“One mustn't mistake bling for excellence, just as one mustn't mistake ...” — Kevin McCloud Quote

One mustn't mistake bling for excellence, just as one mustn't mistake quiet for mediocre.

My favourite authors include Trollope and Dickens.

I've forgiven all my enemies - even those who have stolen money from me.

I've got lots of friends who are musicians, and there is a fair proportion of broken marriages and relationships as a result. You are on the move all the time. It's difficult if you have kids, and it's hard to make money unless you are in the premier league.

My father, an engineer, was the gentlest man I knew.

I've zeroed in on what you would call action and excellence... Everybody who does anything to try to succeed has to give the best of themselves, and art has made me pull the best out of myself.

The excellence, the beauty, the poetry, the magic is what food is about and that comes from all parts of the world.

Excellence always sells.

Nothing is ever perfect, but excellence is good enough.

Some people have greatness thrust upon them. Very few have excellence thrust upon them.
