They Said What? ON THIS WEEKEND

Huddersfield Daily Examiner (Huddersfield, England), Oct 4, 2008

"I don't know what I would do if I stopped. I would just go to seed" - Sir David Attenborough, saying he has no plans to retire.

"Flirtation, fun and frottage are so much more rejuvenating than a facelift. The truth is, ageing is nothing more than a case of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it don't matter" - Best-selling novelist Kathy Lette.

"Shirley MacLaine would deliberately discomfit me. She once flicked open my shirt button, and said 'We pop them off and the wives sew them back on"' - Sir Michael Parkinson.

"Whereas Tony Blair always seemed to be masquerading as a human being, David Cameron sounds and behaves like the real thing" - Former Fleet Street editor Sir Max Hastings.

"She's very ignorant.

Ignorance is an American characteristic.

To me, Sarah Palin and John McCain look like a poster for a San Diego news channel" - Film-maker Oliver Stone on the Republican presidential hopeful and his running mate.

"The biggest critics of my books are people who never read them" - writer Jackie Collins who was born on October 4, 1941
