Text Quotes
When I came to Britain I was in awe of the British press, afraid of them. But they’re not as ferocious as people think. In some instances they are, but when it comes to taking on power they’re really deferential. (Britain Quotes)
Britain is still seen as a beacon for decency, for democracy, for vigorous judges upholding the rule of law and, dare I say it, a free press. I respect the press in theory, but when you see some of the things it writes about you, it’s not exactly a happy relationship. (Britain Quotes)
Britain punches way above its weight in science, and I think we need to continue to do that, and anything that makes it easier to bring scientists in will be very welcome. (Britain Quotes)
The old men running the industry just have not got a clue. They’ve got to come to terms with the fact that Britain is no longer a totally white place where people ride horses, wear long frocks and drink tea. The national dish is no longer fish and chips; it’s curry. (Britain Quotes)
In Britain, there’s kids who grew up in London and then kids who didn’t. You become quite street wise. It’s such a big city, and everyone is moving and trying to get on with their lives. You don’t have the everyday village quality like, ‘Hello, how are you? Would you like your tea?’ It’s more like, ‘Get out my way.’ But I’m very proud of London. (Britain Quotes)
One thing about television in Britain is that they’re so scared about complaints. It curbs a lot of drama. (Britain Quotes)
Television of course actually started in Britain in 1936, and it was a monopoly, and there was only one broadcaster and it operated on a license which is not the same as a government grant. (Britain Quotes)
When I was growing up, I despised Irishness. I felt our music, our television and our books were just poor imitations of what came out of Britain and America. I was all set to abandon it entirely. (Britain Quotes)
As parents, can we counter the effect of television violence? One worrying feature in Britain is that so many TV sets are in a child’s bedroom; this means that the mediating effect of watching with a parent, the ability to discuss and interpret what has been seen, is lost. (Britain Quotes)
In Britain, you don’t usually learn about evolution until you are about 15. I should have thought that you should start at about 8. But I could be wrong about that. (Britain Quotes)
Britain in 1939 and 1940 really thought they were going to lose the war. It looked like they were going to lose. There was bombing every day, and people were literally starving. (Britain Quotes)
I promised to run the most open and transparent administration in Britain. That is why, with this brutally honest and unprecedented progress report, I am determined to level with Londoners. (Britain Quotes)
One of the most heartening phenomena in today’s Britain is the great diversity of the modern nerd - the nerd is out and proud, and while she may love ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ merchandise more than is strictly warranted, she is in every way to be cherished as an exemplar of cosmopolitanism and tolerance. (Britain Quotes)
Labour’s task for government is to build consent for an outward-looking Britain as the best way to advance not just our interests, but also our values at a time of challenge, both at home and abroad. (Britain Quotes)
Manufacturing doesn’t just mean building cars and metal-bashing; it includes making pharmaceuticals and hi-tech electronics. A crucial part of the process is the research and development that allows better and greener products to come to market. Britain has traditionally had a strong science and engineering base. (Britain Quotes)
When the Americans are behind you, they’re behind you 100%, and this gives you real confidence as an architect. They expect you to lead a building project - to make the kind of big and costly decisions that, in Britain, have been handed over to project managers and cost-cutters. (Britain Quotes)
The challenges facing Britain required not just a cool head, but a heart burning with the desire for change - not business as usual but a bold vision. (Britain Quotes)
What everybody forgets is that when I was a journalist in Britain and in the United States, I was always a Canadian. And the price of expatriation does not go down, it goes up. I never felt part of the political common sense of Britain. I never felt it in the United States. I had no natural home in Britain and the U.S. (Britain Quotes)
A recent study by David Green and Laura Casper, ‘Delay, Denial and Dilution,’ written for the London-based Institute of Economic Affairs, concludes that the World Health Organization calculated that Britain has as many as 25,000 unnecessary cancer deaths a year because of under-provision of care. (Britain Quotes)
On a per capita basis, Britain is responsible for more of the carbon dioxide now in the atmosphere than any other nation on Earth because it has been burning it from the dawn of the Industrial Revolution. (Britain Quotes)
If Britain was to close down altogether overnight, then China would take up the slack of carbon emissions in two years. If America closed down, just the growth in China’s emissions would replace America’s emissions in 12 years. (Britain Quotes)
America’s health care system is second only to Japan, Canada, Sweden, Great Britain, well ... all of Europe. But you can thank your lucky starts we don’t live in Paraguay! (Britain Quotes)
Britain should be the world’s number one center for genetic and stem cell research, building on our world leading regulatory regime in the area. (Britain Quotes)
In Britain, the centrally prescribed welfare to work system short-changes the young unemployed. Transport, housing and education are over centralised. (Britain Quotes)
We need to dig deep and give people a reason to be optimistic just as Obama is doing in America. Because in the same way that outcome of the U.S. elections will change the course of events there and around the world, so too do politics here in Britain. (Britain Quotes)
Britain is a European power. We cannot change our geography. Our involvement in the politics of European cooperation is one of necessity. Our wealth and our security depend upon it. (Britain Quotes)
The era of industrial Britain, where a large section of our workforce provided cheap labour in factories and processing goods, is over. (Britain Quotes)
Childhood in large parts of modern Britain, at any rate, has been replaced by premature adulthood, or rather adolescence (Britain Quotes)
I eat like a horse - my mother still brings me Cadbury’s chocolate from Britain; I do have a very healthy appetite - but I work out. (Britain Quotes)
My girlfriend’s dad runs the Prostate Centre on Wimpole St. in London, and he’s chairman of Prostate U.K., which I think is the second-largest prostate cancer charity in Britain. (Britain Quotes)
