candle and put it under a roof.

I like to see the world from different levels. Even when I'm making a candle or designing a piece, I like to sit on the floor to polish or make it from scratch. I haven't seen really tough times, but my husband has come up the hard way. He has even seen poverty.

I hold no candle for George Osborne whatsoever. He has no strategic skills, is a hopeless chancellor, has no idea how most people have to live and his policies are failing and hurting millions.
